YES, YES, YES to Residenza Argentina. This fantastic little boutique hotel was our home away from home in Rome. Firstly, the staff were absolutely outstanding. They are helpful, friendly and willing to do almost anything to ensure your stay is comfortable. They welcomed us at night and greeted us with a smile in the morning. We stayed in the hotel both at the beginning and the end of our trip, so we had Room 4 (with a jacuzzi) for the first few nights and then Room 6 for our final night. Both were fantastic. The rooms are clean, well cared-for and very well maintained. We had clean towels every day when we returned from our sightseeing and there is plenty of soap and shampoo provided. The morning breakfast was excellent - and the cappuccinos were a great way to start our day. By paying 6 Euro for our entire stay, we have free access to a computer and the Internet which we used to communicate with home on a regular basis. There is a real sense of security also in the hotel. You have to buzz in from the street and you first enter two large courtyards. You then have to buzz once again to be let into the building itself, where you climb into the VERY small elevator for the journey up to the third floor hotel. You then have to buzz once again to get into the actual hotel. All of this sounds a little awkward - but it is not at all - easy as can be. The location of the hotel itself is absolutely perfect. It is right in Largo Argentina - a bit of a transportation hub. From there, you can catch a bus or a tram right outside the hotel door. It is within walking distance to Piazza Venezia (a hub) and also within walking distance to the large attractions: Campo dei Fiori (5 minutes), Piazza Navona (5 minutes), the Pantheon (5 minutes), the Colisseum (10 minutes), Travestere area (10 minutes). The square outside of the hotel is also a taxi waiting area so you can catch a cab to Termini if required.
Overall, I have to give this hotel a 10+++. We loved every aspect of it, will recommend it to all of our friends who are planning on a visit to Rome, and we will DEFINITELY return to this hotel. Our home away from home!
