I only had a few requirements for the hotel we stayed at in Rome, it had to be within walking distance of the train station and under $100. This hotel was not any where in my top 5 choices but everything else was booked. We had several complaints with the first being how loud the traffic was. The hotel is not on a major street so you wouldn't think it would have been a problem but traffic coming in both directions by the train station are forced to turn down the small street. So all you could hear around the clock were buses, cars and motorcylces braking and then accelerating. I tried ear plugs and wrapping a pillow around my head but it did not help. The beds were ridiculously uncomfortable, you could feel every single spring in your back. I resorted to layering extra blankets below the sheets. My only saving grace in getting any sleep was being exhausted from the heat & large amount of walking we did every day. The room & bathroom were at least large but very dingy with carpeting that appeared to be 20 years out, complete with all the stains, quite disgusting. Breakfast was sad compared to all the other hotels we stayed in during our trip. Also, the AC is controlled by the front desk, you have to call to get it adjusted, very strange!

I was looking for a good budget hotel for my honeymoon and I chose this hotel based on reviews I read in venere. It did not disappoint me at all. The location is really close to Termini station. The hotel is within walking distance of the Colosseum and for those like me and my wife who like to walk a lot, Rome is not that big (at least no the touristic area) and it is possible to get to most places walking.If you´re not in the walking mood,lots of regular bus lines go to Termini station,which is also a Metro station, so it is easy to get anywhere. There are also hop on -hop off tourist buses that depart from Termini station.
The staff was friendly, the room size was good,it was clean and the overall service was great.

Family run hotel, very near to Termini. Nice and clean rooms, compared with the Italian standards good breakfast. The street side is noisy a little bit, so ask for a room looking to the garden. Very friendly staff. Minor repairs are required, but at all - especially the friendly staff - excellent
