Excellent hotel that is super close to the Terminii station in Rome.
We arrived by the Leonardo Express train from the FCO airport and was in Terminii in 30 minutes.
The walk to the hotel was 5 minutes basically across the street from the station and down a narrow, dark, seedy road.
When our lousy T Mobile phone GPS was slow at 2G speed, we could not locate the hotel and ended up calling the hotel to get better landmarks which the receptionist spoke perfect English!
The location of the hotel is among other hotels but this one was better condition compared to the others next door.
Service was excellent, we were greeted by Doreen who welcomed us and showed us everything including a bellboy to take our luggage upstairs.
I wish I had brought some small Euro bills or coins for the bellboy but could not tip him as I only had big Euro bills....
Stayed 3 days and as other fellow Yelpers said about the complimentary beverages, it was true - all beverages were refilled the next day at no cost!
Everyday, I loved the sparkling water, Fanta orange soda which has 21% real OJ and the real 100% orange juice bottles!
Breakfast was excellent - great choice of hot, cold, cereals, breads, meats, veggies, and my favorite prosciutto with melon!
They have super fresh squeezed OJ which they squeeze using a machine that cuts the orange and then juices it. They use both regular and blood oranges which makes a very visually stimulating juice product.
The staff was amazing - very polite, professional and super attentive!
I would definitely return to this Rome hotel as it was very convenient to make quick connections to the airport, metro, and buses.
Try their small bar out - they have lots of different alcohol - I got to have real Italian Grappa which is a digestive liquor that is strong but great for digestion after eating a huge meal!
For 5 Euro per drink - that's a bargain!
And I could not leave a tip to the bartender because I did not have small Euros in hand and he could not break the 50 Euro notes...
For a rate of 67 Euros per night ( special winter rate) - it was an excellent value!
I left 20 Euros to the housekeeping staff because they took care of the room so well for 3 nights we were there.
Next time, break the large Euro bills into 5, 2, 1 Euros so that you can tip the bellboy and bar manager. read more
