Staying at this hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were nice and clean, although a bit small and prone to smelling like smoke from outside. The breakfast was average, and it would have been more convenient as a buffet. The shower was a bit cramped, but the peaceful ambiance allowed for a restful sleep. The highlight was the sweet little balcony in the quad that offered a lovely spot to enjoy the morning sun.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were in another building just a 2-minute walk from the main hotel, which was nice as we had our own space while still enjoying all the hotel perks like breakfast and assistance. The room was a bit small but well-equipped. The service was accommodating, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful with local tips. The location couldn't be better, right in the middle of Rome's historic center with major attractions within walking distance. The dining experience was good, although the menu options were limited. Overall, a fantastic value for the money.

The hotel had some charming features like the terrace in the room but felt a bit run-down, though that didn't bother us much. The warm and stuffy room upon late-night arrival was a downer. The service was top-notch with valuable local tips, and the location was brilliant for exploring Rome by foot. The dining experience offered a nice variety but was pricey for extras.

The hotel's rooms were old, small, and dirty, more resembling a B&B than a hotel. Despite the street noise, cigarette smoke smell, and limited walking space around the small double bed, the location was outstanding. The service provided by the staff was brilliant, offering excellent advice and recommendations daily. However, the dining experience was pleasant with a friendly atmosphere and various breakfast options available. The facilities provided a nice touch to the stay.
