Cleanliness
9
Multiple reviews explicitly praise cleanliness: 'Clean modern rooms', 'quartos limpos', '乾淨'. Overall consistently reported as very clean.
Service
8.7
Mostly positive front-desk interactions (helpful staff, retrieved a lost backpack, friendly service at breakfast), but there are several reports of confrontational billing practices which lower the score somewhat.
Location
9.5
Frequently praised central Monti location — 'we walked everywhere', 'excellent location', 'La situation géographique' — consistently a strong positive.
Room Quality
9.2
Rooms described as modern, recently renovated, comfortable beds and terraces. One report of an A/C not working on arrival but overall room quality is highly positive.
Amenities
9
Rooftop bar and renovated facilities are repeatedly mentioned as highlights; rooftop praised for drinks and atmosphere.
Value for Money
6.5
Several strong complaints about unexpected/hidden charges (extra €110, attempts to charge nearly €200 more, disputed city tax) lead to a notably lower value score.
Food and Beverage
8.3
Breakfast is praised in many reviews and specific staff praised for cappuccinos/hot chocolate, and rooftop bar is appreciated. Some guests requested more extensive breakfast and more gluten-free options.
Overall Experience
9.4
Overall stays are described as very positive and recommendable (secure, pleasant, great location, rooftop), though a minority report unpleasant billing interactions that temper the experience for those guests.

Pros:

I would highly recommend this hotel. The location in Monti was perfect. We walked everywhere for shopping and restaurants. The morning breakfast was great and the rooftop bar was a perfect end to a long day. Speaking of the rooftop bar - My husband accidently left his backpack on one of the chairs and the staff was kind enough to bring it to the front desk for us to retrieve. Our trip could have went in another direction if they were not this kind. My husbands passport and car keys were in his pack. We were feeling very lucky to stay in such a secure place. Thank you for the team at the hotel for making our stay so nice and safe. We will see you again.

Overall, great location and very convenient , very nice hotel especially interior rooms and design.
Pros:

Fantastic room, cleanliness and very well maintained. Best is breakfast, I forgot the name who's helping out during the breakfast, she's incredible in making very nice Cappucinno every morning and hot chocolate for us.

Cons:

Unknown charges at the end of our Stay, it could have been fair if you tell upfront on other charges, I paid additional 110 Euros with no clear explanation.

Lovely rooms, but dodgy and scam-y practices
Pros:

The hotel itself is amazing - lovely, modern rooms in a great location. Everything worked well, it had clearly been refurbished recently.

Cons:

Be careful, because they will jump a bunch of hidden charges on you. They tried to talk us into paying nearly 200€ extra despite our reservation telling us we only owe them 48€ for city tax (we paid already via booking). One was an 'optional' service tax which they add by default. Thankfully, we managed to talk them out of this. But that wasn't all! They also insisted that we owed them a higher city tax than what was stated in our reservation. They claimed it was due to changes since our booking, etc, etc. Even if a change had taken place, you'd think you'd notify your guests about the fact that their stay costs more suddenly and give them an option to cancel. They wouldn't let us go without this. Just highly unpleasant overall and leaves you feeling scammed.
