“The location, near Termini Station, makes it easy to get around Rome. I found that the friendly staff goes the extra mile, even assisting with lost luggage. While the décor is a bit dated, it has a certain Italian charm, including a vintage lift.”

the air conditioning worked quite well, not bad for a place near a train station.

the room was dark, a fact they attempted to mask with questionable lighting. worse, noise from the street seeped in all night, so earplugs became a necessity for sleeping there.. what a surprise, right?

I found the provided toiletries quite useful, as was the kettle in the room. The location worked very well. It was near to main attractions. The bathroom also had a nice, large shower (it was really enjoyable).

The lobby felt a bit old and dimly lit. It lacked the fresh, modern feel that I expected from the pictures.
