The room itself was nice. First room we were given was hot and would not cool down. So they did move us to a new room which was considerably cooler. The cleaning staff was all wonderful. The same goes for the bell hops. They were exceptional. And the rooms were very very clean. The downside here is the breakfast. It’s is not great. It is not even good. You can make a meal of it. But none of it is good. It’s ok at best. The coffee machine is TERRIBLE!!! Tried several different types to make something that was ok. So instead we started to walk to a cafe down the street and pay.

Great hotel and very friendly staff. Close to the main train station so it’s very convenient for traveling. I would say it’s far from some of the main sights in Rome but if you want to stay close to the main station I would highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed at The Independent for our first two nights in Rome and absolutely loved it. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean. The location couldn’t be better—just a five-minute walk to Termini Station—and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, and the service was truly top-notch. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The only downside was that the gym was under construction during our visit. On the bright side, it encouraged me to go for a run outside (tip: go early, as it gets hot quickly!). We loved our stay so much that we ended up booking The Independent again for the last night of our trip before flying home. Highly recommend!

This is in no way a 4 star property as represented. A major disappointment all around-from location, to no amenities, to rude staff (and seriously understaffed), to lackluster AC. It’s a definite skip. Also refused to cancel my 5th night when I had to return home for a family emergency.

A little underwhelming

The images posted make the place out to be much more luxurious than it was. While extremely close to the train station, which was a huge bonus for us, we were a bit underwhelmed with the property. And we were extremely disappointed with the chicken Caesar salad: the chicken was a breaded cutlet of pressed “chicken”. Certainly not something we have ever had at any restaurant…especially for the price.
