    I did not like that I could not take a hit shower. The water was lukewarm. The shower head had mold and so did the tile in the shower. Everything thing else was very nice and clean.

    The room was nice and spacious.

    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.

    Rooftop terrace for breakfast was delightful. Staff was wonderfully friendly, accommodating, and helpful where you wanted and needed them. Charming century boutique hotel. We walked everywhere from the hotel and found the neighborhood quite safe (no riff raff or sketchy properties).

    We stayed in a basement room, it was dark and had a musty smell

    The location of the hotel is nice, right next to the metro station towards the city center. It is not a fancy place but great for a couple days. The bed was really comfortable. The breakfast is on the top floor with nice view and the food is pretty good for Italian breakfast standards.

    I liked the property except that after the first day and we were there a week we were told that there was no more coffee for the room so we had to go buy our own.

    I like that the property is within walking distance to all the popular attractions!

    for a 4 stars Hotel it's much more to expect. The Bathroom infrastructure is in decay, the breakfast offer is to limited. In general the Hotel is decaying with time, and it needs for this quality a good renovation. The Rooms downstairs are to avoid, because one ears everything above. To much expensive for the offering.

    The Location is perfect, outside the historical center, and yet everytthing reachabel on foot. For those wo are travelling with car is perfect. Nice Breakfast Terrasse and frendly Personal
