10/10 Exceptional

Fun and Funky Hotel with a Great Location
This hotel was very clean and I loved the funky atmosphere. My one complaint would be the service in the restaurant, especially the coffee machine and espresso bar. It was never clear if you should approach the barista, and when you did he was very curt and always seemed mad. Supposedly, you were to sit at a table and wait for the waitress to order coffee for you, but it took forever to do that. The espresso machine was always breaking down, and had horrible tasting milk. The esresso bar had better coffee and milk, but took forever. The breakfast choices were AMAZING, but often the hot fod, like eggs, bacon, sausage, etc... was cold. This hotel is located right near a Metro stop, and not too far from the Vatican, making it a great location.

Excellent hospitality!
It was a great stay overall! I love how everyone at the hotel was so incredibly friendly and helpful! Only downside was the metro was not working near by so we had to Uber everywhere since the hotel is bit far from things but other than that I would definitely come back when in Rome

Extremely Happy with this hotel, not sure how old is the Hotel but pretty much everything look brand New. we do have some issues with the toilet but that's pretty much everywhere in Italy & I not even get upset since the Customer service and room were amazing. I highly recommend this Hotel if you are coming to Rome close to everything.

4/10 Fair

Located in an apparently unsafe area of the city this old renovated property designed for adults only. If you arrive with kids be aware they are not shy to offer free po*n. And no way to avoid such an inconvenient offer as it is in the first screen once you turn on the TV in the movies page. Cleaning is good but they missed cleaning one night. As an Expedia VIP you get nothing. Rooms are all small (the XL is only 10sqr meters more then the small). They charge kids as adults for reservations and once there even if you are paying a 300 a night for the largest room you get no breakfast (you have to pay 22 per person). They have a restaurant, the worst pizza in Italy so far. The terrace is beautiful.They also have a Spa (beautiful I have to say) that also should be adults only. They say it is a swimming pool but it is 9 meters x 3 m long. So you have to reserve to go (hard for a hotel with 250 rooms). We wanted to leave the first night (we had a horrible experience walking back to the hotel) but they denied to return the money so we spent TONS in taxis to go anywhere. In general, a bad experience in a VIP (??) HOTEL.

This is a really great hotel with an awesome rooftop restaurant. Staff were wonderful and we enjoyed being in a quieter area. The caffe across the road was great, loved the owners and the veg/fruit shop a few steps away was also a good find. Will recommend.
