In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Exceptional staff and service — Guests consistently praise the front desk for going above and beyond, from restaurant tips to printing boarding passes.
  • Location near the Colosseum — Approximately 200 meters from the Colosseum and 150 meters from the metro, making it easy to explore ancient sites on foot.
  • Rooftop breakfast and views — Many guests highlight the breakfast on the terrace and the views of the Roman Forum, despite some note of growing trees.
  • New building rooms — The newer section offers modern, comfortable, and charming rooms that receive positive feedback.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small hotel with limited rooms — With only 13 rooms, the property may lack the facilities of larger hotels, and some guests note the overall smallness.
  • Old building rooms can disappoint — Rooms in the older section may have dated flooring, walls, and outdated air conditioning and safes.
  • Rooftop view partially obscured — The 'pines of Rome' have grown, reducing the once-fabulous view from the rooftop.
  • Check-in window ends at 22:00 — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 22:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
