I can't really praise this hotel enough. The location is a little way out of town (a brief Metro ride then a 10 minute walk) but as long as you realise this it's absolutely fine. Neighbourhood is quiet (we had the windows open all night) and feels safe... as mentioned by an earlier reviewer it's full of locals going about their daily business, rather than hoards of tourists. In fact the walk to the Metro station became one of the interesting highpoints of each day.

Desk staff were extremely friendly throughout our stay.

The room itself was extremely clean, with fresh bedding and towels daily. It had clearly been (re?)decorated quite recently. Sky TV was a nice touch too, for winding down before bedtime... a hint - on many channels you can get English audio on dubbed US programmes by pressing the information button and choosing "Inglese".

Breakfast was great - loads of fresh pastries, fruit, cereals, rolls etc, and the staff were extremely helpful. Coffee was a bit stewed, but you can't have everything!

If we ever go back to Rome we'll almost certainly stay there again.

FIRST of all. they illegally charged my credit card of $400.00 THAT I NEVER SIGNED To. i looked at my statement a week after i got home and they charged me a random 400 i will NEVER stay there again and do not reccomend it to anyone. the staff was rude and unkind.

DONT GO they charge you when you dont even know it!

After talking to a few friends about taking the train, my Mom and I decided to board the Leonardo Express from FCO airport, then tranfer to the Metro, and Finally get off at the Lepanto stop and walk from there. The walk from the metro was only about 10 minutes, and we saved A LOT of money by avoiding a taxi. The hotel is on a quiet street which is wonderful, we got a great nights sleep every night.

The front staff is very helpful, and spoke excellent english. Only downside- DO NOT go to the restaurant they recommend, the food was TERRIBLE, just stick with the small pizza places that are in the area. Our room it self was small, but perfect for what we wanted. The shower had hot water and we had fresh towels every day.

The breakfast was a lot bigger than I was expecting. They had fresh juice and a nice dessert spread daily, the hours were perfect, we just woke up, ate and left.

Like I said earlier, the Metro is the way to go, we made it to all the hot spots, even Ostia Antiqa (sp) for only 16 Euro for the week! Cant beat that. The walk to the metro was only about 10 mins, and we passed by open air markets, and even found a grocery store where we stocked up on water and chips at.

Overall we had the best time, and I would definately stay at this hotel again and again.

This is a very good find. Very clean hotel. Excellent reception staff and always helpful Although I would recommend NOT eating in the trattoria they recommend. The hotel is slightly out of city centre but that wasn't a problem for us as we are always prepared to walk.The hotel is located on a quiet street, nearest metro is Lepanto ( about 10 mins walk away).
Breakfast was adequate, plenty of it and each morning they replenished the cakes and rolls. Would definitely stay there again.
