Alessandro was a wonderful host, really helpful and accommodating. The room was spanking clean, in a really beautiful building. Everything in it was very new. There was also breakfast included, which was a nice surprise. The only downside was the noisy Labicana street outside (a major thoroughfare), despite the double glazing windows. Still, it shouldn't be a problem for people who are not too neurotic about noise like me.
It was an optimal choice for the conference I had to attend at Brancaccio Theatre, and within walking distance from Colosseo.
