Good location, nearby walking distance to public trans, close to main train terminal, lots of good restaurants nearby. I was able to walk to most sights and anything further...i still walked. Having said that there is tram and train stations well withing walking distance. Room was great for me, simple, lots of rooms and nice bathroom. Always a plus when there is a shower. The noise from train that people mentioned is there, but if you are like me after walking and seeing Rome on a hot summers day and you come home beat... its just background noise. If there is one complaint is the bed. Its comfortable and i loved the pillows but its really two twins put together as a queen. At nights it would just split apart and i would fall into gap of the twins. Funny at first but annoying. I got used to sleeping on one side but i honestly wished it was a true queen. Great place overall. I felt safe, comfortable around the area and for the price and location...i would come come back here again.
