“Great deal and location, not a 5 star.”

We stayed in this hotel for 8 nights. While the hotel itself is not top luxury, we didn't mind due to the price and location. Bonus that there is a bus stop right infront of the hotel, and walking distance from everything! The staff was of average attitude, not what you expect as cheerfulness and deisre to fufil all your requests but they where helpful. Breakfast was a so so array of pastries, cereals, meats and cheeses. Our tv and heater worked and we had a beautiful balcony in our room. This hotel is not a 5 star luxury resort, but as I said I didn't mind since we spend little to no time in the hotel and most of our time exploring the city. The location is the reason why I will return, only a 5 minute walt to the Vatican and many other Roman points of interest!

First impression was note great, but got better - I arrived late on Saturday night and they had limited rooms left. So, they changed me (from Room #3 to #11) on Sunday and it was a lot brighter and larger, with a much better & cleaner bathroom.I stayed a week, and it was fine for the price - on hindsight I might have searched for other location, but it would have been pricier. It was a 3-star; the hotel staff were helpful and friendly enough, and breakfast was ok. There were marvelous large marble steps to the Hotel, which was on 3rd floor of the building. There was an elevator and it was old, but worked fine. Location was super, as it was easy to walk everywhere. I walked about 10 minutes down the Tiber River towards St. Peter's & Vatican daily - beautiful view. This is Rome...there are neat places, and it had character. It was clean. WiFi was free and worked in the lobby area - staff said it didn't in most rooms - other friends stayed in hotels which charged 11 - 14 euros/day for internet.
