The hotel's location is fantastic, right next to Santa Maria Maggiore, with excellent cleanliness and a friendly staff. However, the dining experience was a bit mundane with limited breakfast options.

The hotel has a classic Italian style with comfortable rooms that could benefit from an update. The staff could be friendlier and more helpful, especially during check-in, but the service overall is good. The location is perfect for exploring the city, being close to the train station and many restaurants. The dining options are satisfactory, offering hearty meals, but could improve in quality. The facilities are adequate, but the rooms do not have safes.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfortable rooms with a need for updates and friendly service alongside a disappointing sewage smell in the bathroom. The location was convenient for exploring Rome, but there were some noise disturbances early in the morning.

The dining experience was fairly basic with limited selection, but the rooftop terrace dining with a view was a highlight. A more varied menu would have improved the overall dining experience.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the location was excellent near Rome Termini Station and Santa Maria Maggiore, the rooms suffered from noise and a musty smell. The staff's service was a hit-or-miss; some were very helpful like Roberta, but others struggled with English. The dining options were average, and the hotel seemed more like a 3-star than a 4-star.

The hotel is conveniently located near Rome Termini Station and directly opposite the Santa Maria Maggiore, offering easy access to explore the sites of Rome. The rooms, although small with limited seating, were clean, providing a cozy atmosphere. The service was a mix of kindness in the evening and some disappointing encounters with rude staff. The dining experience, while basic, offered ample selection for breakfast. The hotel facilities were satisfactory overall.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although clean and nice, showed signs of aging and would benefit from some restoration. The service was a bit of a letdown as we were informed of an overbooking and had to be moved to another hotel. The location, however, was perfect for exploring Rome and visiting all the key landmarks. The dining options were sufficient but not exceptional. Overall, the value for money was average.
