If you have plenty of luggage, stay away from this hotel. There's no elevator and they said it's located on the 3rd floor which is literally on the 4th floor. You have to carry all your stuff from level floor to 4th floor. Stairs are very narrow. Place is super old. But it has a great location.

Stairs, Stairs, Stairs.
Elevator out of order,our room was on the 4th floor no other options.

No wifi......out of order.

Bed was horrible. 2 beds put together, which is normal in Europe but 1/2 was regular the other 1/2 was so soft, Like it had been used to 100years.

Staff were friendly and allowed us to have a late check.

Great location and friendly staff

Lady that greates us on arrival was lovely. Our room was ready early and very clean. Even though ghere was sliding doors there were rules in place to get a good nights sleep and ear plugs provided.
Guest house is in a great lacation just a few minutes walk from the Collaseum.
Only down side really was that when we asked for a room clean after 3 days of being there it seemed that only the bed was made as there was still hairs all over the floor, makeup on the towels that had been refolded and clean bed sheets left on the fridge. Dont know if this os in all rooms but the boiler was infront of our toilet so if you're over 5 foot 5 you will hit your head if you forgwt when you get up.
Some helpful information; it is a buzzer entrance when you first arrive and have to go up to level 3, but you require a key for the tiny lift

This was such a welcome place to come to when we arrived in Rome. It was a short walk to the Colosseum and other cultural sites.

Important to know is that if anyone has mobility issues, it's on the third floor and there is not elevator. This was ok for us, but could be an issue for others. Lovely staff and friendly calm environment made for a restful time when we needed it.

Room was sufficient, bathroom was clean, however our blanket had a small stain. The walls are very thin. You can hear the neighbors walking in and out of their rooms. Keep in mind you have to take 3 flights of stairs to get to the room. Ok place to stay if you're out most of the day and just there to sleep.

The property itself was great however, the building was having exterior construction of the wall and every morning at 7am they would start hammering the exterior wall against our bed waking us all up in the room. I wish they either knew this was going to be happening so we could be warned or have it posted prior to booking the property.

Property was clean and service was great though. Nothing against the actual accommodations.

Lots of restaurants easy to get to the Colosseum. Staff was one of a kind. They were very friendly assisted in everything that we need the day that we checked out we had an incident where we left our luggage in the street as we travel traveled through Italy the staff at the hotel, held it for us for four days until we were able to pick it up 4 days later I am so grateful.

Communication through text is great, in person they're rude. Very uncomfortable to climb stairs with luggage being that they have an unworking elevator. They screamed at us from the 3rd floor saying not to use it.The rooms are very close to the front desk and the staff make a lot of noise, talking, laughing, and moving stuff. The only good thing about these rooms is that they are a walking distance from the coliseum and restaurants.

We had a lovely stay at Daplace - HQH - Colosseo. It is in a great location in Monti with train/bus stops and many shops/restaurants in walking distance. Our check-in was smooth and they offered us free bottled water / fresh towels / new bedding each day (if desired). During our check-in they also shared a detailed restaurant guide and suggestions for things to do. The A/C was also greatly appreciated during the August heat.

Note: The apartment is located on the second floor of the building (with no access to the elevator) so be mindful of booking if you have many bags or have accessibility issues. The staircase is quite narrow.

It’s a bedroom and a bathroom, on the third floor. Check in is a bit hard. I would not stay here again but only because I would prefer a bit more luxury. This place is perfect if you just need a place to sleep and don’t care about luxury. It’s a bit of a walk to the train with hills.

The property was centrally located and if you are mobile, its fantastic.

It is up 3 flights of stairs and manoeuvring in a tiny staircase so it's hard to get your suitcase up and down.

The room was clean and serviced daily, however there is a sewage smell that enters the room from the bathroom.

The window opens up to the main street which is cool as you can see the Colosseum at the end, however the noise of a busy street, along with the lights and the echo of the central building hallway doesn't help with a peaceful nights sleep.

Overall, rated down due to smell and noise.

Ok space. Not same condition as pictures

Place has seen better days. Rooms in pictures are from right after it seems to have been renovated. Now, the walls are scuffed, needs paint, different curtains, cheap plastic bath curtain (vs one in pics), floor is all scuffed up, base boards needing attention. Overall, the place was safe and in a convenient location, but needs a bit of attention. The last day we were there, we began to see ants in the 3rd floor.

