In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Staff who make the stay — Guests repeatedly mention friendly, helpful and professional staff, and the Staff score of 9.0 is the hotel's highest rating category.
- A location made for sightseeing — The Borghese Gallery and Museum is a seven-minute walk away, and guests note that Termini station, several bus stops and many main attractions are all within walking distance.
- Clean and well-equipped rooms — Rooms come with air conditioning, heating, mini-bars, tea and coffee facilities and flat-screen TVs, and several have balconies or city views. The Rooms category scores 8.7, the second-highest rating.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- A tight check-in window — Check-in runs from 13:00 to 19:00 and check-out is by 10:00, so it doesn't suit very early or very late arrivals without prior planning.
- Rooms can be compact — One guest described the rooms as small but clean, with surprisingly spacious bathrooms. The General rating of 8.1 is also the hotel's lowest category, suggesting the overall package feels a little more basic than the room and staff scores.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the place: the hotel's policy is no pets.
