Two other friends and myself stayed at this hotel for four nights in late May. This hotel is so centrally located, it's unbelievable. To the left of the hotel lies the Roman Forum, or ancient ruins, as well as the Colosseum. To the right is lively Campo de Fiori, Piazza Navona and the Vatican. Directly behind the hotel you will find the Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps. Awesome! Right next door to the hotel is an amazing gelateria where I ate gelato every single day. For 2,50 euro you get two different gelato flavors and they decorate your cone with cute waffle pieces and candy. Yum! Definitely try it.
As for the hotel itself, we really enjoyed it. Our room was on the top level and was surrounded by cute breakfast tables where guests would eat in the morning. The room was more modern and the beds were VERY comfortable. The bathroom was also very nice, however no shower curtains (as was the case throughout all of Europe). With regard to cleanliness, the room was very clean. I would definitely recommend this hotel. One thing I did not like was that air conditioning was controlled by the receptionist. When turned on, our room would be freezing. When off, we would sweat as Rome is very hot in the summer.
The hotel staff, however, were sketch. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by a kind young woman who was very helpful and pointed out several locations on a map for us to visit. Throughout the remainder of our stay, the staff seemed to get annoyed with our questions. When we requested a cab back to the airport in advance, we were told no cabs would be available at that time (5pm) and we had to pay extra for a private driver. Our next destination was to the Greek Islands and we had asked the receptionist to call our hotel for us in Greece as our room phone was broken. She refused and quickly became very annoyed with us. Other than her attitude, our experience at this hotel was phenomenal read more
