Easy to get around location.
Only there for a few days. perfect location for getting around to see the sites. As far as hotel. Bed was comfortable, pillows hard & flat, for my liking. very small space(expected), no room amenities except hair dryer. If you want kleenex & wash cloth pack your own. only there to sleep.unfortunately our room was on level one street side. Garbage pick up was loud 3-3:30 am each morning. room was clean. Good price for room, compared to most for the area. Staff for check in very nice and had good advice for tourists.

The rooms were extremely small, there was no kettle to make a hot drink, there was no bar fridge and the staff were not overly friendly. We had to pay 5 euros a day for a key for the safety deposit box, when we’re obtained the key we assumed it was 5 euros for the duration of our stay, but no it was each day. The city tax had to be paid upfront in cash when you signed in. It had increased by 2 euros per person per day. Only good thing, it was walking distance to the train.

Nice and friendly staff and great location. But that is all. Furniture very used and the worst bed I ever had. You can hear everything including flushing toilet from the other room. This hotel should be on half price of what they asked and would need to invest some money.

Disappointing and not good value for money.
The room is as it looks in the photos , not very well lit at all, the bulbs aren’t bright. I had no hot water for two out of four days , you have to wait a while to get it and sometimes it just didn’t work. It is a good location, but their are very few amenities , you have to pay for wifi , can’t eat or drink in the rooms.. there’s just loads of little things that make the stay unenjoyable. It’s not good value for money, my friends stayed in a stunning modern hotel 1 minute away for just 20 euros more. Due to the lack of amenities, I wouldn’t recommend the hotel to anyone that plans on spending more than one night.

Dear Madame, th elight bulb need a couple o minutes to become bright as they are low carb consuming, the hot water was plenty 3000 liters on the top roof, just needed to wait as well a couple minutes if it was not there in a second. Wifi you where not charged for, since it is not included it is only a little extra. 5 eu two days. We are a traditional roman hotel 50 years experience, we are sorry you did not enjoy the flair.

There were many lists posted of things you could not do, for example no eating or drinking in the rooms. No loud talking or loins noises. Walls were paper thin, room next door had a party going on past midnight then TV was so loud, then more loud people in the corridor. Hotel staff did nothing about it, night was horrible there ……never again

Dear Sir. We are sorry your one night stay was on Saturday night of Carnival. Maybe if you would have phoned us at reception we could have asked for guests to be more respectful for silence. It would have been a pleasure to help you, it would have surely been better just by dialling 9 on the room phone. All our staff speaks good english. It was a pity you did not even bother saying anything during departure, where your wife thanked us for the nice stay. The hotel rules have a function in order to make sure the place stays nice and clean. Our rooms do not have a eating facility inside so we please ask our guests not to eat in the rooms for sanitary reasons.We have a our dining room for eating if requested. Healthy and Responsible drinking is encouraged instead. We have a sign saying not to eat ice cream or pizza inside the lobby or rooms in order to preserve our furniture from being stained and for guest to be able to enjoy a nice and clean atmosphere. We have a sign encouraging to leave your bags and trolleys in luggage area and not in any corner of the sitting area. This prevents from loud (luggage moving) noises and disorder spread in our relaxing area. We also invite our guest to not leave their belonging unattended during breakfast time in dining room while moving around to get their food and drinks, kindly suggesting to leave purses and bags in the room during this time. I hope you can understand our point of view and our disposability in order to let our guests have a great time when in Rome.

Nice hotel, friendly staff, clean, good breakfast and sitting area. Should have checked well confirmation email regarding size of room and bed. Also email says WiFi but does not specify if it’s free. Apparently the heating was turned off at some point during the last night. It is also turned on at 5 PM which was not a big problem during my stay because of the outside temperature.

Great for a cheap city break!
The staff are very friendly and helpful and the hotel was very clean. Good location, we managed to walk everywhere from the hotel and very close to the train station/metro/bus links etc. The room I booked was small and basic (standard single) - but for a city break where I spent little time there it was perfect - and for the price I paid was great. Breakfast not great - however there are many small cafes in the area, and it very much depends on your own personal preference. However considering it was one of the cheaper hotels I found I was impressed by the standard and cleanliness and gave us more money to spend on Rome - which can be expensive!

The hotel was clean and staff were friendly. However the rooms were quite dark and un-inviting. Tea/coffee making facilities would be good as would a bit more variety at breakfast. However, overall a good hotel in an ideal location for exploring Rome.

