Great Hotel! The location is very good, close to Termini Station. There are many good restaurants all around the hotel, we ate at one the desk recommended and it was great. All desk staff were great, giving us lots of info and setting up transportation to the airport for us when leaving. Would definitely stay there again

Great location with easy access near the Termini train and metro stations. A short walk to Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore where Pope Francis was laid to rest. We found several good restaurants in the area. The hotel offers a substantial breakfast with a wide variety of options. Would definitely stay here again.

We started in Rome twice during this trip. First time for 5 days and the second just a night. I’m glad that we didn’t pick this hotel for a longer stay because there’s nothing special Roman. It’s a typical American hotel. The hotel lacks design and the staff is not very helpful though friendly.

The hotel and staff were so wonderful. We chose this location because it is next to the train. But with that you are in the train are that is really dirty. I would still choose this location. Really glad that the hotel was so great.

I had a great stay here. The staff was friendly and helpful. My room was clean and had everything I needed. I was in a single room so it was a small room and bathroom but that was all I needed for just me. The location was perfect. It was far enough away from the city center to not be terribly expensive, but I could still walk to the Colosseum area. The location close to Termini station made it easy to walk a few blocks and catch a bus around town or a train to areas outside the city.

This hotel was fine, overall. The staff was hit or miss. Some had an attitude like they were French people. Questions or requests were often met with a condescending response. Italian people are usually not so condescending.
