Peaceful City Stay

metro access mid-century design

The location provided quiet . It stood close to a metro stop, providing easy access to Termini and the airport. I found the villa possessed a mid-century design with matching features.

I discovered the hotel's layout felt oddly arranged. I noticed my room was large, but poorly designed, and quite dark. The pool was closed.

Service

The staff spoke English fluently, proving helpful. They were friendly and obliging. This added greatly to the experience. I appreciated their ability to assist with various requests.

Dining

Buffet breakfasts contained tasty and plentiful options! I found the selection well-stocked and diverse. The breakfast options provided a good start to the day, though the food tasted slightly stale.

a decent stay with some drawbacks

superior garden room friendly staff tasty breakfast uncomfortable bed elevator door traffic roar

I thought the breakfast was tasty and plentiful. the staff was friendly. They all spoke english. the superior garden room (no. 5) was large and quiet (i really appreciated that).

the bed was just ok, it wasn't the most comfortable. the hotel is close to a main road, but there was no traffic roar at least.
