This place is well equipped with everything you need and close to city center for all major attractions. Clean and honestly pretty “cute”. (I stayed in the single room and am a female)

Do not stay at this property. Not a hotel but rooms in the basement. Very deceiving from the outside and photos provided. When we arrived we immediately called a Travelocity agent who directed us to leave and notify the owner and that we would receive a full refund. Still sorting this through with Travelocity said the owner said me and my 3 friends checked in, stayed for a while and had a shower. This definitely was not the case. Me, 64, and my wife, 63, sat in the bed and made the calls to Travelocity. To date no refund from the owner for a one night stay that was definitely overpriced and not in the condition as expected from the photos. STAY AWAY!!!! Do not book with this hotel!

Do NOT stay at this “hotel”. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. It says it is a “luxury inn”, this is the furthest thing from luxury. The pictures are deceiving, they do not represent what the room is like at all. The room was small, dirty and the walls are paper thin. No one on site to speak with. I would compare this room to a low budget hostel. If you want comfort, cleanliness and a nice place to stay DO NOT stay here.

The pictures and description of this hotel on Expedia are completely deceiving. It is not a luxury property ar all! The room are very small, air conditioning doesn’t work and we mentioned it to the off site staff their response was “you don’t know how to work the remote”. It’s in a very hard to find location, no staff on site, in the basement so VERY noisy I heard everyone’s conversations in the other rooms are walls are so thin. I definitely would not recommend this “luxury” hotel.

Ok room! A bit a expensive for what it was, close to the road and we had a homeless guy shout from our window. There was mold, but i don't know if it was to be expected in these old buildings? Definitely bring earplugs, or else it is very hard to sleep. Room is a bit small, but there's all you need in there. You can also ask for more soap, since they only give small packets. Definitely need to download whatsapp and call/text the owners first so you know how to enter (we searched a little, it was our fault). Overall was a good stay.

This is a small hotel between the Vatican and Piazza Navona. It is not staffed all day so it was necessay to inform the hotel when we would be arriving. A great advantage for people travelling overnight from North America is the early check-in that allows for a much needed nap. Nothing fancy but it was clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. A reasonable stop for a short stay before we moved into our VRBO apartment.

This property is located in an excellent area convenient for walking to St. Peter’s basilica Vatican City and all the sites in Rome that you want to see. The bathroom is in need of an update. Showerhead needs replacing and counter space is non existent. 4 keys are needed to get into the property after hours with one door a bit of a struggle to open and shut behind you. All on an extra large key chain to carry around. Unfortunately, trying to contact the owners on. WhatsApp was difficult for me as I wanted to book transportation to the airport and was not able to do that through messaging or through the lady that checked us in. I had to call an online service which was fine in the end.

Clean and newly renovated, we enjoyed our stay. There are only 5 rooms on the one floor and each room is unique. Ours was newly renovated and very clean, although very small. Check in was easy, someone greeted us and connected us to the owner or manager who spoke English and guided us through the process. We checked in during the morning which made it easier than nighttime check in I imagine. The shower was good altho no shelf to put shampoo & soap etc. The bed was comfortable (we had a queen size) but there was little room for our bags in the room. My biggest complaint was the noise as the hotel is right next to a busy street. I wore earplugs which solved the problem. The air conditioner was rather noisy so we opened the window, but with scaffolding on the outside of the building I was concerned for safety reasons. Luckily it’s a safe neighborhood so all was good. Convenient location, busy area, close to many sights. We would stay here again and highly recommend, also a good value.

Upon entering I noticed this area was very clean and the exterior was really nice and quiet, with security on staff for a nearby university. The staff was very accommodating, allowing me early check-in. The room was possibly a smoking room due to the lingering smell (room #3). The room itself had nice windows, but the location is next to a busy road with constant ambulances driving by and heavy traffic throughout the day. With the windows shut it was reduced. The room was updated and the shower was large. GREAT LOCATION.

