Pictures don't tell the story

Pictures look 1000% better than the actual experience. This is a single level hotel in the middle of an apartment complex. It is relatively close to city attractions so that was a plus - but really the only one. Also Hotels.com said the price you see is the price you pay - but that is not true since we had to pay extra taxes about $30.00 USD - local tax that the hotel wanted in cash. Next time I will do better research.

Amazing location to the Vatican. Don't take a ride and walk for less than 10 min straight to the Vatican! Convenient location with a small grocery store next door and most of the staff were helpful in answering questions and helping grab a ride.

Good location, comfy bed and a friendly staff!

Within walking distance to the Vatican, right on a bus line, with cold air-con, and a comfortable bed.. this hotel is a solid choice. Add in the friendliness of the staff, in particular Oliver, Valentino, and Ella, and we loved the experience. Thanks everyone!

I traveled to Amalfi coast with my 18 years old son. If you are traveling with younger ones may be you need to get more close to Amalfi. The staff are super nice, friendly and helpful. They helped us to book a beach club, bus tickets and … Our room was opening straight into the dining area which wasn’t nice. We could hear people eating breakfast in the morning. The view of our room and the balcony was absolutely beautiful. Breakfast was good. This location is about 10 minutes with car away from the center of Amalfi but there’s a bus stop close to the property. Is there so many restaurants and shops around this place? not really. Few restaurants around and one shop close by that we could get water.

Online photos of hotel exterior were completely deceiving.
Hotel is actually a small building situated in a courtyard surrounded by apartment balconies, many with laundry hanging - for days.   Some barking dogs, screaming neighbors.  Bars on some windows.

Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly from the minute we arrived till we left. Hotel was easily accessible from the train station, and walking to the Vatican took a few minutes. Hotel facilities were well maintained, and we appreciated having the air conditioner for warmer spring days. Beds were comfortable and housekeeping made sure that everything was clean and tidy each of the days we were there. Absolutely recommend if you're doing a religious visit to the Vatican, or just to Rome in general.
