I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and very comfortable, and the staff was incredibly helpful and nice. The location is amazing, nestled in a quiet neighborhood but still within walking distance to all the major attractions. The only downside was the breakfast offering which could be improved, but overall, it was a fantastic experience.

The hotel had very nice rooms, although they smelled of smoke and the noise from the heaters was a bit bothersome. The staff was extremely helpful checking our tours and answering our questions, making it a good choice for breakfast. The location was in the midst of the center of Rome, surrounded by antiquities and ruins, and within walking distance to tons of restaurants, but the noise on New Year's Eve was unexpected.

The rooms were very nice, with a sofa bed and 2 regular single beds pushed together to make it more like a queen size bed, but they smelled of smoke and the noise of the heaters was noticeable.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room I stayed in was on the top floor with a balcony, and it was well-appointed. The bedroom and living/dining area with a kitchenette were spacious and comfortable, although some pictures on the walls would have made it even better.
