In a ten-day trip from Barcelona to Paris to Geneva to Florence to Rome, we paid the most for this horrible hotel. We booked the room for two people, as that is how many we originally were supposed to have, but due to a change in plans had three people. This was the first and only place ever to give us a hard time. We ever inquired if we could pay extra to be moved to a triple (on top of 180USD per night) but they had no availability. What, then, did they have to gain from freaking out? The guy at the desk was so rude he made my sister cry ("YOU SLEEP THREE PEOPLE, BIG TROUBLE") and upon check-out, demanded an extra 40USD from my father. My father capitulated because the guy was such a jerk and so insistent, bringing the grand totel for this ridiculous hotel to 220USD. Were this the last hotel in Rome and I already had a plane ticket, I would not stay here again.
While the rooms were okay (ours was at least clean though tiny by European standards), the set-up of the hotel was bizarre. It is situated in a larger complex, such that there are not even signs or markings of the hotel on the outside. The only indication was its name printed on one of the buzzers for entrance. Also, our room overlooked a parking lot and, as I recall, a garage or covered parking, so street noise was at times a problem. And this last thing is a minor issue but a nuisance at the time: the phone ringing actually sounded like a fire alarm, both in decibel level and tone. When the front desk called to tell us the cab was there, I thought the hotel was burning down.
