Awfful Everything (except location)
Smelly, carpets have never been cleaned. Lots of staff, only problem is they are rude and useless! Lots of rude/useless staff just means lots of arrogant, useless bodies in your way! Breakfast buffet is lame warm cheese and hard bead, no fresh fruit! Room carpet has never been cleaned since the 70's! It's cheap carpet, you'd think they could replace it! So expensive, fo nothing!

Tired and tatty
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Totally over priced for a stay in a grubby/sparse room where the furnishings were old and falling apart. The 'triple' room was in dire need of decoration and was so sparse it was untrue with just one rickety wooden chair and one picture on the wall. A battered old air conditioning unit barely hid some filthy pipes and one of the skirting boards actually fell off the wall while we were staying there. The mirror was dirty and the safe so small you could just about lock your passport in it. Breakfast was poor with disgusting coffee and plastic cutlery. The hallway carpets were all tattered and marked and though some staff were helpful, others ignored you. We won't be staying there again.

Completely Unacceptable
This hotel was absolutely horrible. I travel constantly and this was by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The front deskman is incredibly rude and unwilling to help in any way. They "lost" our reservation for a triple room, and made my party split into 2 rooms for 100 euro a night more than the origional reservation. We arrived very late and did not have time to find another hotel. They obviously took advantage of our situation. The rooms are dirty, smelly and in desperate need of repair. The breakfast was a complete joke. This hotel was extremely overpriced and was the only horrible part of our entire trip in Europe. Do not even think about staying here. I can't say enough here to convey how bad it was.

Don't Stay Here
This is the worst place you could stay. We booked a room for two people when we arrived they told us we were in a room with a single bed. The rooms where dark and dingy. The walls were paper thin and very rude service. We ended up staying elsewhere in Rome for the rest of our stay.
