Hotel Stromboli

staff, location, and facilities

I just need a bed for the night whilst passing through the city (such a shame, I know) but I thought this was a good deal given the location and price. The room was in an annex seperate from the main hotel (round the corner and into a side door) and it was the top floor (sixth). The lift was a bit unique but only went to floor five but that didn't bother me. The room was of adequate size and I'm going to say quality and cleanliness but very, very tired (see later). The bathroom was clean and modern, the TV worked and there was a balcony (for smokers essentialy as it wasn't the most appealing view of an inner Rome courtyard). The breakfast was inclusive and although it was served in the main hotel reception requiring a toddle round the corner, it was absolutely exceptional. For the location, the price was excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful - I was able to obtain an iron no problem at all.

The shower was barely lukewarm the following morning despite waiting a while - perhaps due to being top floor? This side of the hotel was extremely dated. I'm not going to say dirty just extremely worn., The carpets in the hallways had been worn to the backing! The balcony WAS dirty. It looked like it hadn't been cleaned all year and it and the plastic table and chairs were covered in thick city grime.

The staff was very friendly, kind, and helpful. The location was also excellent, convenient, and close to everything. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you for the warm welcome and great service!

Rien

Close to lots of restaurants and walking distance to lots of places to visit.

Internet was horrible, the smell as you get in rooms is not that great. The ac was not that refreshing.
