10/10 Exceptional

Before we stayed we had a message from Diego asking about airport to hotel transfer which was perfect as we hadn't looked yet how to get there, so that solved the start of our trip! When we got there, there is just a lift that fits 2 people and 2 big luggages, there was 5 of us, so we had a few trips up. The staff at reception when we checked in during the day was amazing, even gave us a map and where to go and walk in Rome, so friendly and helpful. Our friends room had a leak everytime they showered which they did note down and saw to, it was better the next day. Great location close to the train station and lots of places to eat around the area.

2/10 Poor

STAY AWAY. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It is located near the train station, which is very sketchy as well as there is graffiti on the outside of the hotel. You have to walk up several steps just to get onto the elevator, which holds a maximum of about two people with luggage. You exit the elevator on the third floor, where the lobby is, and the overhead light is flickering. The lobby area in the daytime is OK and clean looking with bright white walls. But as soon as we got into our room, it was drab and dingy. The bunk bed that my kids slept on, did not look like it would support any weight and the frame looks bent. The air conditioner touchpad was dirty. The bed spread and curtains do not look like they have been replaced in 40 years. Unfortunately, we checked in at midnight and did not have many options, but my wife, three kids, and myself did not even want to sleep on the uncomfortable beds because we wondered about the hygiene of the sheets. I don’t think the bed spreads have been washed. We checked out of the room the next morning (2 days early) and the hotel would not give us a refund for the last two days we were not staying. I have since looked at the hotels website more thoroughly, and they offer rooms by the hour which explains a lot.

Very convenient to Termini train station. Used taxi stand at train station for start of all excursions. Bring your own face clothes - typical of Italy. ATM close by. Held our luggage due to early arrival. Check in is on 3rd floor. Little grocery store by Termini.

Nice little place if you need to stay near Roma Termini train station…otherwise, it is rather unremarkable. Clean and functional.

Feels like a hostel. Staff were absolutely wonderful! Which was the only reason our stay was doable. Building was under construction the family room was spacious but very low quality facility in general. Bunk beds, not really proper bedding etc. Def hostel vibe. Was clean. Area is convenient, steps away from Roma termini.

This hotel is in a great location, just a two minute walk from Termini station and several convenient bus lines. There are several close restaurants as well. The staff was so friendly and helpful! The rooms are...not at all what the photo shows. The room was very clean and served our needs, but the bed spread had a big hole in it and the mattress was awful. We are of the "we're just sleeping her" type of traveler so the lack of ambiance didn't bother us, but the bed definitely was a problem.

Hotel is close to Roma termini and a subway station & is very convenient. However, the lift to access the hotel is very old and requires manual opening of the door. It is also too small that can barely accomodate 3 people without luggage. For the 4 bed room I stayed in, there was one double deck bed one double bed instead of 2 single beds one double bed as shown in the booking page and is a bit misleading. The room is clean and adequately decorated. It is good for short-term staying if you're looking for a conveniently located hotel.

Fantastic Service Given.

I am a frequent traveler and I have never received the care and support from all the staff during our stay. nothing was too much trouble and they when out of their way to accommodate us. I will return. The Mangers Stephen and Marco outstanding service and delightful hosts, the cleaning staff and the technician - fantastic. Well done team. Yes it was a little older than other hotels but had old fashion great service. a great part of town , hnady to everything.

The property is no way close to the images.Rooms are super small and you would feel suffocated. Beds were not clean and elevator can only fit 3 people at a time. We ended up booking another hotel and checked out 2 days ahead. I would not recommend it to anyone unless you are an adventurous.Its very close to termini which is the only positive.

Photos on Expedia were misleading. The property is worn down. It should be listed as a motel, rather than a hotel. The staff is actually very friendly. Fees were non-refundable and very overpriced. We had to leave to another hotel after one overnight stay, while still paying for the 3 following nights. Bottom line, I don’t recommend, and unhappy with the refund policy.

Stay away from this dump

Rome was full The only hotel available. Had a double room booked for single occupancy. After one day they moved my stuff when I was out. Got back late and they moved me to a single room the smallest I have ever seen. Next to their cafe kitchen lots of noise every morning. No response from hotel as to why. The only response was the hotel was full and nothing to do about it.

Nothing to like aboit the hotel poor basic contion such as outlet, appropriate lighting, the photos do not reflect the inside. Question of basic sanitary and condition. The lobby on 3rd door so to get to it need use of elevator that barely can hold I person and 1suitecase Should be rate 0 zero, take it out from your website

8/10 Very good

The hotel is conveniently located very close to Termini station which was really nice as we had an early flight and had to catch the train to the airport from here. The room was decent in size and most of the staff was very nice. However, one of the desk guys was really rude. The beds were what youd expect for a 3 star hotel, but my biggest issue was the temperature control for the shower. It was the most erratic I've ever experienced. One minute it was just right, then it was literally burning me for 10-15 seconds, then it would switch to freezing for 30 seconds. There are very simple solutions to this problem, they just need to invest a bit into their system. Other than that, that hotel was good for the price, and the restaurant directly accross the street is fantastic!

Eu e minha esposa ficamos hospedados neste hotel, o recepcionista Dany, foi muito prestativo e atencioso ao nos ajudar a realocar de quarto, para melhor experiência durante os dias em Roma. O hotel atende bem para quem quer ficar perto da estação de trem (Termini).
