★★★★★ 5/5 — The Best Hotel I’ve Ever Stayed In! The Best Western Plus Hotel Universo in Rome exceeded all my expectations. It is, without a doubt, the most beautiful and comfortable hotel I’ve ever stayed in. From the very first moment, the staff was simply wonderful—kind, attentive, and always willing to help. The cleanliness deserves a 100/100. Everything was spotless, from the room to the common areas. I truly felt at home, but with all the luxury of a top hotel. The location is also excellent, perfect for exploring Rome. If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Highly recommended and I can’t wait to return!

Excellent service on last minute booking as we had to vacate our previously book accommodations as they were unacceptable. We got to the hotel at 9:30 AM, received quality service from the front desk staff, and were able to get into our room less than an hour later. Comfortable, clean and well kept. Would stay again.

The hotel was very accommodating and included the amenities that made our stay at the light. The hotel is close to the train station and we were able to store our lockers approximately two blocks away to spend more time visiting the area. The breakfast was also a typical American breakfast, which was very cool thank you.

Rooms are really tiny, showers are terrible. The shower head floods the whole bathroom and the drain doesn’t drain water fast enough. Star Hotel next door was way better and bigger for cheaper.
