I have just stayed in this hotel(if you could call it one) for a school trip, And it was the worst accomodation i have stayed in in my life, and ever will probably. We started off by entering the understaffed hotel, to meet a grumpy receptionest looking annoyed to see us.it took us one hour to finally get all of us in the rooms thanks to the incompetence of the receptionest. I then procceded to my room with my friends expecting a clean bed to lie on after making our long trip to Rome. But we were greeted with a smelly, dirty, termite ridden room. The sheets hadn't been changed in any of the beds, or changed for our whole 4 day trip!

The air conditioning/fridge/t.v didnt work, And most importantly the safe where our valuables were supposed to go had about 5 combos that all could open and close the safe. we asked the hotel manager to see if the safe was broken or not and were not helped at all, If it wasn't for our teacher we would have probably never got assistance at all. turned out the safe had no battery and when i asked if we could replace we were given a piece of paper that explaned hoe to use the safe properly due to the ingnorance of the staff. None of them could speak recognisable english.

We then decided to have a look around the room, the room was freezing so we decided to put on the air conditioning. A smell of burning pertruded from the vents so obviously it wasnt working.

At close examination the scirting boards were all eatin' by termites. Next door to us there were lice all over the sheets and they had to be moved to a third floor room with all the same problems, less lice of course.

Every morning we were woken at six A.M by the clicking of high heels of the staff moving up and down the corridors getting the breakfast ready. It was a collection of cheaply proccesed ham and plastic tasting cheese. The juice just wasnt juice and the coffee was cheap and dull.

Overall i wouldnt recomend this hotel to anybody looking to have a gud time in rome. Even for a school trip. It is just awfull.

The only thing about this haotel i can say is gud is how it looks from the outside. But indide im sure it is in violation of some serious health and safety laws.

I hope you can use this review to help you make the right choice of hotel in rome.

Thank You For Reading.

We have just spent 3 nights at the Lazio. This hotel is awful unless you are a student in a group and you want to run up and down the corridors screaming and shouting all night. The breakfast is terrible - luke warm coffee, stale rolls, cheap cheese and aneamic 'cornflakes'. The room was dirty and the towels were about a hundred years old!! The staff are rude at best and downright ignorant most of the time. The fire points are hanging off the walls and there is apparently some sort of abandoned upgrade programme. We had to ASK for basic needs such as TOILET PAPER twice, and most of the light bulbs in the room had blown!! No tea facilities in room - no radio - no english channel on TV. The walls are paper thin and you can hear everything from adjacent rooms - and I mean EVERYTHING!!! Only good point - it was near the Termini Station and walking distance to all the main tourist things.

The only good thing about our stay at the Lazio was location. We were central to the train station, the subway and many of the tourist attractions. But that's it. Our first floor room had no window and no air conditioning to speak of. No working tv, no radio nor phone. We were awaken all three nights by late night guests coming home and slamming hotel room doors. We found it very difficult to converse with the hotel staff to address some of these issues. No one seemed to speak what we'd consider fluent English. For what we paid per night for this hotel, we were VERY disappointed.

FULL of school kids yelling from the windows into the open courtyard area (which provides a fantastic echo if you yell loud enough), and a constant rumble of the airconditioning unit on the roof (something like a plane taking off 24 hours a day). If you dont value peace and quite on your holiday its a great place to stay...good views from the windows of the near by apartments and very central so you can walk everywhere.

Mainly Germans frequent this cozy hotel in a converted town house near station Termini. Rooms are air-conditioned, moist and small, but the real charm of the hotel is found in its elevator, breakfast room and view of the backyard and the sourrounding, adorably old-fashioned town-houses. Faux-marble floors invite you to make yourself at home. A generous breakfast is included in the service, as well as the nice staff, who is very helpful and speaks perfectly English as well as a variety of other languages, including French and Spanish. Alex (concierge) and Mike (plumber, cleaner) were especially accommodating!

I'm looking forward to spending my vacation there again and I recommend this hotel to everyone!
