Pros:

Camera mare,curatenie zilnic (atentie prosoapele se schimba doar daca le lasati jos pe podea,noi nu am stiut si nu intelegeam de ce nu se schimba si prosoapele),personal amabil,mic dejun sarac rau cu cateva produse dulci,dar citisem asta.Locatia este intr o zona foarte linistita,terasa de deasupra hotelului este grozava.Cabina de dus inconfortabila,usile se deschid nu foarte mult si chiar daca nu sunt o persoana grasa intram in dunga ca sa am loc.Daca asi reveni in Roma ,sincer m as caza din nou aici.Daca doriti sa mergeti cu mijloacele de transport cumparati de la tabacherie bilete BIT cu 1,5 euro care sunt valabile 100 min pe metrou,tramvai si autobuz.

Bon rapport qualité prix
Pros:

Très bon emplacement. Le personnel est très agréable, souriant, disponible.
Un grand merci aux hôtes d'accueil notamment.
Petit détail mais les capouccinos était tjrs bien réalisés (avec des cœurs, dauphins...)
Propre, rien à redire.
A proximité du Colysé (20 min à pied).

Cons:

Un peu bruyant, on entendait les personnes dans le couloir.
Le matelas a ressort n'est pas assez confortable pour nous, mais cela reste personnel.

Ein herzlicher Empfang, sehr freundliches Personal, ein schönes Zimmer und ein besonders zuvorkommender Service – inklus
Pros:

Ein wirklich super Empfang – man fühlt sich vom ersten Moment an willkommen. Das sehr nette Personal überzeugt mit echter Herzlichkeit und Professionalität. Mein schönes Zimmer war sauber, gemütlich und perfekt vorbereitet. Besonders hervorzuheben: Die Mitarbeitenden waren äußerst zuvorkommend bei einem Extrawunsch und organisierten spontan ein Taxi zum Flughafen. Rundum ein toller Aufenthalt, den ich gerne weiterempfehle.

Cons:

Alles war zu unserer Zufriedenheit
