Amazing Stay in the Heart of Rome! The hotel was fantastic—great location, close to everything we wanted to see and do. The service was outstanding, and the staff made us feel very welcome. Our room had everything we needed, including robes and slippers, which was a nice touch. We’ll definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Rome and will be recommending it to all our friends!
