Proximity to Basilica di Santa Croce, and to the St John Lateran Basilica, transportation convenience for bus or train, quiet, few meters from a free water dispensing station, friendly staff at reception. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.

Whilst our room was basic and slightly tired. It was comfortable and clean.
A quirky place to stay.
Staff are really helpful and friendly.
Breakfast on the roof top can’t be missed, fab views!

From the outside the property is spectacular, the staff are very friendly and helpful, and the communal spaces well appointed. The room however was very basic, poor furniture and dated decor.

We have used this hotel on every trip, six times, it is not the Hilton and does not have those costs but, the Hilton does not have the architecture, the Hilton is also centuries younger, it is a hotel with 1st class staff, all of whom are interested in your contentment during your stay, all go out of their way to to help with any requests so, a 1st class stay is always had.

Location over a good night's sleep
While the location was optimal for visiting Santa Croce, Scala Santa, and St. John Lateran, the beds were little more than a 2 inch mattress on squeaky metal springs. I would bring a sleeping bag and sleep on the floor for greater comfort...

Excellent hotel for short stay in Rome. Used to be a monastery but feels like a palace. Simple rooms but spotlessly clean. Air con worked well. Very friendly and helpfully staff, shout out to Brian and Steve. Breakfast was simple but adequate and filling. Lovely views from the breakfast terrace. Good transport links to central areas and station. Restaurants and shops close by. .

We had a great stay here, my 1st time and the 5th for my wife, great staff, nice clean rooms, a wonderful, massively architecturally stunning building, the lift is a real help, it was broken on our arrival so a big climb to our room on the 2nd floor, it was soon fixed, thank goodness so, would we go back, every time. Thank you to ALL the staff that made our stay perfect. Oh yes, a brilliant powerful shower too.😍

Great place if you are into monastery setting. Staff welcoming and cordial.
They were kind enough to switched us from an small/dark upstairs room to a friendly, bigger room in the center of the hotel. I really appreciated that.
Continental breakfast is included.
Not much to do near by so we had to go to another part of town almost every day.
The only thing I didn’t like was the type of tv show played in the breakfast area, considering this is a part of a church they should be playing different show/ music church/ Christ appropriate.

No hot water was available at the property, and the front desk did not offer a solution.
Additionally, the property does not have a pool.
