Hotel is well situationed. Dead-end street so fairly quite. Shops and restaurants all around and Via Nationale is just a block away. Took a taxi from Termini to hotel, 11euros. Hotel is on 3rd floor of a bldg accessible by elevator. Easy check in intructions were provided. Ladies at the front desk were very welcoming and helpful. We had Rm 310, clean, good size, quiet room, good size bathroom and shower. Asked for a luggage rack and it was provided immediately. Good size closet with safe. Bed was confortable with extra pillows. My only complaint was that the mattress was only covered by a bed sheet, no mattress protector. I immediately brought this up to the front desk. It was evening, so I asked for an extra sheet and added an extra layer to the mattress until the next day when housekeeping arrived to redo our bed properly. Breakfast area is indoor and outdoor on the terrace. Guests select the breakfast time slot everyday as the it is not a large space. Breakfast items was simple, good and fresh. Its not a huge selection, but was fine. Cold meets with cheese, scrambled or hard boiled eggs, sausage, cereal, toast, sliced fresh fruit, and of course pastries. Location on the hotel was great. Very close to Termini train station and walking distance to both Barberini and Republica Metro stations however we just walked everywhere. We did take the local bus to Trastevere on night and it was 1 bus ride, LINE H, very easy. Local bus stop and taxi stop are also very close, located at the corner of Via National and Via Genova (hotel address) in front of the really large white palazzo and the Santi Vitale Basilica. We took a taxi from this taxi location stop to Fiumicino Airport, took 45 min at 9am, also very convenient, fixed rate 55E. Paid $400Cdn/night to also include breakfast on Booking.com(not required), a bit steep but booked last minute and worth being close to the center.
Mattress cover was not on the mattress the first night, only 1 cover sheet. I asked for an extra sheet for the 1st night since it was late evening and proper mattress protector was put on the 2nd day of our stay. Apparently it was an oversight by housekeeping. Front desk staff was apologetic and assisted as needed.
Breakfast was simple, could use a bit more variety from day to day but not a big deal.

The staff were super friendly and helped us with a map and information about where the main locations of sight seeing were. They remembered our orders for breakfast and greeted us kindly. The room was cleaned every day perfectly. Mauro was a great staff member.
We appreciated the great air conditioning.
Our stay was perfect.

The ladies at the front desk were very helpful and kind. We asked for directions for things and they were more than helpful with anything we needed. Their kindness made the hotel more enjoyable.
Location was good
Clean and cleaning staff was great!
Didn’t hear too much noise from room.
Unique building
The older lady working the property gate was extremely rude. The first night we were trying to figure out how to find the place. As we were getting our bearings and looking on our phone, a man opened to door to his building and let us in. We were trying to get our internet to work to look for directions on where to go. Before we could find them, she was screaming at us and gesturing that we were stupid multiple times . It was a terrible first impression of Rome
The shower was dangerous. Both my husband and I slipped in the shower. We had to put a towel down inside the shower. Shampoo was a combined body wash and it was terrible on my hair.
The ac wasn’t working well until our last day. We asked for a fan, no fan. We complained about it leaking and the following day ( our last day) it was working great. It must have gotten fixed while we were out that day.
The room had a strange smell every time I walked in. They tried to cover it up with oils, but it still had a weird smell.
