Hotel Altavilla  

very good location

only the location

horrible room that should cost 20 Euro. toilet under the shower, dark room window not able to open, old furnishure...complete horror for 100 Euro! never ever

It's ideal for sightseeing. I liked how close it was to Termini station, even at our first time in Rome we've arrived in 5 min. The staff was helpful

There's only 1 elevator and no stairs. (At least we couldn't find it) It gets crowdy every morning.. The food tends to run out around 9, though you can eat till 9:30. GF was somplaining to smell also coming from the bathroom.

The location is excellent , walking distance from the Roma Termini, lots of good quality , not expensive, Italian restaurants around the hotel; The staff was good, could provide all information reliably. The laundry and the bedsheets was clean. Beds were comfortable. Shower was good, hot water with sufficient pressure.

The breakfast was not up to the mark. The rooms were old, some of the furniture in our room was dirty. The toilets were old, general appearance needs improvement

Good location

Hidden costs. Had to pay for air conditioning at £15 oer day but the air conditioning unit did not work. Extremely hot during the time in Rome and had no choice but to ask for it. Breakfasts were good but if only got there in the second half of the session there would be nothing left. Would not reccommend the Hotel to anyone.

Hotel Altavila is located quiet near from the Termini station and metro station, so it was very convenient for us. The hotel is small, but there are all facilities (except internet). Our room was on the third floor, but the lift in the bulding worked regularly. The room was even larger than we supposed: we had two extra beds. We also liked a high ceiling. The room was cleaned every day. The staff is very friendly, they speak good English and gave us a lot of interesting information. Breakfast was included into the price. It was served downstairs in the cafe. It was very convenient to have breakfast before going to excursions. If you want to buy some more food there is a large supermarket inTermini station. I really think that it is a nice budget hotel and recommend it to all the tourists.

Hotel staff were most helpful after I lost my wallet with cards, cash and driving license within first few hours of our stay in Rome! Flexible and helpful at all times. The location could not have been better, so near to the Metro. Advice to other travellers. Watch your belongings in crowded streets and metro especially.

Cannot think of anything. We were on 6th Floor appartment, which took a while to get to in a narrow lift, but the view and space was fine.

People from hotel were very kind and nothing was a problem. Sure, it is not so luxusary hotel but due to the price I cannot complain anything.

Location. Hotel staff is very friendly.

Cold, long without repair. Very sad feeling of the hotel.

1. Very nice staff, everyone can speak English well and helpful (Compare to my last stay in Barcelona...) 2. Perfect location, easy walking from Termini (which has very convenient train to FCO airport and it's also a metro station) and Republica metro station. 3. Breakfast included.

1. No wifi in the room which is very inconvenient, everybody was crowded in the lobby to get the access to the internet. 2. The facility of the hotel is very old, some of them are broken already but still usable.The closestool has a strange flushing system which doesn't always able to clean the closestool, soundproof of the room is not very good.

I like the location we were in. We were in walking distance to most of the noted landmarks such as the Coliseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hills.

I didn't like the bathrooms. The sink created backwater every time we used the faucet. Also the shower water wasn't consistent. The water pressure kept fluctuating, to the point where it became difficult some days to take a shower. The tub needs some re-modeling...there were a few cracks on it's interior.

I have chosen Altavilla because of its location and price. But I was really, really, disappointed.

The hotel staff was not responsive at all. I asked for a glass of hot water for my elder guests as they used to drink frequently tea. The staff even did not try to arrange it and/or felt sorry that they can`t do it. Secondly, they lied regarding taxi and city tour bus. They are really not realiable.

Buffet breakfast - as many cups of coffee as you want. Great location - all historical places are accessible by foot.

Thin walls - but it's a problem of all hotels in Europe.
