A little underwhelming

The images posted make the place out to be much more luxurious than it was. While extremely close to the train station, which was a huge bonus for us, we were a bit underwhelmed with the property. And we were extremely disappointed with the chicken Caesar salad: the chicken was a breaded cutlet of pressed “chicken”. Certainly not something we have ever had at any restaurant…especially for the price.

Perfect Stay – Highly Recommended I spent hours searching for the right hotel, and this one was absolutely perfect. The staff were amazing, everything was spotless, and the breakfast came with great views. The bed was super comfortable, the shower was lovely, and it’s just minutes from the main train station — ideal for getting around. There’s also a fantastic pizza restaurant just around the corner and even a halal burger place nearby if you’re craving that. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Clean hotel and room. Friendly staff. Elevator was inconvenient as there is only one and extremely small (claustrophobic small). Odd smell of room and bathroom. Nothing special - price high for what it was. Average - not bad - served a purpose for our one night stay. Wouldn’t return.

Overall property was really convenient if you wish to stay in the centre of Rome. Place didn't really seem all that safe in the dark . No help with Parking whatsoever. Were told by the hotel reception to be careful after 9pm which made for an uneasy holiday. Breakfast options very limited. Nothing great.
