This is a great location for seeing Rome. It is literally one block from the main train station. The outside may make you think twice when you arrive(but most of Rome looks like that, the graffiti on those beautiful old buildings is out of control), however the inside is a hidden gem in the city. Very clean and updated, and slept our family of 8 perfectly. The endless hot water was great for a big family as well, and having the balcony was a nice touch. I would definitely stay here again!
