Excellent Stay near the Colosseum!

helpful staffnice terraceexcellent companion
The staff was very helpful. They explained everything well at check-in. my room was better than expected. I even had a nice terrace during my return visit after a cruise. i was lucky to have dinners here too! faris was an excellent companion during dinner. He told stories about his adventures.
My single room felt a bit small. It could use some refurbishment. the bed was against the wall, and the wardrobe was quite old and short.

weak coffeelimited selection
The breakfast was included, but it was not a highlight. The coffee tasted weak, and the selection felt limited each morning. I also encountered an issue with the room temperature. It was difficult to regulate. The air conditioning seemed stuck on one setting and I could not adjust it myself. It. I expected a bit more control over the climate in the room, considering the price I paid.
