L’hotel si trova a pochi passi dalla stazione Termini. Comodo da raggiungere a piedi. Stanza molto bella, spaziosa e pulita. Ho dormito benissimo. Colazione ottima, tanta varietà di prodotti. E davvero tanto gentili le ragazze della sala colazione. Anche in reception sono veramente carini e disponibili. Ottimo soggiorno presso questa struttura. Tornerò.
Tutto perfetto.

10.0
The staff were super friendly and extremely helpful. They even prepared a breakfast box for us since we were checking out early. Hotel has an elevator which in Italy is so helpful and a security gate after hours. Room was cute, clean and quiet. Location could’ve been a little closer to sights but maybe if it weren’t so hot, it wouldn’t been as bad. There’s also a coffee shop and two restaurants just downstairs which is convenient.
Size could’ve been a little larger but not a huge deal.

The receptionist was awsome. She helped us find a solution when the AC broke in the heat.

First of all, staff were amazing. Every staff member we came into contact with was incredibly cheerful, happy in their work, friendly, chatty, and extremely helpful - nothing was too much trouble!
We liked the style of the room, it was decorated nicely, and the facilities were of a good standard, including a big TV, comfy bed, good shower (rain and handheld), mini bar.
Location was really good. 10 minute walk from Roma Termini railway station, 10 minute walk to the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain. Metro stop c5-10 minute walk away, too.
Good quality selection at breakfast, mainly continental, but a small hot offering too.
Not much we didn’t like, but the room had a few rough edges that could probably be fairly easily addressed.
Things like a fairly large section of chipped paint at one side of the bed behind one of the bedside tables, loose wardrobe door knobs, loose fitting pipe cover to the towel rail in the room. Toilet also had a bit of an issue with not knowing when to stop refilling, but think that was related to the flush as well.
All minor things in the grand scheme of things, but would’ve just elevated it further.

Excellent location, nice breakfast and kind team.
First of all, it makes absolutely no sense to include this hotel under the "Boutique" category, it is an extremely misleading term.
It's a simple budget hotel with a very nice location and kind service. Our room (301) came to the point of lacking the basics that you would expect to be fully functional even in any hotel nearby you could easily book for half the price.
The toilet flush in our room didn't work well, the safe wasn't working at all and, as mentioned by multiple negative reviews previously, you have to take a bath under very cold water because there is little to none hot water coming due to low pressure or whatever. Other than that, our room had a terrible smell coming from the AC whenever it was on and it wasn't cleaned properly when we arrived.
The included breakfast was nice and after giving them our feedback during the checkout they offered a little discount by waiving final fees.
Unfortunately, the reality is that such room should never be offered to any client, especially under the "Boutique Hotel" concept and even less under these specifically bad conditions, lacking maintenance of the very basic stuff you would expect anywhere.

The intercom is under the hotel sign at the street. They will provide you with the code to open the gate. Easy 1km walk from Roma Termini (Via Cavour, then Via Agostino Depretis), and 1km from the Trevi Fountain. It is east of the main tourist monuments, but I have been to Rome before and I wanted to be in walking distance of the central train station. 5-stars for service both at reception and at breakfast. Plenty of restaurants nearby. Great value.

The breakfast was pleasant - everything you need was there. The hotel has a very good location. All major attractions were close. The bus and subway stop are a short walk away.

the staff were so very helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
it wasn’t made clear that there were several steps up to the lift, which was a problem for me, a wheelchair user. I was able to use crutches but at a considerable amount of discomfort. Had I not been able to do this at all, I wouldn’t have been able to access the hotel. The breakfast room was also too small to accommodate a wheelchair. I don’t think this hotel is suitable for a disabled person which is a pity because it was lovely once I got in there. perhaps these things could be pointed out more clearly on the facilities page?

Perfect as always - good location, clean rooms and friendly staff.
