I went on a European tour with my mother (a teacher) and some of her high school students. This hotel was the one that made me the most nervous, purely because of the amount of bad reviews. However, it is not NEARLY as bad as everyone is making it out to be. It seems to be just an average European hotel...I say this because the hotels in the United States have some remarkable differences. However, everything was clean and worked properly. The biggest complaint I had was the shower...it was tiny and the shower head was so high that no matter where you moved, the water was splashing right in your face. That's a small deal as far as I'm concerned. The airplanes are pretty loud at first, but they either stopped at a certain hour or I just got used to the noise because airplane noise didn't wake me up once (and I don't sleep well in unfamiliar places). Also, the power was knocked out at one point, but it didn't take 5 minutes for the manager to fix the problem. So if you need a hotel that won't break your budget, try this one. The negative reviews seem greatly exaggerated.

We stayed for 1 night only at this hotel. Firstly, it was quite hard to find and we had to stop several times to ask for directions. However, I would not recommend the hotel facilities. We were on the 6th floor and our room was not very nice. The shower cubicle had black mould round it and one wall of the bedroom had bubbling damp coming through, I presume from the shower on the other side. Not nice to look at.
The food was not very good. This surprised me, as Italians usually have a passion for good fresh food, but this really was a very mediocre dinner, which was extra and breakfast. I was so relieved that we were only there for one night or I would have complained.
On the plus side, there is free parking behind secure gates and the reception staff are efficient, if not friendly!

We stayed at the Dany for 5 nights (6 days) while visiting Rome. According to reports in the city, the Friday we were there was the hottest day for a century - never known heat like it, however the hotel was refreshingly cool, and the air con in the room worked fine, taking off the worst of the heat at night.

The hotel is very clean and spacious. The rooms are just how I like them - clean, simple and tasteful. The en-suite bathroom was well lit, had an excellent hairdryer, and the shower was fairly reliable (not too many cold/hot bursts) and powerful. Towels (large bath, hand and feet x 2) were changed every day without fail. The mini-bar (no alcohol, but plenty of canned drinks and snacks) was restocked every day. Every single member of staff was polite, friendly and very helpful especially a lovely lady who did some research for us on the internet for trains to Pompeii and the ticket prices.

The pool was just so, so good, just what was needed after a long hot tiring day in Rome - clean, quiet (except for the planes and trains) - there were never more than 6 adults by the pool in the day-time. About the planes and trains....the hotel is right next to Ciampino airport, and one of the main train lines to Rome Termini (train station) runs along side the hotel. It is noisy no two ways about it, but to be honest it didn't bother me in the slightest and the noise didn't once disturb me at night and I'm an exceptionally light sleeper!

My only grumble, was the breakfast. The hotel calls it a Continental Breakfast, but it's nothing like any I've had in the past. There is 1 lightly iced croissant, 1 roll and 1 packet of a tiny French toast type affair, served with hot drinks, juice (which is actually squash - not even a concentrate), and various jams and butter. All waitress served which is nice, but it's not enough food to set one up for a couple of hours, let alone the day. Where was the fruit, yogurt, cereal I cried! I'd much have preferred the Continental style breakfast as offered by Holiday Inn in the UK. Now THAT's a decent continental breakfast.
That however is my only grumble - The Dany Hotel is excellent value for money and I would have no reservations in booking with them again!

Train station is 10 minutes walk up the road. Train takes 15 mins at the most to get into Rome Termini.
Do be warned. If you arrive in for your holiday at Ciampino airport, it will cost you 20 Euros minimum to get to the hotel which is less than 5 mins away. You can not walk it so don't attempt it! Some try to charge you more, so stick to your guns. We arrived after midnight - plenty of taxi's waiting. Taxi from the hotel to the airport if you ask the staff to book it, is 18 Euros.

My daughter and I stayed at this hotel for one week. I would not recommend it to anyone hoping to enjoy Rome. We payed 200 Euro to get from the Fiumicino airport to the hotel. The taxi driver couldn't find the hotel, and very nearly dropped us off summarily at a grafitti spraypainted tenement without a word. Luckily for us a local woman came out of the apt complex and gave him directions to the hotel. Most (not all) of the hotel staff tried to be helpful, but spoke no English at all. The women at the front desk tried to help us, providing us with a map of Champiano so we could find the train station. The one man working the front desk was rude and useless. Rooms were adequate for an overnight stay - not for a week. The hotel was full of Italian infantrymen armed to the teeth. Don't know what was up with that.
