We're so lucky that they didn't honor our paid-in-advance reservations

When my girlfriend and I got to Sunshine House on a very hot and humid Friday afternoon, we were frightened by the vandalized buildings that led to the building. We took the dirty elevator up only to wait in front of their reception desk for close to an hour without anybody showing up to talk to us. Finally, a very rude voice in PA system told us to go downstairs. There, we were told that our booking was no good, and by now we were glad that we would be freed from such a dump. Simona, the lobby receptionist was a bit polite, but she still refused to help us find a new place. We ended up leaving our luggage at Termini while we searched for another hotel in a better part of town. Given the danger, filth, and poor service at Sunshine House, we were glad to pay a little bit more and stay somewhere else. Whatever you do, do not stay at, or in the neighborhood, of Sunshine House. Try Via Nazionale, they have many hotels there and, without advertising for the one where we stayed, the area is safer even at night. Whereas, Sunshine House was scary even at daytime.

I am in Italy at the moment after leaving the so called "Sunshine house".

In short, no water, air-con broken, tv broken and a very rude old man at front desk whom reacts to these issues by shouting.

There are many decent hotels in the area but this is definetly not one of them DO NOT STAY THERE!

Arrived in late evening with 2 young children and confirmed booking in hand to be told there was no reservation. Not fun. Eventually they gave us a more expensive room for one night but we had to treck across Rome to a new (much better) hotel next morning. Lift was filthy. Staff in hotel tried to be helpful but boss who does bookings isn't there. Basically don't book because they are unreliable and building is dirty.

You get off the train. Drag your luggage to your Hotel. You have your confirmation in hand. You're tired and you just want to check in and get on with your experience in Rome. But, at the Sunshine House they say they don't have your reservation. And they don't care either. That was six of us (3 rooms booked). We got a little worried when 2 others left the Hotel saying they had a reservation not honored as well. This was no fun. Don't do it!!

DONT stay here. Three couples booked rooms for end of October and all three of us received confirmations back on email. on arrival, NO ROOMS. They had sold all of our rooms and gave us no help in finding another set of rooms. We had to pay extra and double bunk in two rooms that evening. The guy at the front desk told us that we had to go to the rail station and stand in line for the Hotel Booking agency and he offered no help. we met another couple leaving who had the same thing told to them. in total, four rooms confirmed and then resold. these guys are crooks and should be SHUT DOWN.