Good price but some problems
It was a good hotel to stay in. However, the walls are really thin so you can hear everything, besides, even if they clean the room every day (you have to leave the room), we had some allergic problems with dust that we think, they should take care about. The breakfast was ok. Overall, for a 3 stars hotel, it's a good place to stay if you want to be in downtown.

Great location, very central to all main sightseeing spots. Metro is so close and walking distance to Lots of restaurants. Hotel is dated and drabby and everything is brown it’s very depressing. It’s elevator is the smallest I’ve ever seen and my husband got stuck in it. Breakfast was aweful, it was just bread and hot milk. When I say paper thin walls I literally mean it. You hear everything. Moving luggage, chairs, walking around, ppl opening their room doors, etc. front desk teller was so nice and helpful but don’t let this be your vacation hotel, Rome has many happier hotels.

We enjoyed our 4 nites with Hotel Corona. It was in a very safe and quiet area and within walking distance to main attractions. Our room was facing the back and the only thing we heard were the seagulls in the morning about 5:30. Nice to wake up to. Would recommend taking hop on/off bus in the summer heat or take train/bus to attractions. We were only about an 8 min walk to Termini train station where you can get all transportation. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Wifi was extra but had no problem with it. The breakfast was enough to get you going in the morning. The restaurant next door was fantastic. Went for dinner at 9pm and at 10pm it started to get really busy. We booked our last nite in Rome with this hotel and will be gone 9 days travelling before returning. They let us leave our large piece of luggage that we didn’t need until we fly to Portugal. Highly recommend

Great location, poor room quality
We chose this hotel because of its location to sites and the train station. It's a quick walk to the Coliseum or the metro/bus. The rooms were not very comfortable, the pillows were flat and the room smelled very musty to where most of my family became congested during our stay. The staff was nice but their procedures required that they receive cash for all transactions such as collecting city taxes or ordering taxis, so be sure to have some cash with you when you book.

We liked it. There is a carrefour express across the street. So getting little things is a snap. They don’t want you to eat in the rooms but nobody cared that we had food and supplies on our dresser. You are a 20 minute walk to Pantheon, Trevi fountain, Spanish steps and Coleseum. Honestly, map it yourself. It’s a brilliant location.

my room window opened out to a “garden terrace”at ground level where ppl were often smoking. i couldn’t have my window open at all. the air conditioning barely worked. there were numerous power outages, and the internet (which i had to pay extra for) was constantly cutting out. my tv would just plain stop working sometimes.. there was no “do not disturb” sign, so it was impossible not to wake woken up by housekeeping... really not much good to say.... good location i guess.

No wifi, very rude staff.
I really don't recommend this place. First they charge you for wifi, but there is NO reception in the rooms, but when you ask the staff they just simply say "we don't guarantee reception in our rooms, you should come downstairs to receive service!" Plus, the staff at the reception desk are very rude. I have been in Rome several times so far, but I'd never seen such behavior!

Valued Guest , we are very unpleased by your negative review. I must although underline our staff is always very polite and helping: perhaps giving a different answer from what you expect turns us into unpolite? For future guests at the moment we are investing many resources to be able to guarantee wifi connection also in the rooms . This goal is very close and soon it will be reality, already 80% of the rooms are covered by a strong signal. By adding in notes during booking we can provide a room with wifi connection. By the end of August 2018 we will have also extra fast internet optical fiber (160 mega) Best Regards,

If you want a simple, basic hotel in central Rome this is the place. The rooms are small and a bit tight if traveling with another(s). It’s near the train station, good restaurants and the popular attractions. Also, with your stay, the hotel offers a typical, authentic Italian breakfast which we JUST loved!

Response from Andrea on 17 Apr 2018
Dear Guest , we are sorry for your bad experience. You reserved an Economy single room that is exactly the one in the picture, our policy to exclude some services to have a big advantage on the price paid also considering the size of the room and the central location. This is why some services like wifi are not included. We have personally checked the tv, the pillow and the bed spread and did not encounter the problems you have written in your review. The kettle and fridge are not services listed in the room at the moment when you confirmed your reservation. Regarding buffet breakfast variety included in room rate: multiple types of bread whole/white weat (toaster), butter, various marmalades, different types of cereals hot/cold milk, tea, coffee, two different types of fruit juice, different types of typical Italian pastry cakes and tarts , yogurt, fresh fruit , cutt and spreadable cheeses, ham, mortadella, salami, water, cappucino or espresso served at request. Regarding the heating once the temperature gains 20 degrees the heating is not turned on automatically. Many aspects of your trip could have been better is you would have refered the the front desk your problems , we would have been ready to help. Regards
