We picked this hotel for a family trip. We wanted something that was close to everything and had an elevator. Traveling with my mom the elevator was a mist. The hotel was great, staff was friendly, rooms were comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good with some variety. Location was great. Walking distance to Rome termini and The Colosseum. Would definitely stay here again.
