My stay at this hotel was very comfortable. The room was small but just fine for one person, with a very nice bathroom. The entire property was very clean and quiet. Breakfast was fine, although I ended up only eating there once as the other days I was out early to try and see sites before they were too crowded. While it is not in the central part of historical Rome, it was a very pleasant walk to get to places such as the Colosseum. The staff was friendly and helpful, even though my Italian is extremely limited. Lots of great restaurants in the area, and because it was not a super touristic part of town they did not feel like tourist focused rip-offs, but more like a true Roman neighborhood. Bus stops right in front of the hotel and down the street, metro was a bit of a walk but the neighborhood feels very safe. While my next visit I might choose a centrally located hotel, I was very pleased with my stay at Hotel San Giovanni.
