  Celeste, United States
• Very good 4.3/5 (detail)

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were friendly and very helpful and informative. We got a very good rate by going in January, I feel it is probably the best time to visit the city with less crowds and lower costs. The room was small, but I would say, rather, it was quaint. It's small but you're in Rome so you shouldn't be in your room anyway! It isn't perfect. The shower door was a little awkward, and the room safe didn't work. (But they offered for us to keep our passports in the safe at the front desk.) But again, it's not a 5 star hotel, but still better than we expected for the great price we got. The open window was awesome. I loved having the option to have it wide open for fresh air. The view was great from our 5th floor room of the block. One of my favorite parts of the room.
The breakfast was sufficient for the money we spent on the room and really, we were in Rome, so it was great to eat a quick breakfast at the hotel and go on and find some food while exploring. My suggestion would be to include maybe packets of oatmeal that can be added to hot water, in addition to the cereal and croissants. The woman working the breakfast was lovely. She was very friendly and helpful. Downside: the orange juice was kept in a cabinet instead of a refrigerator, which was not good. I would suggest either storing it in the refrigerator or just making fresh orange juice in the morning.
The location was brilliant. It was walking distance to everything. We took the train only once to the Vatican City, but it was such a nice day we walked all the way back, taking in the city all the way back. Really great location! The staff was the true highlight of the hotel. I would recommend it to a friend and would consider staying there again if I returned in the future. Thanks for a great stay!
