Athena Hotel

I stayed here for a work trip, so didn't have to pay for it myself thankfully. Probably wouldn't book it if I had a choice.

Pros:

- Good location. Quite close to the centre but far enough out that it's not as chaotic, and the uni area it's in is pretty nice. Some good restaurants etc around. Metro isn't too far away.
- Staff were nice enough and helped where they could.
- Room was fairly big.

Cons:

- Quite grimy. Not exactly unclean, but dated. A fair bit of damage to bed headboard etc, and the shower was a bit mouldy. Plug sockets not properly installed so you could see the wiring, which wasn't great. Nothing too bad, but could do with a refresh.
- Staff when I was there spoke very little English. Fair enough, it's Italy, but you'd expect the person at the desk to be able to communicate in English reasonably well given the international clientele.
- Opposite student bars which can be very loud on an evening, which can be an issue if you're in a room overlooking the road.
- Walls are quite thin.

All in all fine for a solo adult on a business trip - it's a decent bed and the air conditioning worked fine. Wouldn't recommend for a holiday unless you're using it purely to sleep in and aren't spending any time in the room. Certainly not somewhere to stay if you're looking for anything remotely romantic, or if you're travelling with kids.

Discreta

Great place to stay if you want a great value! Very friendly staff and fresh towels provided daily. Quiet area since it's away from the busy attractions, but still a convenient location being near several bus stops.

Loved, loved, loved this place. It felt like family and staff took care of us like family. Nice older building, wonderful breakfasts on the balcony. Walk in one direction from hotel it’s messy, walk any other direction and it’s nice - plenty of dining options as well as a farmers market and laundry near by. Out of a score from 1-10, I give the Athena Hotel and staff a 20❤️❤️

Good hotel
We slept for 2 night so we had a good time with my friends in staying here it was so close to train station.
Very nice people working here and they're so friendly.
The room is have a good space and adequate for moving inside.
.
Furniture was good
Nice view for street to see people walking around

Very good hotel. I stay here with my friends for holidays. I like the room, very clean and new bed, the silence and the wi fi. We are between bologna and policlinico station. From here in 10 minutes you can arrive in colosseo by metro b. The hotel is near termini station and also near tiburtina Station. Very good experience!

good

Very dirty place, the shower was moldy, rooms not soundproof, really small and claustrophobic. Unpleasant smell everywhere. Never coming back

La habitación carece de lo más indispensable, agua caliente pésimo , las camas son unas cunas , la regadera en pésimas condiciones
ES EL PEOR HOTEL QUE ME HA TOCADO EN 25 Años de estar visjando

L'hôtel est bien en lui-même, toujours quelqu'un à la réception. Par contre, Expedia m'avait dit que je paierai 12 euros de taxe. Et l'hôtel m'en a demandé 18. Soyez cohérent, c'était énervant !

the hotel is on the outskirt of the main city, about 15 mins walk to the underground and then a short ride to the the main part of rome, it was only a short ride and paid 1.5 euros there and on way back, works the same way as london, swipe card for each way of destination easy peesy.
the hotel is very basic, double room and bathroom which contains a shower and hairdryer, there is a tv which shows only italian channels but tbf was not in the room long enough to watch it. there is also a mini fridge in the room for you to fill up as desired .the bedroom was very dated and looked like it could of done with a good clean
there is an option to have breakfast for 5 euros per person, again very basic, croissants, jam, butter, cereal, yogurts, tea and coffee.
i personally wouldn't go here again as it was quite loud outside in the local bars and the first night we had to move rooms because of the noise from the young locals but the hotel staff were very helpful and moved us the following day to a room at the back of the hotel , all the staff were very helpful and polite.
i would however pay the extra for perhaps a 4 star next time.

Bad:
- Rooms are VERY small. Could barely move around.
- Walls are paper thin. If the receptionist coughed, we heard it. The whole floor is very small and the rooms are right next to reception/coffee area. So at 7 am, you can hear the coffee machine being cleaned.
- Beds are hard as rocks, really uncomfortable.

Good:
- Receptionist there all night, we checked in late.
- A few restaurants nearby to eat something
- Building has secure entrance with buzzer so feels safe
- Didn't see any bugs

Für die Klasse eine sehr gute Unterkunft. In den Morgenstunden ein wenig lauf, ansonsten aber alles oberhalb der Drei Sterne Erwartung. Zur U-Bahn sind es etwa 750m. Es gibt ein paar Restaurants in der Nähe, und Nahe der U-Bahn-Haltestelle einen kleinen Supermarkt. Es sind drei Stationen bis zu Termini (Hbf).

Ok

Ok

On our third night we were not allowed to use a dining room table to eat a sandwich. The employee told us that he did not authorize us and began to move our belongings from one place to another without our authorization in a rude manner.
Finally, we ate outside (balcony) with drizzle, cold, thunder and lightning.
Very unpleasant experience in this hotel with employees who logically do not know what it means to work in this industry.

Excelente servicio. Desayuno muy bueno . Recámaras amplias ideales para la familia ( éramos 2 adultos y 2 niños ). Tuvimos un inconveniente con la calefacción pero fue resuelta por el personal atentos

The staff were super friendly, for the price, it is what it is. Somewhere close to public transport so you can adventure out all day.

Good hotel

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The building was a little dated and you have to take a bus or subway to see stuff. The breakfast was not really substantial: just a roll and a few crackers with tea or coffee.
