“Nice one”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 10, 2012

The hotel is situated in building with other B&B's but it's close to Termini station and subway (10mins walk). So that;'s the first plus. Staff speaks English,well at least half of them..Reception is open 24hrs, which I take as a big plus! Room was cosy & clean but a bit small. Modern and new. Bathroom was in excellent condition even with hairdryer! Breakfast was poor, but that's typical in Italian hostels and Bb's so I wasn't surprised at all. Although they were serving gorgeous cappuccino with heart . Loved it! We stayed 3 nights only and was there only for nights. Supermarket is on the way to termini station.

“You Get What You Pay For!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed March 30, 2012

We stayed at Brando & Gio for the last three nights of our 50 day trip. We stayed in lots of hotels, most were better than this one. The staff was indifferent, I don't know if it was because they were rude, or just didn't understand English. Answers to our questions were short and curt. We had contact with them only during check in and check out.

The room was small, but clean. The bathroom was adequate. We were in a non-smoking room, but the adjoining room apparently was smoking. The beds were small and very uncomfortable. Free internet.

Positives:
Ten minute walk to the main train terminal
Very low price
Elevator
Free Internet
Very Clean
Good neighborhood - lots of restaurants nearby

Negatives:
Small room
Small uncomfortable beds

We decided that we would be out of the room most of the time, so we would sacrifice comfort for location and price. Luckily the weather was good, if it was raining, it would be tough to spend a lot of time in the room. If you are looking just for a place to sleep, this will fit the bill.

“Terrible service”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed January 27, 2012

My partner I I booked this hotel 9 months in advance for our stay of 1 night. Three months after the booking was made, we received an email advising our booking was cancelled and no explanation provided. We immediately sent an email asking why, and a response was received some days later advising a mistake was made with our name and the booking was cancelled by accident. We were then advised if we wished to rebook, the room would now be double the cost, after the hotel made the mistake and cancelled our booking! Needless to say, we did not re-book the room.
