Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were polite and helpful and very responsive on messaging. The property was very clean. We managed to get the Wi-Fi working. It was on the main shopping street and convenient for walking to the Vatican. Great restaurants nearby and a nice supermarket. The problem was the photos on the web are misleading. It was described as an apartment. It is not an apartment. There are no cooking facilities or living room. It is just one room with 3 parts each with basic beds plus 2 tiny bathrooms. We were a family: 2 adults and 4 kids aged 4-12 for 4 nights. There was no privacy between the beds as there were no doors. One double sofa bed was very uncomfortable. Everything was cramped with no space to move. There is another set of bedrooms sold separately but the bedroom photos on the web are all together so this is misleading making the property look much larger than it is. Lastly it was lacking storage space, towel hooks and things to make living easier.

This place was misadvertised. We were supposed to have a king size bed but instead it was a pull out sofa and the wifi didn’t work as well.

Short stay in Rome
Overall it was decent and we enjoyed the time in Rome (wasn’t in the room for most of the day) but there were a few things that tainted the stay. Room was very clean and the bathroom was better than expected. We weren’t too bothered about the room as we knew we wouldn’t spend much time here whilst in the city. Worth noting the breakfast was really nice and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The bed was a sofa bed and not what we thought we had paid for. When arriving in we found it difficult to find and had to wait for someone to let us into a room which they used for reception before going to our actual room, just seemed quite strange and gave us some doubt. Also, on a couple of the mornings (7-8am) we could hear building works (drilling/banging) in the building which woke us up and we weren’t made aware this would be happening during our stay.

Terrible Checkin/Checkout
Room was great, the front desk was not. We checked in late (an additional $50 fee) so chose to use a driver that the hotel arranged. When we arrived, we called and called the front desk without any answer as the front desk does not exist and there is no signage where to check in. Luckily our driver was still there and had her personal phone number. When we tried to check out at 8 AM, there was no one on the property to give the keys to and once again they did not answer the phone after repeatedly calling, they finally picked up and said nobody would be there until 9 AM. The room itself was a pull out bed, it was comfortable enough and the location is great if you want to visit the Vatican, but you should be aware of what issues you might have the with check-in/check-out process

Flat 285 stinks
The entire experience was disappointing. There was no Wi-Fi service during our stay. The breakfast was poor at best and not as described by Elena at check-in. The bed was terrible. It was like sleeping an a road full of rumblestrips. We were awakened each morning with drilling and grinding that sounded like they were in our room.

The place was amazing, safe were great, breakfast was good. The room was gorgeous but the floor boards were all lifting, the shower head was so rusty water was coming out the top of it. Just the little things that make a long day walking around less exiting to go back too. Oh and the bed was so noisy! Couldn’t move without waking each other up at all!
