clean, quiet small hotel near to Spanish Steps; within easy walking distance of all Roman attractions from Villa Borgese to Vatican; surrounded by restaurants and shops; very helpful staff with good command of English, good continental breakfast, free internet in spacious lounge - a real gem of a small hotel

Location is perfect, rooms are nice, breakfasts are wonderful, staff is very helpful and the price is reasonable. The only drawback is lugging suitcases up 3 flights of stairs.

3 women on a shopping tour in Rome. According to the reviews on tripadvisor we have choosen this hotel, where we stayed for 3 nights in a triple room. The room was ok sizewise, but the bathroom far too small. Our room was facing the patio in the back which was very noisy during night time. We did not find out if there was any work going on in that building. The breakfast was good (keep in mind that Italians are not breakfaster!), the service as well.
The location is perfect: all good shopping streets and sightseeings are nearby. The price was reasonable for the location.

This place was very comfortable. I would go back there again. Small place, peace and quiet- better than busy large hotel, I thought. The people there were so nice and helpful. We took a taxi from the airport to the hotel, and the driver tried to charge us 60euros. I insisted that the fare from the airport to the heart of Rome is fixed 40euros, but he would not listen. So I went up to the hotel and asked the front staff to come outside and talk to the driver- we paid 40euros.
Only the down side of this place but minor one, is that the office is located in the 2nd. floor, and there is no elevator. Of course they will help you, so it shouldn't be a too much of problem.
They had overbooked us, and we were transported to the Best Western hotel right by the Vatican. They paid for the taxi ride there, and back the next day.
So the second night, we got to stay there. The room we stayed was right outside of the office- it looked like a really skinny apartment complete with a small kitchen area. We loved it so much we wished we could have just rent the room and lived there for a while.
The location was also great. Right in the middle of the busy shopping street, but all the expensive stores. We really didn't go into any of the stores nearby. Spanish steps is also right by.
Clean bathroom. Clean bath tub.
Breakfast was okay. Cappuccino and a small buffet. The atmosphere of the breakfast room is nice.

Let me start with the positives. The hotel is nicely decorated. The double room we ended up in was spacious and pleasant. The staff were friendly. The lounge area was pleasant and the water and soda in the mini bar were free. It's in a very good location.

The only problem was the absolute lack of sleep!

When we got there there was a mix up in the booking and we got a twin room. This room was really half a room with the single beds laid out end to end as they would not fit side by side.

We were moved to a double room for the following night. The main difficulty we then experienced was the noise. It would seem that really this hotel is an old apartment. The bedroom doors are regular doors one might have at home, there's a crack of light visible under the door and so all the sounds travel.

My night went as follows:
12am - went to bed
12.30am - desk porter opens can of soda
12.45am - porter coughing
12.55am - difficulty with fax machine, phone rings several times however not going through to fax. problem resolved over a period of half a hour.
1am - other guests ring bell at reception, come in a chat to porter
1.30(?)am - porter has second can
1.45(?)am - more coughing
5.45am - driver arrives to take guests to airport, discussion ensues with porter about same for 15mins
6am - guests leave wheeling bags on wooden floor
6am - person arrives to prepare for breakfast - discussion with desk porter
6.15-7am - a lot of plates being moved about
7am - american guests up and about ready to see sights, discussion in corridor re same for 10-15mins.

A similar pattern occurred for all the nights we stayed. At 200 euro a night I think it's the most expensive hotel per minute of sleep I've ever stayed in. Unless you're a really really heavy sleeper I would not recommend this hotel.
