Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The location was convenient, close to the main train station and within walking distance of major tourist spots. Room comfort was a highlight, but the lack of acknowledgment for a special request was a downside.
The hotel is tucked away in a quiet alley but still close to everything. The rooms are very comfortable, but we didn't get a response to our special request email. The dining options were great, but the ice cream was included, which was delightful. Despite being near the metro station, the price was a bit high for what we got.
The hotel is conveniently located in an alleyway, just a block away from the main road, making it easy to access various restaurants and travel hubs. The rooms are equipped with very comfy beds; however, the absence of acknowledging my partner's special request via email was a letdown. The dining experience included grills but was not included in the room price. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The location was convenient, close to Rome's main train station and metro station, making it easy to explore the city and travel to other parts of Italy. The rooms were cozy and had very comfy beds, ensuring a good night's sleep. However, the service could be more attentive as they missed acknowledging the special request we made via email. The dining experience was pleasant with included scones for breakfast, although there could have been more variety. The facilities were satisfactory, offering everything needed for a comfortable stay.
This hotel offers a cozy and welcoming stay in the heart of Rome. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff is attentive and polite. However, there was a slight drawback with the email communication for special requests. The location is convenient, nestled in a charming alleyway close to major attractions in Rome center, with easy access to restaurants and the train station.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quite comfortable with very comfy beds, but the service fell short as they failed to acknowledge the email my partner sent for a special request. The location was convenient being close to all the major attractions, although tucked away in an alleyway off the main road. The dining offered creative salads but could be better in terms of variety. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.
