This hotel is like a great hidden secret. You wouldn't know it exists if you were just walking down the street. It is comfortable, clean, pleasant, and has everything. The location is great (near the Centro Storico) and the staff is wonderful.

Not a good experience

The hotel is actually a sort of annex with staffing only between 10am to 9-10pm. If anything is needed earlier in the morning or later at night, no one is available except cleaning personnel. During my stay internet connection was down and unavailable. This really messed up my work as I was staying in Rome for a conference and with absolute need of internet connection. The staff never apologized for the inconvenience and actually always acted with passive aggressive attitude when I was asking news about fixing of the Wi-Fi line. Furthermore, the bathroom was cold and the bathroom heating not controllable from the room. They told me they were going to turn on the bathroom heating in the morning for shower time and ...they actually never did. Worst of all, they wanted to charge me 6,00 Euro as city taxes on top of what was quoted by Expedia, even though in the Expedia quote was explicitly marked "comprising 2Euro/day for local taxes!!! I refused to pay the extra charge, but I had to do it in a angry manner. Definitely not a good option. Above all if you are in Rome for business and you need reliable services. I would not suggest this place!

Very happy

Service was great. Convenient location. The two fellas at reception, Luca and Matteo were very helpful with all our questions. Filled us in on a couple of local restaurants where the food is good... also informed us of the best bus lines to get around the city and see the best sites. The room was very clean upon arrival and during our stay. Receiving the key to the hotel and to our room made 24 hour access very useful. I'd recommend this hotel for anyone on a budget. Room isnt huge, but it is very clean and cosy and I was happy to stay here. Will DEFINITELY stay again if I return. Thank you for making my first Rome experience so special.

Comfortable stay for unluxurious travellers (by Stella & Dionysis)

English speaking staff, easy access to/from city centre, clean, comfortable rooms, breakfast served in the room was good (liked the coffee), airconditioned,fridge, charges as agreed, overall satisfied, value for money. (Do not go to the fast food pizza type of place accross the street, too expensive and low quality. Do try the restaurant accross the street from the hotel. )

No es un hotel es una casa de habitaciones Al llegar al "hotel"no hay recepción, hay que llamar el día anterior y tener suerte de que te cojan el teléfono. A nosotros el mismo día no nos cogieron el telèfono. Después de hablar con la tienda de al lado hablamos con el vecino que tambiėn tiene habitaciones y nos hizo el chelín el. Solo vimos un día al de "recepción" La habitación no tiene ventanas, solo un pequeño ventanuco a tres metros.

Esperienza negativa

Alcune ore prima del mio arrivo sono stata contattata dalla struttura,mi hanno informata che la mia stanza non era più disponibile per un problema idraulico ad un'altra stanza e quindi la mia sarebbe stata occupata da un altro ospite. Sono stata inviata in un hotel poco lontano,alle stesse condizioni di trattamento. Arrivata nel hotel che mi avevano assegnato,mi é stata data una stanza singola e successivamente una doppia (con letto ad una piazza e mezza),quando io avevo prenotato una matrimoniale per entrambe le sere di soggiorno. Non ho idea di come sia la Locanda, ma sicuramente non torneró mai più nel hotel che mi hanno affibbiato...una struttura vecchia,poco pulita,scomoda e disorganizzata.Avevo prenotato una stanza vista cittá e con colazione in stanza alla Locanda del Fante e mi sono ritrovata in una stanza con un letto piccolo,vista cantiere,con gli scuri rotti,la doccia che perdeva acqua ovunque e con una sala per la colazione in cui non c'era posto per tutti gli ospiti(6 tavolini da due e circa 15 stanze),c'erano persone in piedi che aspettavano finisse qualcuno per potersi sedere.Un Week end da dimenticare.

guardando la storia fuori dalla finestra

Roma l'eterna è sempre una sorpresa: puoi tornarci all'infinito e all'infinito riuscirà a stupirti. L'hotel è in una posizione strategica, in un area tranquilla, ben servita a due passi dal cuore della città, in una antica casa nobiliare, coniuga praticità al confort. Una chicca la colazione in camera guardando fuori dalla finestra la storia

Impreparati alla sistemazione trovata perché si pensava ad un hotel. La struttura è molto piccola e se da un lato può dare qualche svantaggio, l'altra faccia della medaglia è il sorprendente contatto umano che si ha con chi ti riceve e ti mette a proprio agio. La posizione è strategica per varie ragioni: non è inserita nel caos del centro città che però è facilmente raggiungibile con tantissime linee del servizio pubblico e una stazione taxi a 50 m. Nel complesso buono. Ci tornerei volentieri.

Hermoso pero alejado

El hotel es realmente muy lindo, te sirven el desayuno en la habitacion, es muy limpio y el personal es muy calido. Lo unico que no queda cercano a los lugares de interes y Roma no tiene una gran conexion de metros como otras ciudades, por lo que se debe caminar bastante. No lo recomiendo para parejas de gente mayor pero si son jovenes y les gusta caminar es muy lindo y a buen precio por el lujo que tiene
