Hotel and room was great. Only compliant was the smell that would come out of the toilet during the night. Love how close it is to train station and the different dining options around the hotel. Best of all the laundry service right across the street.

Nice central location to Termini. Everything is within reasonable walking distance of this location. Hotel was just OK though. Water pressure on the 5th floor was quite low, which made Shower more of a light rinse. Rooms are ok, but in need of some updating. Room was very quiet. A/C worked very good.

This hotel was in a convenient location to the train station. It was.close to groceries and dining. Breakfast at the hotel was good and convenient. This hotel had air conditioning which was nice in the summer. The only complaint is the room had mold on the ceiling in the bathroom.
