“NICE STOP”

Nice hotel close to the airport. Clean with ok beds. A number of very nice restaurants within walking distance. Spent 2 night there before going to Athens. The staff were very nice and helpful. They have a continental breakfast included.

“Fair price and good stay week in this hotel”

Everything was good and the staff was so nice and clean room, the price was fair but the transportation and the shuttle were bad, I waited for the shuttle for one hour and finally, I had to deal with bad taxi drivers and they took 25 Euro for less than 5 minutes!

There is public transportation (cotral buses Ostia line) from in front T1 to the hotel staff will not inform you about it: From the airport to near the hotel (about 7 minutes /750 m/) find the attachment.

“Basic Accommodations”

We stayed here with a group of friends who made all the reservations. This is not your normal hotel - it is more like an extended-stay kind of place where all the rooms have kitchens (although there's an added charge if you use them) and the front desk is only open from 8:00am - 6:00pm.

It is very close to the airport and a plane flies over your head just about every 10 min. It's not the Ritz, but it was clean enough, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the price was certainly affordable. There is no restaurant on site, but there are a few places to eat nearby. Our biggest let down was that there were no screens on the windows, and there were mosquitos everywhere! We wound up shutting the windows and turning on the A/C even though the weather was cool. Not sure we'd stay here again if it was just us.

We stayed here as a jumping off point for an early morning international flight out of Italy. We arrived after a long overland trip by train and bus, and were in need of some refreshment, a shower and sleep. The hotel was quite comfortable although the room showed some signs of mould and the grout in the shower was dirty. A lift was available to access upper floors. Our main complaint regards refreshment. There was no catering available at the hotel. We were directed to a pleasant restaurant nearby. We like to make a cup of tea or coffee in our room. There was no electric kettle, nor was there any cups or cutlery. I approached reception to ask for some cups, but this was refused but I was offered some disposable plastic cups. There was no milk, tea or coffee provided in the room and milk was unavailable at reception ( but we had some teabags and chocolate sachets in our luggage), and when we attempted to use the cooktop in the kitchenette all of the power shut down in the bedsit. I reported to reception and was advised that this was because I had not paid the surcharge for cooker use. I note here that the power had to be manually restored, and because reception closed at midnight a traveller might easily have no light or heating/cooling if the cooker was used after a late arrival.

We used the hotel as an airport stopover as had an early flight out. Getting there was easy on the Roma/airport shuttle train. We had contacted the hotel and got detailed instructions about the airport/hotel shuttle bus with times, the cost being 6euros per person each way. Without that information it could have been difficult. The hotel was adequate with a good breakfast. A restaurant was recommended within walking distance which was very good however about 20 euros each with wine and one course.
