Fine for a short stay before heading to the next destination. Close to attractions and food
Pros:

Location is near multiple attractions and made it easy to do some last minute exploration before returning to the airport. Front desk was very responsive and arranged an airport shuttle in the morning.

Cons:

Adjacent rooms were very noisy. Could hear phone conversations and chatting. The bathroom was dirty, especially the shower.

Fantastisk liten pärla med perfekt läge!
Pros:

Ett fantastiskt litet hotel som var fräscht och stilfullt renoverat. Personalen var oerhört trevliga och tillmötesgående. Perfekt läge med närhet till det mesta. Härlig frukost med många olika alternativ. Nybakat bröd, barista, och färsk frukt. Takterrassen var superfin och erbjöd bar och smårätter.
Kan varmt rekommendera!

Cons:

Priserna i baren på takterrassen var lite höga med tanke på priserna i närheten av hotellet.
Saknade ett gym.

Super Hotel für Städtetrip
Pros:

Super zentrale, schöne Unterkunft. Zimmer sind relativ klein, aber das ist ja vorher bekannt und in großen Städten bei der Lage wahrscheinlich normal. Das Personal war super nett und die Rooftopbar ist klasse! Frühstück auch sehr gut, auch wenn uns ein bisschen mehr Abwechslung gefallen hätte. Das ist aber meckern auf sehr hohem Niveau und das Essen ist sehr lecker.

Cons:

Schon relativ teuer, allerdings ist das einfach der Lage geschuldet

very good hotel, delicious breakfast and friendly staff, great location
Pros:

Great location, very good breakfast, nice and helpful staff

Cons:

My room was quite small and also the view from the window was on a wall, still I understand that is what you get for the price which was appx 200 Euro per night.

Top notch experience
Pros:

My new go-to Rome hotel. Comfortable, clean, ideal location, great breakfast and the best service. With two rooms for my friend group, we stayed in both the annex across the street and main hotel with equally good experiences. You’re right next to the bakery and can skip the line by buying when they open (and fyi the hotel gets a bread and croissant delivery for the breakfast service)
Most of all, it’s the service that sets the apart. Leonardo (and the overall team) was such a help when our return flight was canceled and we needed to come back for one more night. He managed to get us the same rooms and arrange a taxi for the next day and set a dinner reservation, he made it seamless in what was a stressful moment after the airport. Also (at least for the annex) our room was quiet when the window was closed, even when it’s a crowd on the street.

Worth the price many times over for the service location and experience.
