My intention is never to give a bad review, but this hotel is quite confusing. First, if you ever find it, you will realize that the front desk is located in the building next door, that's if you are staying on the 3rd floor. So you have to walk up steps to the front desk to check in, then go back down the steps and go next door to the other building. Good news is that the other building has an elevator that holds approximately 4 people, but that's 4 people without luggage. Coming from the USA it was quite confusing as to why they would need our passports at check in to enter all of our information into the computer system, but I then came to realize that this is something that the Italians use for ID. While in the US we use any drivers license. While we stayed out quite late, it isn't safe around this area, as we were told by the owner of an ice cream parlor about 5 blocks away. He suggested that we walk away from the hotel and take the metro to go back, instead of walking. It would be safer to have and early dinner and retire for the night and make early moves in the morning since the wholesalers in the area are open quite early. All in all, we still enjoyed Rome, but if we were given the truth about this hotel and location, we would not have stayed there.
