The hotel itself was nice, clean, well furnished and pleasant exterior, but wht it is in that location I will never know.

The hotel was reasonable price, but it cost us a fortune in taxis and tubes. The taxi ride was at least 20mins to the centre and cost 17 euros one night to trevi fountains. We spent more on transport than we would've for five star in centre!!

The area its in is very sub-urban, graffiti everywhere and looks like the Rome ghetto.

You have to get a bus to station, then tube to centre, at night we got a taxi there and back as didn't fancy sweaty public transport at night. The information is mis-leading abnout this hotel's location. 2km to Colosium?? No way!!

Great hotel but location terrible.

I spent 4 days with my girlfriend exploring Rome. I wasn't planning to spend a lot of money and I believe that the price for the hotel was rather good (90-100 euros). For this price I don't expect everything to be perfect but I have to say that the only problem with the hotel was it's location.

So, the hotel isn't very close to the city center and that's the only problem. You have to take the (crowded usually) bus from the closest train station for 5-8 minutes or a taxi from the city center (15 minutes/10 euros). The hotel employee at the check-in desk was more interested in his online backgammon game than actually doing his job and that's it with the negative comments.

Room was big, clean and quiet. Nice furniture and fittings. Breakfast was average. Also there is not much choice of other restaurants/bars in the area.

That's about it :)
I do suggest that you visit the hotel if you're not too sensitive to minor problems.

Regards ;)

Brilliant hotel, but the location wasnt as near - but for the price you pay its was excellent - very clean (could see your face in the floor!) the breakfeast was very nice. Staff very friendly especially one guy called Daniel who told us everything we needed to know.
All airconditioned and minibar, hairdryer and anything you want just ask the staff who were very friendly

The location is slightly out from the centre - not a short walk from the station- but the 409 bus leaves every 5-10 mins and goes to Tiburtina - which is a main bus and train station, with loads of buses and trains/metro - not much of a nightlife near the hotel - but the transport links are so good - the buses run til midnight and then theres a nightbus - also plenty of cab numbers which you can get from the hotel reception. However coz there is not much nightlife, it is very quiet so no worries of outside noise or hassle.

a little TIP: instead of getting the Leonardo express train from the Airport - get a TrenItalie train to Tiburtina - takes 45 mins and cost about 4euros each (instead of 11euros for the leonardo express) - the bus 71 leaves from tirbutina and goes to the centre of the city in 35 mins or so!

Overall very good and worth the money - definitely recommend it!

The hotel delivered what it promised. It felt like the 4* that it said.

Good service , helpful staff.

Though websites said hotel was 400m away from the Tiburtina station, we took a bus to hotel from station evry time. It was n't a short walk and had no good view worth walking. But the station was close.

Tiburtina station has frequent services to places like Venice /Pisa/Florence , that helps if you plan to visit these places while in Rome.

But there are no eat-outs around or any nightlife for party animals.
