A taxi to this hotel from Leonardo airport was 45 euros. A train to Termini station in Rome and subway to Cornelia would have cost 13 euros per person but at night don't do it as you won't find the hotel easily and you will be scared when you get off the subway and try to make the ten minute walk to the hotel . The Marc Aurelia is in the middle of a very run down residential area with grafitti and dog pooh everywhere. The Hotel looks like it was built in the seventies and nothing has been done to it since. We stayed on the sixth floor and the wallpaper was hanging off the walls where it joined the extensively stained ceiling. It appeared the roof had leaked at some point. If we had had our three children with us I think my wife would have cried. As it was the room was clean, the sheets and towels were well laundered and the bathroom was okay. The hotel receptionist gave us an information sheet on arrival which included details of the nearest bus and subway stations. It also stated that bus/subway tickets could be purchased from the newsagent opposite. Don't buy them there! We paid 11 euros each for a 3 day travel pass only to discover that the shop owner had given us 1 day tickets valued at 4 euros. When we complained he just shrugged his shoulders and refused to give us our money back. We complained to the hotel receptionist who also just shrugged his shoulders. I asked for the police and was told there was no point contacting them. I was then given some single journey passes by the receptionist to get us back into Rome. This was very annoying. I would not stay here again but it was okay for a cheap trip.

Our faces began to drop as we got closer in the Taxi to the Hotel, graffiti increased, buildings started to have bars on the windows appear. Once in side the Hotel we felt like we had stepped into a time warp and had gone back to the 1970's, not sure anything has been done to the place since then, although the rooms did have new laminate wood floors, which where noisy but clean.

The lifts where slow and we thought we would get stuck in them, when the doors opened to our floor we where greated by a foul smell we ran to our room not drawing breath until we where able to open our door and get away from the smell in the hall.

The rooms where very basic, but were clean. The bed was very hard and sleeping on the metro chairs may have been more comfy. The aircon was old and should have been in a museum. It seemed to work a little until the hotel switched it off at 4am, the 1st night and then it stopped working altogether the next night. The hot water was also not working, not a good way to start the day. Opening the window was possible however made it very noisy and so difficult to sleep.

the breakfast had a bit of selection, cereal, buns, croissants, cheese and ham, but not of a particularly good quality. And so we eat breakfast elsewhere the next 2 mornings.

Hotel was relatively close (15min walk) to the Metro station, Cornelia, which was easy to navigate, however the walk to it along the footpath meant dodging dog poo and horrible, smells of garbage.

We stayed at this hotel for three nights as it was part of a tour package. The room was very basic and sure the bathroom was a little run down. Breakfast was OK (breads and some cheese& ham). Internet is not free; I think it was 2 Euros per half an hour or more. There is a bar in the lobby and from what I heard drinks were expensive. The hotel is in a "rural" area of Rome and the closest metro is about 10 min walk. Overall I'll only stay in this hotel in the future if I found a good deal next time I'll stay closer to Rome "downtown". And remember the hotel is VERY basic not exactly a 4 stars.

Was airmiles recommended so went for it on a 3 day stay. Had a stressful journey, but staff were friendly and helpful so got us into a better holiday mood! Clean rooms, comfy beds and a good shower. Breakfast was cereal, pastries, bread with ham and cheese and a selection of jams and teas etc. Nothing special really but fine to stock up on carbs for walking around Rome. 10 mins leisurely walk to Cornelia metro station, then 20 to Termini, so was very convenient. Surrounding area was lined with shops so felt safe walking through at night, and had newsagents opposite hotel which was ideal for buying metrebus tickets.
When other parts of the holiday had their hiccups, our stay at this hotel was nothing but smooth. Value for money.

We stayed at this hotel for 3 days. It was located close to the metro station about 10 min away on foot. Very quiet place , not a luxury one but it was worth its money. Nice breakfast and helpful people at reception. The closest metro station is about 20 min from rome's central station. At night you can return by bus.
