Really good Location and Service

major attraction helpful staff

The hotel is located close to major attractions. Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain are within walking distance. The staff was helpful (Alex was especially amazing). Breakfast was plentiful and I looked forward to the cappuccinos. Our room was a good size.

The room I had faced an inner courtyard. It was dark and a bit depressing. The furniture placement was a bit awkward.

An adequate stay, but improvements needed

temperature control limited breakfast

I experienced issues with the room's temperature control. It was difficult to regulate. the in-room safe malfunctioned . Requiring maintenance intervention. The staff addressed it promptly, though the inconvenience was disruptive. The breakfast buffet lacked variety, it offered few options for those with dietary restrictions. I also noted the absence of readily available information regarding local transportation.
