Super Hotel in einer einwandfreien Lage
Pros:

Extrem freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, alles sauber, toll eingerichtete Zimmer und eine top Lage mit ca. 5 Gehminuten zum Petersplatz.

Cons:

Einziger Kritikpunkt ist, dass die Zimmer sehr hellhörig sind. Allerdings liegen auch Ohrenstöpsel im Zimmer, wenn es einen zu sehr stört. Für uns war es kein Problem, da das Hotel eh klein ist und dadurch relativ wenig Lärm entsteht.
Das Frühstück war zwar gut, aber klein, hatte jedoch alle elementaren Sachen. Kleiner Verbesserunsvorschlag wäre hier vielleicht noch hin und wieder etwas auszutauschen, bspw andere Kuchen. Wenn man wie wir bspw 5 Nächte da ist dann isst man sonst zwangsläufig jeden Tag das selbe.

Das ist aber alles meckern auf hohem Niveau, das sind nur die Gründe, weshalb wir einen Punkt abziehen und 9/10 geben. Wir würden jederzeit gerne wieder kommen! :)

Recomendavel.
Pros:

O funcionários são excelentes. A limpeza e roupas de cama e banho de boa qualidade. Bairro residencial, muito proximo ao Vaticano e estação de trem. Restaurantes locais a curta distancia.

Cons:

As janelas do meu quarto eram muito altas, basculadas, então fica tudo muito sem contato com o exterior, embora mantenha boa luminosidade e circulação de ar.
