Awesome staff and place. Loved it!

The young woman at reception was Awesome! She took such great care of us and helped us so much. She even drove us to Metro station when she knew we were kind of confused on how to get around. We cannot express our gratitude enough. We would gladly stay with them again in a heart beat and if we return to the area we will.

Very nice small hotel.

This hotel had very spacious rooms and it was updated and nice. Everything worked great in the room, and it was very comfortable. It was just outside of Rome, which was nice and quiet but still convenient if you have a rental car like we did.

Far away from Central Rome

English speaking front desk personnel was a plus as well as metrobus tickets available at desk for 1.50 euros. Bus drivers not willing to help to find or be dropped off close to hotel location, end up walking back about two miles to get to hotel. Free Internet WIFI was intermittent at best. A/C not working properly.

Don't Book It

Firstly, the hotel is 14km away from central Rome and to even reach the Anagnina Metro station, you need to get a bus which is highly infrequent. If you want to look around Rome, Petra is definitely not ideal. Also, there is practically no civilisation in the surrounding area except for a McDonalds which is a 7 minute walk away. Thirdly, our hotel room was not even IN the hotel, it was a 10 minute walk away from the building in a separate apartment type thing which made everything a hassle. The service was wildly fluctuating with certain members being highly helpful and others being indifferent at best. The breakfast was not great and overall, we were not fans.

not close to city centre but had amenities we want

Rooms were clean. Staff were very nice. On-site restaurant was ok. Mall close by with grocery store. Had a large pool and a couple of pieces of gym equipment. Breakfast was good. You need to take bus and then subway into Rome city centre. Connections were very good. Took about 40 minutes for both.

Too far out of the city center

We had to get a cab from Rome as this hotel is not near the city. It's actually in a suburb called Romanina.The air conditioning was out of service and the staff was not forthcoming about it as we checked in nor about how to turn and keep the lights on in the room. Breakfast was pretty good for Rome standards.

Nice Place for a Rest

Stayed one night at June 7th, 2013. Good things were (1) clean room, (2) nice outdoor swimming pool, (3) secure private balcony (room has a shutter in the window to access the private balcony). Bad things were (1) location. Almost impossible to reach by the public transportation.
