8.1Verified guest“The rooms are fantastic: well-furnished with comfortable beds and a cosy feel. Private bathrooms with complimentary toiletries, flat-screen TVs, and fridges in every room. The marble flooring adds elegance, and the air conditioning was a lifesaver in Rome's summer heat. I had a wonderful stay.”
