Very tired. Rooms are in need of serious renovation (shower wand had to lay on floor, towel bar fell apart, desk was wobbly, headboard 'repaired' and decorated with red tape) and redecorating (wall paper damaged, furniture in bad shape). Staff were good and the location is great, very close to Termini with some nice restaurants on the doorstep.

It is not obvious where the hotel entrance is. We ended up walking into the Hotel California located directly next door. It must happen a lot because the concierge desk was not the most welcoming or helpful. The location is a 5 minute walk to Termini Station which made it super easy to travel around the city. There are several restaurants just outside the hotel, all reasonably priced and one open for breakfast that was beyond just a croissant and coffee. The building was quite old, but does include a small elevator making it easy to take luggage up and down. There is a 24-hour concierge desk; however the staff are not overly friendly, though they did everything that we asked of them including arranging a taxi pick up to head to the airport. It took minutes to get a taxi as they come from Termini station. The room was clean; however you only receive clean towels every third day which was disappointing. The beds were rock hard and not the most comfortable. The room served our purpose of a place to lay our heads for our three-night stay, but I would not have wanted to be there much longer than that.

Well - we got there early and they took our passport information and we left our bags as our room wasn’t ready. We departed and toured the Vatican and walked around the city. We returned to the hotel at about 7:00. Our room there that we had reserved based on the pictures and comments was no longer available. The front desk guy took us across the street “to another hotel owned by the same people.” I can say that we saw no signs of bugs. But, I would also say in my thirty years of traveling I have not stayed in a room worse than this. Lucky it was only one night. The people running the place were friendly. But, not a nice place....

I understand that this is a budget stay, so if that’s what your looking for it’s fine. It’s old and aged, but for the most part clean. The bathroom could’ve used a more detailed scrub down. It’s a great location, next to the train station. Plenty of restaurants and shops.

The hotel was a little difficult to find and get into but the directions on their actual website helped a lot. The room was clean but there was some stains on some of the fabrics and there was a few chunks of hair in one of the beds that may have been trapped in one of the blankets when it was washed that shook free or left when it was being made that was not what you wanted to see when opening your bed.

Convenient. But not recommended for vacation.
So... this location from train station is VERY convenient. The room is good sized! It’s not very comfortable and has a pay by the hour type of feeling. We had rented it more because we wanted a place near the station to keep our things and quick shower before heading to the airport.

The room was spacious, very clean and everything in good working order. The receptionist was willing to go above and beyond her duties to be helpful, which was a lovely touch. I must add, the room was very quiet and able to have a peaceful nights sleep. The beds were very firm but I’m sure staff would have even helped with this had we mentioned it. For the size and facilities this was a very good find in a slightly more relaxed and convenient location.

It’s a very nice hotel. With a small bathroom. They essentially have bought multiple apartments and converted each room into a hotel room and converted the closets to bath and washroom. The toilet was crammed with the sink right in your face :-/ The walls between the hotel “ rooms” are thin and you can hear the neighbouring units. I wouldn’t go there if you have kids but if you need a place to crash it’s great!

Expedia exagerated the facilities, such as stocked minibar. There is a cooler but they no longer stock it with anything. That is Expedia mis representing. It is 2 star.

The first day we arrived after a very last nag flight, the gal at the front desk said to pay the city tax in cash not credit and thankfully we just had enough cash to pay it. They then began to tell us the plumbing was broke in our room and said we could go across the street to another hotel until the room was ready. The hotel across the street was awful. Worse than youth hostels. But we were tired and wanted to sleep. The manager assured us the room was just as nice as Sweet Home which was a complete lie. The manager did not reimburse us for putting us in a terrible inconvenience and in a rotten hotel. Two days later we came back to sweet home. The only plus to the hotel was the nice young lady working the desk most days and the location was 2 blocks from Termini. Otherwise our family felt uncomfortable at times and felt that we could not trust the management of this hotel.

The staff were really nice and friendly. The rooms were clean with fresh towels provided when requested. The area is so convenient, surrounded by restaurants and the bus and underground stations are 3 mins walk away. The only thing I didn’t like was the sink and shower are a bit blocked, so it takes a while for water to drain and the aircon and refrigerator were not cool enough. But all in all, we felt safe and enjoyed staying at the hotel.

The property is an antique building located in the center of Rome, near to the Roma terminal. Is perfect if you just need a place where to sleep while you go to explore Rome. Very clean and organized the only detail is that the toilet had a bit issue since the water doesn’t run strong from the plumbers Everything else was perfect

WORST HOTEL I HAVE EVER BEEN TO
Good location and very near to nice restaurants. Terrible service because the manager and the staff do not know how to take accountability for their mistakes. 1. They offered to arrange a private taxi to pick us up from airport but no one was waiting for us when we arrived. Imagine the stress that they caused us!! 2. The manager did not issue a receipt when we paid for our stay!!!!! 3. They cleaned our room but did not change the towels 4. There are only 2 sockets in the room for 4 people. 5. The manager told us that he will book a taxi for us to drop us off at the airport on the day of our flight home, but when we checked out, the hotel staff on duty doesn’t know anything about it. It’s like the staff are not talking to one another regarding the requests and needs of their clients. The manager doesn’t know how to manage the hotel and the staff. THEY DO NOT OWN UP TO THEIR MISTAKES AND THEY KEEP ON BLAMING OTHERS FOR THEIR WRONGDOINGS.

The good: Checking was easy and staff was pleasant and friendly. We felt secure with video cameras and buzzing us inside hotel and to room corridor. Location was good, many restaurants and shops around. Room was clean and we had plenty of room, with beds for our entire family. The bad: AC was not cooling well, so it was hot in the room, and the sheets were uncomfortable and made alot of noise every time someone moved.

Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly, and in a good location for access to the train station, the owner was especially welcoming. The hotel reception is on the first floor and some of the rooms are also on the second floor accessed by a communal lift, access to the building and second floor rooms requires you to be buzzed in, which makes you feel safer. Rooms were a good size for a city hotel and well equipped, bathrooms a little cramped but normal for city hotels where space is a premium. As a side note there is an excellent restaurant located right outside the hotel so you don’t need to travel for a good meal. Overall very happy with the experience and would definitely recommend this place
