    Toilet was not great, continously leaking, and the shower head was held up by string. Nice balcony but at least weed the flower beds.

    Loved the granite paved entrance with sandstone walls and bougainvillea plants.

    In high season if all hotels booked in city center, this can be a good option.

    The size of the room is ok, but the jacuzzi on it looks quite old, it can sound attractive, but as it is old it does not inspire to use it much. I would say, the cleaning of the room can be improved. Also I didn't like the size of the shower.

    At the time of our trip all hotels in the center of the city were fully booked, this hotel was one of the best options to stay away of the city. It is very convenient as the hotel is located between two metro stations, and even the metro was not working after 21:00 hrs, there were substitute busses that can take you there with no issues. The area is secure and very vivid with some 24 hrs restaurants and bars nearby. The room was equipped with Air Conditioner (Mini Split) so even it was very hot outside the nights were pleasant. Room is equipped as well with a small fridge and TV.

    The bathroom and the fact that they threw some of our stuff like my milktea cup from Florence and my sisters deodorant. We went out to go somewhere then when we came back at night they were missing. Our stuff was all like touched and moved.

    It would have been good to know some of the facilities were not available prior to booking, so other opportunities could be looked at. A couple of issues with cockroaches in the bathroom did not amuse my family member.

    Handy to the metro stations and to supermarkets. The location was handy with a good coffee shop just up the road which made things comfortable, and local shopping centres kept everyone entertained.

    - WiFi did NOT work from the room. - Too many stairs and no help with luggage. - Loud noise from adjacent neighbor/rooms next door. - Other young staff was a bit rude, to me and other guests.

    - Room was decently decorated, small but bigger than other hotels in Rome. Comfortable bed and lots of towels. - Close to Metro (train) and local restaurants/shops/grocery/pharmacy. - Able to book taxi for airport (for a fee). - David, the manager was super nice and helpful.

    there is no elevator from the entrance to the reception area, so if you have heavy luggage like I did, be prepared for a lot of stairs

    The location was OK if you need to be in that area for a specific reason

    Poor attention to details (holes in the wall, rust on radiator , limescale in the shower, dust on air conditioner and hair on the pillowcases) I ve asked a spare blanket because it was cold at night, they couldn’t give me one ! That’s unacceptable

    Wi-fi never worked (neither in the room nor in the pool). Note: the hotel does not provide towels for the pool.

    Friendly staff at the reception. The room was clean and with basic facilities. The pool is small but it's nice for a quick dive.

    The big deal the receptionist made just because we wanted to store our bikes in a safe place which is the storage area. The fact we asked for a second key-card and they didn't have. For a less amount of money I found a 4 stars hotel in Rome Parioli.

    I still don't know

    I didn't like the guy from sri-lanka he was very unhelpful didn't like his job, it took me 2 hours just to resolve issues he kept making excuses then left a message with the boss saying this is not my work. Maintenance needs to improve as some stuff was broken.

    The guy from the Philippines and the guy from peru were wonderful at their job and looked after my stuff.

    I didn't receive a receipt, I asked there, left my email and asked through the website of booking. It was really very disappointing.

    There was an available parking lot, but it was under payment and not with many spots. I was not aware from the booking webasite.

    we booked this place as it advertised a pool which by the way is filled with dirty green swamp water so can not be used the images on the website are nothing like what you end up in the room stank of urine it was noticeably dirty including fridge bed and bathroom area even the balcony was dirty it’s like the place has been abandoned upon our check in we went up to the room and straight away there was a dirty mop bucket by our door it was really dark in the corridors like bulbs had gone we then went to reception to ask about the location of pool to which the reception just looked at us clueless after explaining it over and over again about us wanting to use a pool he finally realised what we were saying but then said it won’t be ready for a week! if we had of known this we would have booked somewhere else this hotel is honestly the worst place I’ve ever stayed I have a lot more images also of everything mentioned too I would like a refund as this ruined our whole holiday and is not as advertised on the site

    absolutely nothing this place is a dive and a scam
