I was thrilled with the hotel's location near the Vatican, making it convenient to visit St Peter's Square and the Vatican Museums within a few minutes' walk. The residential cul-de-sac area provided a quiet retreat, and easy access to nearby metro stations enhanced the overall travel experience. While the room provided a clean and comfortable stay, the lack of certain amenities was a slight drawback.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! It's so close to Ottoviano metro station, and nestled in a residential cul-de-sac area. The rooms were cleaned every day, which was fantastic, but the dining experience, although offering home-made pies and jams, had room for improvement. The service was top-notch, and the location couldn't be more convenient for exploring the Vatican museums in just a few minutes' walk.
