I have to disagree with the other reviewer. Myself and my boyfiend stayed here for 2 nights in October. I daresay it was very basic but I hadn't expected much more for the very reasonable price we paid to stay here. I wouldn't recommend staying here for more than 2 or 3 nights but since we spent very little time in the room it was perfect for us. It was clean- fresh towels everyday and the breakfast was actually pretty good! Croisssants, bread, cereal, orange juice, coffee, hot chocolate etc.
We actually thought the bathroom was an ok size and didnt notice much noise from outside or any smells?! The hotel was about 3mins walk from the Termini where the Ryanair bus dropped us off- so v. handy in that sense too. Also lots of reasonable restaurants nearby offering discounts when you are staying here.

All in all good value for money and all we needed in this fantastic city.

Ugh...do not stay here!

We stayed here the night before we flew out, and I couldnt wait to leave it. Someone else booked this place online and we thought it would be decent for one night.

It's one of those teeny little hotels that are just part of a bigger building on the east side of Termini. This is not the best area, and its full of crappy little tourist class hotels like this one.

The rooms are spartan, to say the least. They do have AC, but it is centrally controlled, and never set right. The windows are NOT double-glazed, and the street noise is pretty bad. The bathroom was miniscule and really stinky...and the air vent in it pulled a extra gross old smokey smell from somewhere else in the building.

Didn't even bother trying the breakfast, since it was your basic crappy pre-packaged type "continental" offering. Anyways, I am sure that if you are looking for a cheap place to stay in Rome, you can do better than this place. Check the guidebooks, or look for a well reviewed place on Trip Advisor. I booked the Golden Tulip Mecenate Palace for our first few nights in Rome, and compared to the Continentale it was indeed a palace.
