Great views and parking on site, but won’t return.
The hotel is a bit dated. It has great views, but it’s a bit over 10 minutes to town on a street with narrow sidewalks and you have to cross speeding traffic twice. The hotel restaurant isn’t open; they only serve buffet breakfast. The walls are thin and we could hear our neighbor coughing all night and his alarm ringing at odd hours.
We arrived at 1:30, but the staff told us to return after 2:00 for check in. I’ve never had a hotel not check for an available room.
The AC ran all night and could only manage to cool the room from 25.5 to 24. I had it set to 20. They tried to reset it once, but it didn’t work any better.
Ett fantastiskt hotell cirka 45 minuter ifrån centrala Rom. Vill man slippa hetsen i stan är detta ett perfekt hotell. Servicen och hotellet var 10/10. Lite äldre rum vilket var okej med tanke på att man vill ha den italiska känslan. Vi spenderade våra dagar i den närliggande byn och hängde vid hotellets pool som vi dessutom hade för oss själva varje dag. På kvällen tog vi taxi in till Rom för middag och sevärdheter. Vill man in till Rom varje kväll får man räkna med cirka 200 euro fram och tillbaka per dag. Så det blir en del. Men detta hotellet är ett självklart val för nästa gången vi reser till Rom.
“Very good location, just a few minutes from Termini. Everything was nice and clean. The only thing we didn’t enjoy was the chemical scent in the room, probably coming from the sheets or towels, but we weren’t sure about the source. We only stayed for just one night, though, so it wasn’t a big deal. :)
When we checked in late afternoon, our room was not ready and we had to return to the reception desk and request another. The pool had only one seating area which made it very inhospitable unless you were with the people using two of the three seating options. There were no towels provided. The restaurant was closed, but there was a very limited breakfast. Th location is beautiful and one would hope a bit more of a congenial atmosphere would make this hotel stellar. But one did not feel welcome as it sat in a gorgeous location but with somewhat taciturn staff.
Quaint location and very walkable. The views are spectacular from the hotel. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast could have been better. Would have loved for the scrambled eggs to be hot (they seemed to come straight from the refrigerator) and some more options, like yogurt. The air conditioning was working at full capacity but never got below 25 Celsius so it was a bit hot for sleeping.
