Bella struttura che ritornerò. Zona tranquilla a pochi passi da Piazza del Popolo
Pros:

Posizione, pulizia camere colazione varia

Cons:

Necessitano piccole manutenzioni (rubinetto che gocciola, moquette bella ma per gli allergici agli acari è un supplizio)

Stucchi e moquette, marmi è un po’ di pretenziosità ma … ai turisti stranieri piace così …
Pros:

Posizione perfetta per essere vicini alla metro e al centro.

Cons:

Tutto ok. Attenzione se si hanno problemi di mobilità a segnalarlo perché ci sono molti gradini interni, cambio ascensore tra primo e secondo piano con ascensore molto piccolo.
