Basic but charming!
Rooms are small and pretty basic, set in blocks at the rear of the hotel, but the breakfasts are excellent and the evening meal good without going overboard. Good location for exploring the sights of Rome.Buy a combined bus and metro ticket for 2,3, or 4 days at the bar, get the bus from out side the hotel to the Cornelia metro station and away you go. It's very easy to navigate around Rome via the metro. Taxis back to the airport are a set rate of 35 euros when it's time to leave.

First impressions were good. The buildings are modern, and the front desk helpful. They weren't ready for us to check in, so our bags were locked in a safe area giving us time to explore.
The rooms are small, but we weren't wanting a palace. We didn't come to Rome for the hotel after all. The bathroom was generally nice, clean, but a small shower. There are safe's in the cupboards but instructions on how to use them seem to be in some rooms and not others.
One of our rooms was very clear and tidy, however our other room had some marks on the walls, and a bit of blood on the sheet. I know, it sounds horrible already! But, a quick visit to the front desk got the problem so...Read more

Great Location
This hotel forces you to be a Roman, you get to take the subway, walk the streets, and best of all two stops from Cipro.. and 5 stops to spagna! great breakfast, and cozy grounds.. hotel staff was cute and helpful...
