Great location

This was a great place centrally located - we were able to walk everywhere. The room was nice. Our only complaint was the lack of a coffee maker. Only instant coffee with a kettle was provided.

First and most important was the care and help from Matteo. He was most courteous in waiting for our late arrival. So helpful with providing a map and suggestions of what to see. And so kind in keeping our luggage safe while we did some more sightseeing after our check out. Bus is nearby which is a plus...We got to our cruiseport from the hotel for less than $15 US dollars for 2 people. The hotel itself displays culture and has charm which is what I look for when visiting another country. I would return and stay at this hotel in a heartbeat.

Friendly and caring staff. Comfortable room. Location to attractions especially the Vatican and Tiber River makes this a great choice. Entrance a little tricky. Cafe at the corner has American breakfast, great lunch and “go figure” tasty pastries.
