Worth the money we paid for.

The room is clean, staff were friendly, although the bathroom is a bit small but for the price we paid is just ok. It's near and accessible to most of the attraction, train station and restaurants. It's right at the centre of Rome. Highly recommended.

Good place to stay in Rome

Lovely, small hotel in a good location. Room was comfortable and well kept with daily housekeeping. Fridge and air con were good. Nice shower. Location good. Lots of restaurant options close by for breakfast/ dinner/ gelato/ drinks. Metro a few mins walk away (Vittorio Emanuele). It is a busy area so can be noisy outside. Staff very welcoming and helpful.

Everyone was so friendly there. The main entrance was under construction, but that’s like everything in Europe. The front desk girls were amazing. They helped me out so much. Solo girl traveler felt very comfortable. Staying there at the location was great. Is it four seasons no. But it has a Lyft. It’s secure the lady who cleans the rooms did such an amazing job. I would recommend it!! The bed and the pillows were so comfortable💕

Tho only concern in this property is that their bathroom is too small. Anyone who weighs 200lbs will definitely not fit or be able to move inside the bathroom. (We booked a family room that sleeps 4, 2 adults 2 children).
