Location: About a 7-10 minute walk to the Colosseum. 3 minutes to a supermarket. 10 minute walk to the nearest metro stop. 5 minute walk to a decent take out place if you're not looking to go too far at night.
The room: Very nice private room with ensuite bathroom. The room was spacious, clean, and came with all described amenities including multiple coat hangers and hooks, drawers, and a nice table to work/eat on. We received a tray full of snacks, instant coffee/ tea packets, and ceramic cups/espresso pods for the espresso machine in the kitchenette (score!!). Outside common fridge was free for use, and stocked with yogurts, milk, and juice every morning. Fresh bread and a variety of spreads were also available. There was a microwave, but no cookware or utensils.
Check-in/out process: Giampiero was very good with communication, and we were accommodated immediately upon our arrival (despite having arrived early at 10:30am instead of 12:30pm). Check-in was very smooth--just showed our documents, paid the city tax in cash, and the key was ours. For check-out, we were instructed to simply leave the keys on the table of the room.
OVERALL:
Pros: Pretty convenient location. Very spacious and comfortable room. Free access to espresso machine.
Cons: Street is kind of dark at night because it's more residential. Weird, scratchy blankets (not a problem though--the sheets do the trick).
Would definitely recommend!
