Good stay, convenient
The hotel is conveniently located near the main Roma Termini station. It’s walking distance to many sights. Staff was approachable, and the paid buffet breakfast was sufficient.

The water at the shower was not warm. Upon speaking to the front desk, he mentioned that is the state of water in the capital of Italy.
Its was strange. For the last day we got reasonably warm water.

Check-in was slow, but after that we couldn't have been happier. The large quad room put a wall between us and the kids, and everything in the room was in good repair. The breakfast was good (especially by American standards), and when we had to leave for the train station on our check-out day, they provided us with a prepared to-go-bag.
