I visited Rome with my brother in early October. We were looking for a clean and safe hotel at a budget price. This hotel is a little farther out from the tourist center in a very safe bustling Vatican neighborhood. If you are comfortable walking you could easily walk over the many foot bridges (20 mins) from the Castel Sant Angelo into the heart of Rome and still do a whole lot of sightseeing along the way. If you want to use public transportation, there is a bus stop 1 block away where you can take the express bus into the Termini Station and other destinations. If you prefer the subway, you could walk 10 minutes to the Ottaviano stop and go into the city. The hotel is 2 blocks from the Castel Sant Angelo and 2 blocks away from the Vatican sites. Expect clean rooms, modern bathrooms, no telephone, a small color TV, safe, and air conditioning in a small bed and breakfast environment. Breakfast is self serve from the refrigerator which is stocked with some orange juice, yogurt, cheese, and milk. Coffee maker and toaster are at your disposal. Be advised that although the website says internet access in every room this is is not exactly true. You need to ask the owner for the software that has to be installed on your computer. We were never brought the software even though we asked for it!
