I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel, especially with the spacious and clean rooms that were even bigger than I expected. The cleanliness and comfort were remarkable, making my stay very enjoyable. The only downside was the limited breakfast options, but overall, it was great value for money.

I opted for nearby cafes instead of the hotel breakfast, as the offerings were limited. However, the convenience of having cafes and restaurants close by made up for it.

The hotel was a gem right next to a convenient bus stop, offering spacious and clean family rooms with a nice touch of a refrigerator and a vending machine nearby for a delightful cappuccino pick-me-up in the morning. Leaving the large, unique key at the front desk was a small inconvenience for the wonderful accommodations at a good price. The location was ideal for a leisurely 9-minute walk to the Colosseum, passing by gelato shops along the way.
Rooms

The spacious rooms were nicely clean, featuring a safe, closet, phone, big shower, and the added convenience of a refrigerator. The vending machine just outside the family room was a heavenly perk for morning cappuccinos. The only downside was the window view facing a neighboring building.

I stayed at this hotel and found it to be a comfortable place to stay. The rooms were clean and spacious, even though the shower was tiny. There could have been more furniture in the room, but overall, it was satisfactory for a short stay. The location was convenient, close to the metro station and within walking distance to major attractions like the Colosseum. The dining options were limited as breakfast was only served at a nearby cafe. The service was decent, but nothing exceptional. The facilities were adequate, though nothing particularly stood out.

The hotel is a convenient choice for those wanting easy access to Metro and Colosseum, although it can get cold inside. The modern facilities are a plus, making it ideal for a comfortable sleep while being quite basic overall. The location is superb for reaching key landmarks and close to local restaurants, but the nearby street can be noisy and not well-kept.
