A second stay at the Hotel Donna Francesca, this time in a single room. The room was a decent size and clean and comfortable. Breakfast was pre-ordered the night before per the property's process, and delivered on time.

I stayed two nights in single room over Easter period. The room was perfectly clean and comfortable, but I have several criticisms of the venue, stemming from how it's listed on Expedia and how it operates: 1. This is not what I call a hotel - it's a set of serviced rooms off a main corridor (in what was probably a large apartment before conversion) 2. One feature of which means that breakfast is served on a dinette trolley in your room, ordered from a menu the night before. If you order two coffees, you get two coffees, not a double. If you forget something, too bad. If you're not hungry in the morning, too bad, the food has been plated. Definitely not the best or freshest breakfast! 3. There are practically zero staff - no staffed reception during the weekend I was there (entry is via a door code provided ahead of arrival). Communication with the hotel had to be via WhatsApp, although when they weren't responsive, I also had to phone them. During my first night, there was a persistent tapping/dripping sound from the building's internal pipework, although that might have been related to the building, rather than this property This may well be a way to monetise property as a business, but not an experience I would repeat if I can avoid it.

The elevator was really bad and can hardly hold 1 person and 1 suitcase. suffocating experience. The dead bolt in the property did not work. Some guests did not have a clue what to do as there is no easy way to communicate to the hotel staff.

I had a lovely stay here! The property is charming - on the 4th floor of an elegant building with so much character that is perfectly located in Rome. I could walk to the Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps and Metro in no time, but the rooms were quiet and peaceful. The staff was wonderful with accommodating my early arrival and assisting with an airport shuttle drive - very friendly and helpful throughout booking through check-out. The breakfast delivered to my room this morning was such a huge bonus - I got to select what I wanted the day before, and it came at the time I chose - so elegant, fresh, and delicious! I would definitely stay again only for longer next time. Thank you!
The breakfast delivered to my room - exactly what I selected: the veg, croissant, cappuccino and mixed fruit with plain yogurt and jam. Delicious!

Cute spot. Great Breakfast delivered to your door. 20min to walk to anywhere is enjoyable, very secure neighborhood as the Military station is across the street. Hosts are available with whats app and accommodating. Quick Tip: dont take a taxi from the train station. They will scam you $50 euro. And its only a 2 block lovely walk. Even with luggage. Also , let the Hotel know your arrival time so they can assist you with entry if required. Our family of 4 had a lovely stay.
