Great location, comfy

The room was pretty nice. I liked the breakfast at a nearby cafe - it was a couple pieces of meat and cheese with coffee, bread, yogurt, croissant. It was a little warm in the room but it’s also summer in Italy. The location was nice, a short walk to the Colosseum. It was also walking distance (about a mile) to Termini, so I was able to save on a bus/taxi.

We had a great stay here. The room is spacious and gives you a real Rome feeling with the furniture and exposed brick ceiling. Grateful to have been on the bottom floor as the stair case up is quite windy. A staircase we climbed many times to enjoy the beautiful patio up top. The down side to the bottom floor room would be the sound of vehicles right by the window but I do believe all ground floor rooms in Rome may have this same issue. The bathroom is clean and everything worked really well. The location is great for walking and I cannot say enough great things about the included breakfast. The breakfast is at a small restaurant down the street and the food was always served fast and fresh. Note it’s a set menu but we enjoyed it all 5 mornings and the money saved was an added bonus! The staff were all so incredibly helpful weather we needed to borrow an iron or our hair dryer wasn’t working, they even called us a cab at check out! If you want a great authentic Roman experience this is a great place to stay I would absolutely stay here again.

Somewhere to sleep!

You needed to check-in at the reception of the sister hotel, ll Covo was 3 buildings along. The room we had was tiny, dark and cheaply furnished, noisy, the lift was tiny - 1 person and a small case - not suitable for a buggy or wheelchair. Breakfast was served at a cafe down the road on a small square. Continental was served but service wasn't personal/friendly. The room was clean. The terrace area was ok - acessed feom the sister hotel - no bar but you could take your own drinks/food up. The location was good - 10min from the colosseum. We wouldn't choose to stay here again, feeling disappointed.

Walks to the Colosseum

The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was beautiful. Would have loved to have been able to move the shower head and a second pillow would have been nice but those were small things to complain about when we could walk to the Colosseum everyday lol.

Great hotel, would recommend!

Our group stayed in their largest "family" room that sleeps 4. It was clean, and in a great part of the city. One of the beds was definitely a lot less comfortable than the other (it's the bed not pictured in any photos). Breakfast in the morning was great - I suggest going down to the restaurant affiliated with them down the block vs eating on site. The only strange thing was needing 3 different keys to get into the room. But, happy they took safety seriously.

For the most part we liked the hotel..The staff were friendly and most of them helpful. Thre hotel is located near a metro station which is connected to the train station. The room was nice and bed was comfortable. Why we give it a three star rating is the first night of our stay there was no hot water. Two staff members came and couldn't fix the problem, the next day someone finally turned on a separate boiler for the room. The other reason was on our last night the WiFi didn't work, as a tourist the plan I got was slow running in the hotel and I needed to make some bookings. I guess our room had a separate WiFi link and a staff member tried to fix it no go. She then told me she needed her phone and left. I kept waiting for her to come back with an update or solution. Finally after ten minutes I went back to the front desk and then she told me there was nothing the hotel could do until the morning. She did offer to move us to another room but it was getting late and we didn't want to have pack up and change rooms. We were disappointed that the hotel didn’t offer any compensation for the lack of services we received. So an ok place but I can't give it a recommendation.
