This was a great experience. I was traveling with my husband and two children aged 11 and 14. The rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are large. In fact, our bathroom had two sinks a bathtub and shower. The breakfast had a lot of options and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The biggest shout out and praise goes to Marco, who helped us out in a bind! Unexpectedly, our flights going home to the United States were canceled, and Marco helped us call our Italian airline to get us on a different flight. He also helped us find a hotel reservation in Rome and spoke Italian to the people there and that resulted in a reduced rate. This is a great place to stay, especially for a family. We stayed here at the end of our 14 day trip and really loved it.

Amazing hotel!

Located very close to the train station, this hotel is incredibly convenient. The breakfast is delicious and the hotel has a great ambiance. I learned that the building dates back to the 1700s, which adds a unique charm. The front desk staff is excellent, and I couldn’t be happier with my stay!

Lovely hotel with personality. I actually felt like I was back in time. Excellent location. We walked everywhere. And the train station is around the corner. So we came from Roma by train, walked to the hotel from the station. My 68 yo mother walked that distance with a carry-on, you can do it to :). Everything was clean. Had a safe inside large enough for laptop. We have one queen and one small bed. The small bed was not the most comfortable, but manageable. Air conditioning was working fine and you can control the temperature yourself from inside your room. Hot water, amenities, all there, nice. The restroom door is a sliding door, so is not like a regular door but it does the trick. I might be blind but only could find one electrical outlet. Luckily, I carry a power strip so I could charge, camera, battery, and phones, computer all at once. Breakfast was great. Also there is a free drink during happy hour. Nice. Can store bags before or after check in/out before you head out to your next destination. Very nice hotel. Recommended.
