    The breakfast should have better bakery and a bit more healthy options.the bakery was very bad unfortunately (especially considering that we were in Italy). It would be good to have more veggies and juices and also proper eggs(not from powder)The hotel was not renovated for a while but it is still very clean but I guess a renovation will be needed in a few years .

    It is a nice hotel with great location,very nice staff. The bed is comfortable and the room is spacious. It is clean and we got good bathroom products.the staff was very helpful and kind

    The triple room was somewhat small and did not have its own balcony.

    Great location in a beautiful residential area of Rome. The hotel is very close to the metro and close to some major attractions of the city. Great breakfast was provided every morning on a beautiful rooftop terrace from which the dome of St. Peter's Basilica was visible. Staff was also helpful and friendly.

    There was nothing I didn't like.

    The location is fantastic - in a residential area and close to a great shopping street and the river/tourist attractions. The roof terrace is beautiful, and the staff are helpful and accommodating. The bed was very comfortable. I recommend the balcony rooms.

    The hotel was very dated this added to its old charm somewhat however it is definitely due a renovation. The breakfast was poor with very little choice, the ‘hot’ food was cold and of poor quality. The coffee pods for the room were also limited which was disappointing as we had a superior room. Also a hard sell for return taxi to airport constantly from first arriving and every day! A bit off putting and the hotel quoted higher than other firms.

    The hotel was in a lovely quiet area within a 20 min walk to St Peter’s

    Electric kettle should be made available and free for any guest who stays and requested it. It is quite an essential needs for many of us. The TV perhaps can be upgraded.

    Breakfast was simple but very good. The lady serving the breakfast was very nice lady. Location very near metro easy to go anywhere. Price was good compared to other hotels.

    I am not a huge fan of heavily carpeted rooms, they make me feel dusty . However I appreciate them as a sound reducing measure. The front step for our ridiculous amount of luggage; but we were helped as soon as we showed up and as we were leaving.

    Beautiful classic old world furnishings. Gorgeous wood work, marble reception desk and bar counter. Lovely refinished bathroom. Loved the room darkening/sound reducing window shutters! We slept SO well! Quiet residential street with easy subway access, away from the heavily trafficked touristy hubbub. Very clean, well maintained. Thank you for the help carrying our suitcases up and down the front steps. We are in our 60’s and felt as though we were entering an Ivory Merchant movie.

    The space is very dated. Our rooms were in the basement and were a bit musty. A toilet didn’t work in one of our rooms. All in all, it is fine for a night or two to be close to the Vatican and for the breakfast.

    Very easy walk to the Vatican. Amazing breakfast on the rooftop terrace.

    Small things broken, e.g. sink drain. Bathroom a little cramped but depends on room because my sons’ room was bigger and perfectly fine. Lack of evening catering but ok it’s a small hotel so you go out to eat! Not much to do in the evenings.

    Old world Italian hotel. Nice breakfast on the roof terrace. Fantastic guys on Concierge! Lovely dog Heidi. Comfortable bed. Great location. 10-15 minutes walk to Vatican. Literally 50 metres from Lepanto Metro stop.

    Beautiful room, very high ceilings give feelings of spaciousness, very comfortable bed, bus and metro for multiple destinations at your door or very close by, very short walk to supermarchet restaurants and other shops, close to Tiber river. The best rooftop garden terrace breakfast. Everything from fresh fruit cereal yoghurts to hit scrambled eggs and bacon and most amazing cakes. Most lovely helpful breakfast attendants too. Reception staff helpful and answered all enquires and phoned taxi for our departure to Termini at the end of our stay. Quiet location away from the busyness of central tourist areas yet still close enough to walk or bus or metro if not walking that much.

    The hotel is cute and small but the air wasn’t the best and we were there during extremely hot temps. The breakfast in the morning was great;) The shower in my room has weird positioned sprayers that weren’t ideal. Overall the hotel fit the the needs of our brief stay prior to boarding our cruise.
