The hotel is very close to Termini Station and the main sites of Rome so in few minutes you can get everywhere by tube or bus!
The price of the room (65€ pro night for a double room) is good for the services that they offer! Clean room and bathroom for a 2 stars hotel!
The only one thing that we suggest to improve is breakfast ..they should increase the choice of the food (any ham, salami, sausages, cheese., eggs...) and try to to be more polite (there was a lazy woman that gazed us all the time and served hot drinks without coffee spoons!).

Anyway I recommend this hotel to everyone that is planning a wonderful holiday in this everlasting city.

Having stayed at this hotel in September this year I wanted to add a review of my own.

My boyfriend and I stayed for 6 nights and having been booked into the hotel by clients my boyfriend was working for in Rome we did not know what to expect.

We found the hotel very easily and its proximity to the station is great so not too much dragging of suitcases, although we were tired when we arrived outside.

We checked in which was a little difficult due to the language barrier and the fact we had not booked the room ourselves and it was under a name we were not aware of.

We were shown to our room on the 6th Floor by who we assumed was the manager, whose English was limited but he was very polite. Our room was a twin but we were informed we would be moved to a double room for the last 2 nights of our stay. The room was tiny and we felt dissappointed as it was basic, not even a fridge to store water. However the room was spotlessly clean and the bathroom too- I can honestly say I have never seen such a clean room!

Each day we were greeted by the staff who were really friendly and had a good sense of humour and even had some quirky phrases to make you laugh. They were particularly helpful to me as I was unwell during my stay and bought some throat sweets from a local pharmacy but being 6 months pregnant was worried about taking them as the information was in Italian. They were absolutely great in translating the words and understood what I was implying. They asked me constantly how I was feeling as we went in and out and were never short of a smile.

On the first few nights we were unlucky to have a group of lads staying in the room next to us who were very very noisy and disruptive. On the second night we thought we had had just about enough and were going to complain in the morning.

We didnt have to they informed us that they had removed the lads from the hotel and hoped we would enjoy the rest of our stay.

I would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fuss free stay in a basic but comfortable hotel.

My only concern was getting in and out of the city itself, the metro ran from the station but did not go all that close to the main sites so a lot of walking was required. The red Bus 110, tourist hop on and off was superb for getting around but the last bus was around 7pm so getting into the centr ein the evening was only achieveable by metro and then walking.

Being 6 months pregnant I found this exhausting and would suggest you stay somewhere closer to the sites if walking is an issue for you.

All in all a lovely hotel with friendly helpful staff.

right 1st off when we arrived we had already emailed them to say we were getting in late. so imagine our surprise when we turned up, had our passports taken off us and were given out to for being late.
they then threw us up into our room which was ok. but hard not to notice on the way up the holes in the walls and the shitty lift which looked like it would break down.
the breakfast was a joke as in the girl behind the counter pointed at the stuff and we helped ourselves from the counter while she did nothing. she then sat and stared at us while we ate.
the staff were rude and inconsiderate. they then shut the breakfast room for 2 mornings and we had to go downstairs to eat. they made it clear they didn't want us there and threw the food and knives down in front of us and then mocked and shouted at each other loudly in italian while we ate. lovely.
we got the feeling we were the only 2 people in the hotel and that we were resented for it.
worst waste of my money ever. i seriously urge people to make use of their money and go elsewhere. and to top all this off - i saw 2 people shooting up just outside the hotel. that is the area we were staying in. seriously disapointing.
oh and they dont speak english. at all. and resent trying to.

  • Liked — i hated it. everything about it
  • Disliked — the staff were so rude.

This little hotel is about a 5 minute walk from Termini and easy access to all attractions within the Historical Centre. It shares the building with Yellow Hostel, but the rooms are located on various floors at the back half of the building. Our room was located on the 3rd floor and well looked after in a secure corridor. We had a family (deluxe) room, which had ample room in both the room itself and the bathroom. The towels were like table cloths, so this is the only thing you could actually fault them for. Breakfast is included with the rate and is severed upstairs on the patio with a most wonderful view. Staff were friendly and very patient with our half Italian/English. Lots of amenities within easy walk - supermarkets, internet points, eateries, laundromats etc. The area was very safe to walk around, even at night, which we did most nights.

The only other thing that we thought the hotel could improve on is to install mini-fridges in its rooms. Coming from Australia we like our drinks cold and you certainly can't get that in Europe.

We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. In fact we tried to book an additional night in June before we flew out but the hotel was fully booked.

  • Liked — Location and cleanliness
  • Disliked — Lack of mini-fridge

The location was good, near Termini Station but some of the inconveniences we had were:
No air conditioning, no hairdrier, very small bathroom and the floor would get flooded after having a shower. Towels were not very good quality. Toilet seat was broken.

But what we found more upsetting was not only that the owners did not speak any English but the rude attitude towards us from the very beggining. They only seemed to care about their bussines but not the quality of service offered to the customers.
To be honest we couldn´t wait to get out of their hotel. I would not recommend this hotels to anybody.
Hope you have a better experience and enjoy your holidays.
