Cheap place to stay close to everything. The A/C wasn’t on for us which was a bummer but we managed without. It’s not the ritz but it’s a safe place to leave your bags while you explore rome, to wash up at the end of the day, and to lay your head.

Really nice location close to the main Rome terminal. The hotel was clean and well maintained. There were two shared bathrooms that were also very clean. Only suggestion I would make is to have an indicator on the bathrooms if the door is locked and in use.

Only a short 25min walk to the colosseum and many other beautiful attractions.

We stayed in the hotel for 4 nights.

When we made the reservation, it was clearly stated that daily housekeeping service was provided. However, during our entire stay, no housekeeping was performed at all, even after we made a direct request to the front desk. This was misleading and unacceptable.

In addition, when we requested clean towels for shower use, the staff member we spoke with responded in a rude and dismissive manner, telling us that if we wanted clean towels, we should stay in a 5-star hotel instead. This comment was highly unprofessional and inappropriate, and it made us feel disrespected as paying guests.

Furthermore, the shower conditions were extremely poor. The water temperature was unstable and unsafe—hot, scalding water would come out one minute, followed by freezing cold water the next. Because of this, my son became ill and caught a cold during our stay. This raises serious concerns about guest safety and basic facility maintenance.

Due to the terrible services and qualities of the hotel, we feel we were overcharged.

No bed bugs or anything like that. The area was a little bit sketchy, but kind of typical for being near the train station in any European city, so not THAT bad- just like a fair amount of homeless people around and stuff like that. I found the check-in process to be kind of awkward and the WiFi didn’t really work (or at least was very unreliable).

When I booked the room, the picture showed that I would have a sink and mirror in my room, but my room didn’t actually have the sink and mirror. So just keep in mind that the pictures they show when you’re booking may not be totally representative of what your room is actually like.

Also, a cleaner or someone kept coming in my room every day and opening the patio door and curtains but not changing the sheets or anything, which I found kind of weird (would be nice to have a “do not disturb” option).

At the end of the day, it’s kind of a “you get what you pay for” kind of place. Like it’s not super nice, but like I said there are no bed bugs or anything like that and it’s a really good location in terms of getting around the city (or taking day trips to other relatively nearby cities like Florence or Naples) since it’s right near the main train station. So I would recommend for a budget traveler, but with those caveats that I mentioned.

It was cheap and located in a good place. Hostel and room meet only your primitive needs, but reception is always helpful. Safe for being solo. No area for eating or drinking. Only small table with 2 chairs in front of the reception desk. No kitchen, but you can use microwave at the reception and also fridge. Only 1 plug socket in the room with many places to charge a phone. I used my power bank instead. You can also store you luggage at their place for 3 Euros after check out for the whole day.

Excellent Location

The best part of this hotel is its location - walking distance to Termini Station - so easy access to the train and metro stations. Even though it's called a \"hotel,\" expect to stay at a hostel. I stayed in a girls dormitory with 4 others. The room was clean and comfortable, but had poor wifi reception, so we had to go to the lobby for internet access. The washrooms were clean, but the shower is separated from the rest of the washroom by a single curtain, so bring flip flops if you don't want your feet to get wet. Hotel Cressy is on the 5th floor of the building, but the elevator is very old and small (only enough room for one person + luggage or 2 people). I ended up taking the stairs whenever I didn't have my luggage with me. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Hotel Cressy although being a little hard to find is a delightful budget option. Close to both the 'Termini' and walking distance of some of Romes greatest attractions this is not to be overlooked both in the fact of value and convinience.

Simple, classical and friendly

I had chosen Cressy in search of pleasant simplicity, and that's exactly what I found there. Immediately upon my arrival, I felt as if I had been invited to a Roman home, while still feeling free to do as I wish. The place is simple and typically stilish at the same time, very quiet, clean and tidy, staff and room mates were especially friendly and helpful. My other criterion - vicinity to the Temini train station - was also satisfied.

Do not recommend

The rooms are too small. Do not have a mirror or waste basket in the room. Lighting is very poor. The cot is steel and not suitable if you are above 5' 7\". Bathroom do not have towel rack or hook and you need to come out wet to collect your towel. Both WC and shower are at the same place. Floor is with glossy tiles and very slippery.

It was very hot and humid with no Ac or fan inside the room.

The hotel is in 5th floor. The lift is something unique and have never seen this type. Possiblity exists that you may have to climb 5 floors if some one do not close the inner two swing doors properly.