There are five units in a building with a security guard so it seems very safe. They give you codes to access your room. It is just across the street from the river and a short distance walking to the Vatican, Castel San Angelo, And much of the historic section of Rome. Most of the fixtures seem fairly newly remodeled. We found a cab stand for five blocks away to take us to the airport. The room is not super large, but we were only there for one night so it was convenient for our needs.

Overall, the experience was as-expected. Check-in was made easy by communication ahead of time. The size and condition of the room was good, and the bed was very comfortable. The street noise was very loud, but got better after I discovered how to close the shutters. Far from Metro, but close to bus, and central location if willing to walk ~20 minutes to Colosseum or Vatican.

When I opened the door to the room I was immediately met by a foul odor that was confirmed to be the smell of a dead rodent by a man working in the shower of the next room. The day of checkin was extremely hot, over 90 degrees and the window was open and the air conditioner off. Having just walked from the train station I attempted to take a shower and found NO hot water even after letting the water run for 5 - 10 minutes. This is the roach motel.

Clean and comfy bed. The shower was really not good, bad smells came up frequently through the drains and there was mould on one of the bathroom walls. The windows in our room also opened directly to a bus stop on a busy road, which meant there was no privacy and constant noise. We got in fine but never once met anyone from the property in person. I expected more for the price.

Comfortable but minor niggles

After a slightly difficult start due to translation issues, our stay was very comfortable with excellent beds that were needed after all the walking we fidxaround the city each day.
Only two very minor points to mention that the history may be able to improve. 1. After telling the cleaners we did not need our room cleaning on our first day, they then did not clean our room for the remainder of our stay. 2. There was no power socket anywhere near the kettle so we had to clear one of the bedside tables each morning in order to had a suitable location for it to make tea. There were also no teaspoons to make tea/coffee.

This hotel is in the perfect location for us. It was right in the middle of most of the “touristy” activities we wanted to do. About 15-20 minutes walk from all main points: Vatican, Trevi fountain, the Piazzas, shopping, etc. you’re less than a 10 minute walk from good food. People say to avoid the food near the tourist spots, but honestly we found it to usually be better than what we found further away. Our room in the hotel was very comfortable with AC, good water pressure, and a comfortable bed. It felt very safe. There were 3-4 steps to access the rooms-not a problem for us, just good to know. The only two downsides were the street outside the hotel was too noisy to sleep with the window open, but with it shut you didn’t hear much, and the water was difficult to get to the right temperature in the shower. Those two things were so small though, especially with everything else being wonderful! We would stay here again if coming back to Rome.

First-time visiting Italy

This hotel excels in cleanliness and security, with comfortable beds and thorough safety measures including surveillance cameras and several secure doors to get in to the hotel. Despite some street noise, typical for Rome, and a slightly delayed check-in process that required temporary luggage storage, the overall experience was very positive. Keep in mind that early check-in may not be available. We arrived in Rome at 8 a.m. so I would suggest getting there a bit later around 10 or so. I would happily stay here again.

Good location, bad night’s sleep

Check in communication was excellent, although completely remote and via text. Good location. However the room had no curtains which made for a night of absolutely no sleep as it is located adjacent a very busy road being lit up all night and the bed was directly facing the window. Not even a curtain pole where we could have draped a towel

My wife and I had the best experience staying at this wonderful unique apartment. Although there wasnt any staff on arrival we got into our room no problem. The owner can be contacted via Whatsapp and always responded quickly when we asked anything. We found out first room was a bit noisy with constant traffic noise. But we then got
another room which was perfect. It was clean and so central to most of the attractions. The Vatican and Castle St. Angelo were a five minute walk away. Perfect, and most of the sights were all in walking distance. Such an amazing place to stay. Would definitely stay there again. Wonderful.

The room was falling apart (towel rack fell off the wall and shower door handle was broken). There was no staff to check me out at 8:30am. Calling this hotel is a misnomer. The desk is not manned except for a few hours during the day. It would be more consistent with service of borrowing someone’s apartment for the weekend. They do provide some clean linens and make up the room each day. WiFi was decent and plenty of outlets in the room.
