It's on the 6th floor, and was a small room inside another room. Fine for just a place to sleep, but not the most convenient. Washroom was broken and leaking through the walls, and smelled of sulfur.

Dear Guest,We are very sad to read your review which we do not quite understand since our family rooms are very big. In regard of the shower, it was changed brand new exactly the day you arrived.There is no leakage neither any smell.Kind Regards,

Great hosts in a fabulous location a short walk to the Colosseum, the pastries at breakfast were amazing! The shower could do with being renovated, but I would stay again when I go back to Roma!

Quick stay in Rome
We were only there for a single night after our cruise. But we had a great experience there. We were leaving very early in the morning to go home and since we were going to miss breakfast they left us croissants, yogurt and juice in our room. Unfortunately, it was so early and we were walking to the train station, we were able to enjoy any of it. But we really appreciated the gesture. Everything was very clean and they helped us with directions to the Colosseum which is definitely within walking distance. Would recommend!

Very affordable and excellent place to stay
We travel a lot and I was traveling with my family and my kids who are pretty young. We picked the location as it is close to most of the tourist sites and also to the Termina train station. However the stay was more pleasant then we expected expected. The facility is owned by a family and they go out of the way to help their guests and make their stay as comfortable as possible. There is a personal touch to the establishment and it feels more like home than a hotel. I stayed for 4 days and on our last day we had to leave early so the host came early in the morning to arrange breakfast. They also know Rome very well and we were always seeking guidance on sight seeing and shopping and I am sure that saved us a good deal of time and money. On comfortability, the facility is very clean and cozy. Our room was well stocked with very good coffee and also a Bialetti moka pot. I normally do not write reviews but this stay was exceptional in many ways. I will highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Rome

The location is very central (about 20 minutes walk to the Colosseum and 15 minutes to Roma Termini train station) and the room was very clean. Doreen and the other two ladies that run the hotel were really very helpful throughout our stay, particularly when we had to call a doctor out over the weekend, which they arranged very quickly

It’s a wonderful place to stay, but a little difficult to locate and get into. Look for the Hotel Galatea sign and go into the archway. The code is 3690. You must go all the way to the back and go up staircase C (scala C). Call the phone number in your the reservation, as the receptionist is usually downstairs and you will have to call her anyway when you get to the 6th floor. Once you finally get in you’ll love it. Good luck!

The property is in a good location with plenty if bars & restaurants around and within easy distance of the tourist attractions. It's very homely, quiet and quaint and safe. Being on the 6th floor, we had our window open and didnt hear a sound all night. The room was comfortable, and we wrre provided with fruit juice, yogurt, ,tea, coffee & snacks daily. There os a communal kitchen to use and where you are provided with a deliciiys danish pastry for breakfast from a wonderful lady! We would love to return to Roma again one day. The ladies that we met that work there are so helpful and pleasant - they make your stay very happy and welcoming . Thank you! X

Lots of stairs and no working elevator.
The elevator is broken and there are six flights of stairs that you climb to get to the hotel. The stairs wind around and each flight of stairs contains 5 mini flights of stairs. They had someone bring our bags up, but when we checked out no one was in the hotel and we had to carry them down. The breakfast was all packaged and the water heater to make tea was not cleaned. The room was loud, but the bed was comfortable.
