We chose this property for its proximity to P. Mentana. We’re in our 70’s.
The good: working elevator, good locks on doors, access to restaurants.
Could be better, not all on the owner:
1. The sink trap leaked a bit on the floor, the owner got a plumber right away.
2. The Expedia property website stated that it had laundry, but the owner said that the washer/dryer were in the other building and accessible for a payment of 10 euro. We had assumed it was free to use, in our building.
3. The Expedia website also mentioned kitchen facilities, which we found was a shared kitchen with 3 other rooms. We just used the coffee maker.
4. We took a taxi from SMN to the property, cost about 13euro. When trying to return to SMN, we called Taxi4242 but couldn’t get through, downloaded their app, couldn’t make it work, walked to P. Santa Croce but no taxi would stop, so we walked all the way to SMN with 4 bags.
5. The power went out about 1:30am, we worried we’d have to walk down 4 flights (it came back on in 30 min). Next time we’d probably stay in a property with a 24/7 front desk.
6. The Expedia website states that the city room tax is 4.50euro per person per day, but learned that the city recently increased it to 7 euro per person per day.
7. Prior to arriving the owner stated that she was available until 6pm to check us in, and we’d have to pay additional euros if we were late. This is on the Expedia website, perhaps put it in the main property section.
