Hotel Details

Location

Centrally located 400 metres from Roma Termini station, giving direct metro, bus, and train access across Rome.
The property is positioned in a lively central area, just a 4-minute walk from Roma Termini Metro and Train Station, providing easy connections to all major attractions and Fiumicino Airport. The Coliseum is a 30-minute walk (3 km) and the Spanish Steps are also 3 km away. The surrounding streets are filled with numerous restaurants, pizzerias, a supermarket, and a gelateria, all within 0.5 km. The neighbourhood is busy and practical for city exploration on foot, but can be less suitable for those seeking a quiet residential area. Public transport is excellent: metro, buses, and trams are within a few minutes' walk, making car use unnecessary.

Accommodation

Classic-style, air-conditioned rooms with private bathroom, flat-screen TV, and free Wi-Fi. All rooms have an en suite bathroom.
Rooms are furnished in a classic style and include air conditioning (free), heating, a cooling fan, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and hairdryer. Each room also has a wardrobe, safe deposit box, tiled floor, and a private entrance in some units. The property is an adults-only bed and breakfast; no children or infants are accommodated. The single room accommodates one bed, while double/twin rooms can request an extra bed (subject to availability). The rooms themselves are described as basic and compact, with some areas showing signs of age-old furniture, stains, or occasional mould in bathrooms. Noise from the street-level bar below is a significant factor, especially in street-facing rooms, making it less suitable for light sleepers. Daily cleaning is provided, and bed linens and towels are changed regularly.

Dining

No restaurant on site; self-service tea, coffee, biscuits, and a shared fridge/microwave are available in the reception area.
The property does not have a restaurant or bar. A self-service station is provided in the small reception area, offering complimentary tea, coffee, biscuits, and sometimes packaged snacks. There is also a shared refrigerator and a microwave that guests can use. The area directly around the property (within 0.5 km) has a very high concentration of restaurants, pizzerias, a gelateria, and a supermarket (PAM), providing plenty of dining options. For those wanting a fuller meal without leaving the area, several affordable eateries are immediately outside. Breakfast is not officially served, but the availability of free coffee and tea in the morning partially compensates.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi throughout, luggage storage from 09:30, daily housekeeping, and key-only access. No parking or 24-hour reception.
Wi-Fi is free in all rooms and has a measured speed of 92.0 Mbps, suitable for remote work. Luggage storage is free and available from 09:30, allowing guests to drop bags before check-in or after check-out. Daily housekeeping is provided, including cleaning the room and changing towels and bed linens. Reception is open from 09:30; outside these hours, guests use a key system for entry. No parking is available on site. The property is fully non-smoking and has an adults-only policy. Security features include CCTV outside, key access, a security alarm, and smoke alarms. No shared kitchen or washing machine is available, but a small refrigerator and microwave are accessible in the reception area.