Nothing like what the pictures show. It’s technically a bed and breakfast without the breakfast. Location is nice because it’s right next to the colosseum but don’t even think about going up to the roof. Pretty sure the owner of the building wants to shut down the “bed and breakfast” cause when I went to the roof with the permission of the staff the owner came out recording me saying I’m not supposed to be up there and that the video is getting sent to the lawyers. It’s on the third floor and if you’re carrying luggage you will have to walk up 6 sets of stairs though with it which it does not tell you online either. It does have AC though to cool you off which might literally be the only positive. The staff I only saw twice and that was once during a morning and when I turned in my keys. It’s going to be very difficult if you need something from them after about 1 PM. She was very nice but not available, which I would imagine being a problem for some people. A lot of places from what I noticed are like this. I would recommend looking extensively at reviews of everything in Rome cause I know they aren’t the only ones like this.

Excellent location. Walking distance to major attractions. The property does not have an elivator so it was some what daunting to have to climb the stairs to the 3rd floor several times a day.

This place is not a hotel . So don’t be tricked like us and get stranded on the street.
We book this hotel thinking we got lucky. Found a hotel In the heart of rome for such decent pricing and great looking rooms. When we got to rome. It took us a while to find the hotel, on top of that it wasn’t even a hotel. It’s an apartment! We couldn’t contact the number they’re giving no one replied to us. There is no concierge and no elevator. It’s dirty and the lights are broken. We only
Got in bc the girl that lives in the building let us in and help us contact the host. Like I said no one pick up. Save yourself some. Trouble and book where else. Last minute booking in rome is insane. We ended up booking another place and paid nearly 2k for a very very humble hotel. Anyways this place is a disappointment and I believe it’s a scam.

More of a Hostel than a Hotel...

I don't often leave reviews, but felt compelled after our stay at HQH. Our stay got off to a rough start, as we really struggled to find the hotel while dragging our bags around a busy street. Thankfully the lady working the front desk (who was very nice) came out to help us. There is no way we would have found it, as the signage is nothing more than a small nameplate on a side door. After navigating several flights of a narrow, winding staircase (be aware if you have any mobility issues) we were ready to check in. Again, the receptionist was very kind, and really the only redeeming quality. Arriving in our room, we were shocked by the difference from the pictures we saw when booking our stay. The bathroom was TERRIBLE, with mold throughout, bugs, hair everywhere. The water was ice cold, so we were not able to shower before our scheduled tours. When we got hot water later that night, I showered with shoes on. The air conditioning did not work, the furniture, pillow cases, and wall paper were ripped. We hoped to get another room, but they were unable to move us until later in our stay. By that point, however, we were so sick of the accommodations that we checked out early. We hoped to get a refund, but they would not provide it, so we went to another hotel anyways. It wasn't worth spending our last day in Rome in a severely underwhelming hotel. My wife and I both travel for work, so we see a lot of hotels, and this room was definitely the worst.

Positive trip, but room for improvement

There were a number of minor things that detracted from my stay

- to get into reception there was only a half door to squeeze through, not too easy with a rucksack and suitcase.
- there was a small bathroom bin but no main bin in the room
- the door to the room had small gaps to the bottom and side which allowed a lot of sound to come through from reception and the corridor
- there was a very small table to eat from, but I would have liked a bigger table here
- the shower head was loose and so you had to hold the shower head rather than just leaving it above you

And now the positives

- Fabiola was working on reception and she was friendly and super helpful
- The bed was comfy and the room had air conditioning
- the location was excellent, just a few minutes from the coliseum

Good value - clean and great location

You need to be aware of a few points. Firstly the hotel is not manned 24 hours and unless you have notified of your arrival you will need to ring a mobile and request and wait for the access to the building. Secondly the hotel is on the 3rd floor with narrow and steep staircase for access. The lift is not accessible and only for tenants.
Obviously there is no restaurant but many cafes, bars and restaurants just steps away from the apartment. Having said that the rooms are spacious, clean and certainly value for money. Colosseum is very close as is Termini Station and subway is just a 100m from the hotel - very centrally located.

Convent location, near the Colosseum, Forum, subwy

This is a small B&B, and breakfast is 1 coffee/tea plus 1 pastry at a nearby restaurant. It was enjoyable, and a great location for seeing historical sites.
Definitely not handicap accessible - not a problem for us, but something some people should be aware of. The B&B is 3 flights up from the entrance. Narrow staircase. There is a lift about 1 flight up from the entrance, but more steps once at the right level.

I would stay there again, happily, but it isn't a good choice for some people.

Well equipped with ikea kit. Staff very friendly/ helpful. Local area great for eating out, fab ice cream parlour a few doors down and very well placed for walking to all the big sites. Plus a view of the coliseum! Only negative for us was the quality of the pillows- could ha done with another one! But fab value for money
