REVIEWS:

"The room was tiny, even by european city standards and i was able to touch both walls when lying on the bed. The furniture consisted of one tiny table and one chair and a wardrobe but there was virtually no room to place our suitcases on the floor. There was a small fridge inside the wardrobe but no sign of the advertised minibar. The "satellite" television consisted solely of Italian channels."

"No staff attending front desk for several hours. I had to "check other guests in" and show them to their room as there were no staff present to show the couple to their room. Electricity, phone lines and hot water were out. "

"The hotel was well located near many of the popular Rome sites. The rooms were tastefully decorated and had new bathrooms and wood floors."

“Charming interior - 4-5 m to the old, wooden ceiling, enormous painting over the bed. Very nice modern bathroom - and very good coffee. Many charming places to eat in the area.”

"The staff who checked us in were very nice but had almost no english so communication was a problem and they were hardly ever around. I did get a glimpse of another room on the day we were leaving and that seemed huge compared to ours so perhaps we were just unlucky "

“The hotel staff didn't speak much english so don't rely on them for local/tourist information. Also breakfast wasn't served on time, not ideal when trying to make a tour!”

“The location is good near many important sites.”

“It was not easy to check in and check out. First noone answered contact telephone, and later credit card mashine did not work. But stuff was wery helpful.”
