Superb stay!

great locationclean roomhelpful staffmissing mirror
The location near the Colosseum and Termini Station was super. The hotel's cleanliness stood out and the rooms have space. Staff was helpful every time I asked questions. Breakfast had a great selection of fresh items, and I really liked the Italian pastries like the pistachio and lemon rings.
I found a slight issue with the room. There was no mirror over the table, so I had to use the bathroom mirror for makeup.

The location was decent. There was a bus station nearby.
I was charged for breakfast at checkout, even though i was told it was included. i also had to pay a tourist tax i was not informed about before arrival. This was quite disappointing.
