Variety of hot/cold breakfast items. Coffee station convenient and 24 hours. Very quaint but clean, 15-20 min walk to Colosseum and Trevi, shopping and Spanish Steps. Away from the crowd but busy enough to feel safe, and a fantastic basilica view from the room. Just lovely. Would certainly return

Wonderful quiet boutique hotel on the fourth floor of a 6 storey historic residential building. Only 20 bedrooms makes it quite quaint. With the great staff and the morning breakfast included, it has more of a B&B feeling. Walkable to the main attractions (Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps) with many other piazzas, basilicas, museums in the area. Many street side restaurants in the area as well. Rooms were a little on the small side, but within expectations for the older building within historic Rome.

This hotel became our home away from home. Staff were so kind and helpful - always generous with their time and suggestions. Easy 15 minute walk to the Coliseum and many wonderful restaurants and a couple of grocery stores within a safe, short walk. Breakfast had anything you’d want including lovely pastries and fresh fruit. Truly a wonderful place. If we return to Rome, we will return to this place. Our home away from home.

Unfortunately, our stay was not very comfortable. The room had some issues with basic amenities—our lights flickered throughout the night, and the window wouldn’t stay closed despite several attempts. This made it difficult to get any rest. When we reached out to the hotel, the explanation given didn’t fully address the problems, which continued all night. While the location may be convenient, the experience left us disappointed. I would suggest looking into other options for a more restful stay.
