Best Sleep at Mama Shelter

The main reason to recommend Mama Shelter is their beds. Extremely comfortable! Nice vibe overall. Good plentiful breakfast and very good drinks/food choices for dinner. Staff very helpful and genuinely doing a great job. They have a rooftop bar section that gives one more reason to stay inside the hotel. Highly recommended.

An excellent hotel! The front desk staff were very helpful and friendly. Made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. A real boost of confidence having never been to Rome and not speaking Italian. The neighbourhood felt entirely safe with grocery stores and a Metro stop very close by. While not in the heart of tourist Rome we actually preferred it, it wasn't insanely crowded like the Vatican or other popular tourist areas. We walked most everywhere anyway. The room wasn't huge, and there wasn't any storage furniture, no dresser or anything, but there was a large bathroom. A safe, mini fridge, large windows that opened, to a degree. A lovely rooftop patio with a great nighttime view, a small pool and sauna. The steam room was closed for the duration of our nine night stay. We only had one meal at the hotel, wasn't great. Some of the best food I've ever had was in Rome, but this to my mind was sub par. The staff took forever to serve us, even water, felt like the younger serving staff didn't care at all. Maybe it was just bad luck, I suspect this wasn't the norm, but we didn't go again. Seemed a little tailored to a tourist crowd that didn't know any better. But in fairness we only tried it once. But in the end that didn't matter much, there are no shortage of amazing dining experiences to be had (it is Rome after all) and was more than made up for by the quality of the room and the amazing service of the desk staff. We would happily stay there again. Thank you Mama!

Super trendy spot with a lively bar/restaurant. On the weekdays it is more quiet but on the weekend it turns into a fun spot. Staff was very warm and welcoming. They were attentive to our needs and the bar/restaurant staff was amazing and sociable, often cracking jokes with us and always answering our questions. On our last night for they all gathered to send us off with a shot and a big cheers/salute!
