My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortably equipped and clean, but on the smaller side, making it a bit challenging to move around freely. The service was exceptional, with the staff being incredibly friendly and helpful, especially when it came to providing directions to tourist spots. The location was convenient, being close to the Colosseum and the metro, but the surroundings were crowded with cars and litter in some areas. The dining options were average, with limited warm food choices, though the price was fair. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel rooms were clean, and the sheets and towels were changed daily, but there were ants crawling all over the furniture, and I had to pay for the first night. The room was really nice, especially when the hot tub was working, making it worth the price for a 3-4 night stay.

Our stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. The rooms were functional, clean, and comfortable, but being close to the sports courtyard meant enduring noisy children between 2.30pm to 3.30pm. The staff was really friendly and helpful, even leaving a bottle of champagne in our room. However, the room felt cramped and small. The location was excellent, making it easy to explore Rome, but there was some room for improvement in the dining options with limited choices available.

The hotel's location is extremely convenient, near the metro station, Coliseum, and with a great selection of restaurants nearby. The rooms were cozy, but can be a bit small, though nothing major. The service was exceptional, allowing for early check-in, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The dining options were basic and lacked fresh bread.
