Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had a concert to go to at downtown, Rome, but all decent hotels are sold-out in downtown area. So, we stayed at Kings Inn, which had a good review and rating compared to other comps for $80.
However, our experience made us wonder if this hotel has 8.6-10-point star, all other comp hotels rated a lot lower must be really bad in many ways.
The entrance was a bit confusing. There are two doors to get to the front desk. A small secuirty-office like area with window on your right, then you need to open the other door in front of you to get to the front desk area.
I don't remember booking a smoking room but I guess I did (I didn't know there are hotels still offering smoking rooms). I couldn't change our preference at the front desk, so we stayed in the smoking room, which was awful.
TV was working and had a good selection.
The AC was BROKEN or set at 80s degree by default. It was turned on when the room temprature reached almost unbearable heat. There was no way to control the temperature.
The fridge was working but VERY noisy. With the high temp and noisy fridge, we couldn't sleep much.
There was cigarette ash on the bathroom floor. The towels were clean (I guess) but all yellowish or grayish.
There is no uber or lyft. It was $15 at first, then went up $60 for 8-min drive, but still no ride. it is inconvenient place if you are planning to go to downtown.
