Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was much smaller and less renovated than the pictures suggest, lacking space and comfort in the room, but it's wonderfully located near the Vatican and other key attractions. The dining options were quite poor, only offering basic choices, but the hotel service was very helpful and efficient, even assisting with booking opera tickets.
The hotel has tiny rooms with beds that could belong in a prison, located on a main road that gives a scary movie vibe. However, the service is customer-focused and welcoming, with a professional touch in dealing with requests like canceling reservations. The location is excellent, close to key attractions like the Vatican, but with high parking fees. The dining options are limited with basic breakfast choices, though the pastries are indulgent.
The hotel is in a convenient location close to Vatican and restaurants, with friendly staff. However, the room conditions could be improved, and the breakfast lacks variety. The pricing offers a satisfactory value for the services provided.
The hotel's rooms looked very different from the photos, with no comfortable chair for relaxation and appeared smaller and less renovated than expected. The cold, damp, and musty smell in the room was concerning. On the positive side, the service was friendly and helpful, offering views of the dome of St Peter's from the room at a good price. The location was ideal, near Vatican City and within a short walk, perfect for sightseeing and public transport connections. The dining options, although limited, included Italian cheeses, hams, croissants, and fruits, lacking fresh vegetables and high-quality juice. The facilities were adequate for a pleasant stay.
The hotel is ideally situated near the Vatican and close to historical sites, making it perfect for sightseeing. The rooms, although small, are practical and well-arranged. The service is excellent with friendly and helpful staff. Dining options are adequate but not at a 3-star level.
The hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms were always very clean but much smaller and less renovated than the pictures suggest. The service had its highs and lows, from not being accommodating to booking opera tickets and answering questions. The location was excellent being close to St Peter's, with a taxi rank outside. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with delicious options but also some disappointments.
