  Basic but fine

  11 Oct 2025

  I stayed here for a work trip, so didn't have to pay for it myself thankfully. Probably wouldn't book it if I had a choice. Pros:- Good location. Quite close to the centre but far enough out that it's not as chaotic, and the uni area it's in is pretty nice. Some good restaurants etc around. Metro isn't too far away.- Staff were nice enough and helped where they could.- Room was fairly big.Cons:- Quite grimy. Not exactly unclean, but dated. A fair bit of damage to bed headboard etc, and the shower was a bit mouldy. Plug sockets not properly installed so you could see the wiring, which wasn't great. Nothing too bad, but could do with a refresh.- Staff when I was there spoke very little English. Fair enough, it's Italy, but you'd expect the person at the desk to be able to communicate in English reasonably well given the international clientele.- Opposite student bars which can be very loud on an evening, which can be an issue if you're in a room overlooking the road.- Walls are quite thin.All in all fine for a solo adult on a business trip - it's a decent bed and the air conditioning worked fine. Wouldn't recommend for a holiday unless you're using it purely to sleep in and aren't spending any time in the room. Certainly not somewhere to stay if you're looking for anything remotely romantic, or if you're travelling with kids.

  Very good experience

  Very good hotel. I stay here with my friends for holidays. I like the room, very clean and new bed, the silence and the wi fi. We are between bologna and policlinico station. From here in 10 minutes you can arrive in colosseo by metro b. The hotel is near termini station and also near tiburtina Station. Very good experience!

  Very dirty

  Very dirty place, the shower was moldy, rooms not soundproof, really small and claustrophobic. Unpleasant smell everywhere. Never coming back

  you pay for what you get

  the hotel is on the outskirt of the main city, about 15 mins walk to the underground and then a short ride to the the main part of rome, it was only a short ride and paid 1.5 euros there and on way back, works the same way as london, swipe card for each way of destination easy peesy.the hotel is very basic, double room and bathroom which contains a shower and hairdryer, there is a tv which shows only italian channels but tbf was not in the room long enough to watch it. there is also a mini fridge in the room for you to fill up as desired .the bedroom was very dated and looked like it could of done with a good clean there is an option to have breakfast for 5 euros per person, again very basic, croissants, jam, butter, cereal, yogurts, tea and coffee. i personally wouldn't go here again as it was quite loud outside in the local bars and the first night we had to move rooms because of the noise from the young locals but the hotel staff were very helpful and moved us the following day to a room at the back of the hotel , all the staff were very helpful and polite.i would however pay the extra for perhaps a 4 star next time.
