7.8/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the room didn't have a window, it was pleasant and well-located by the reception desk. The service was top-notch, with friendly and knowledgeable staff, and I particularly enjoyed the afternoon nibbles. The location was ideal, just a short walk from the Colosseum and near public transportation. The dining experience was alright but could use more variety. Overall, a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.
