Friendly staff; basic amenities in room, no tea, coffee facilities in room or iron or even hangers for clothing. Tea/ Coffee machine in lobby beyond lacking. Not value for money paid. Only redeeming feature, 5 mins walk from St Peter’s Square.

The staff here were most helpful. The general look is great, the position is fantastic. There are however a number of things that could be improved and opportunities apparently missed. The less expensive rooms, certainly, could do with a facelift, both rooms we looked at had greasy marks above the beds where heads had rested although floors were clean, linen was good. There is a lovely cloistered garden but this can only accessed through the restaurant which has limited opening, seeming mostly to concentrate on weddings. If the restaurant was open for lunch and onwards I'm sure there would be plenty of covers.

close to vatican city
well located, friendly staff and willing to help. however the wifi signal is very bad, sometimes it does not work and if the signal works it is weak, even the wifi signal is deficient in the hotel lobby. The other bad thing is that you have to create an account with your email to access the wifi signal. The other bad thing is the breakfast buffet, the selection is poor and little varied, you have no choice of hot dishes only limited to cereal, bread, hard-boiled egg, jams, cakes, coffee, orange juice.

No hot water..no discount?
We had no hot water for an entire day and no discount was offered. After a long day of traveling, that was very inconvenient. I realize that problems happen, but to not offer a discount is unacceptable. Broken light that had a stand that was ready to break off at any moment. Called maintenance, but lamp never fixed.

Happy Happy Happy!
This was a perfect choice for our stay in Rome. Two blocks from the Vatican, wonderful food, charming ambiance, staff was very helpful. This is a 500 year old monastery converted to a hotel. Our room was a suite, very large. Stunned us when we walked in! Only complaint was that there was a bathtub with a hand held shower to rinse, no overhead holder. Awkward. I would return in a heartbeat.

Excellent service and very friendly
Excellent help and advice given. Very helpful and friendly with allowing us to leave the car in the car park even though we had checked out. The hotel was right outside the Vatican City so it was possible to miss long queues for the basilica. Make sure you leave plenty of time to get to the local eateries early to avoid being told you can only have salad or pizza.

Not a good experience
I had booked a room for two people, when I got there it only showed for one. I was charged extra 25 euros per night per room. ( it cost an extra 100 euros for two rooms) My daughter's room had no air, and the air only runs at specific times during the day. Great location but very dated, I would not stay here again.

Perfect location near St. Peter's.
Highly professional and courteous staff, comfortable very old historic building. Comfortable in every respect with one advisory: air conditioning only operates part of each day and night. Oh can request a room with its own cooling unit; in summer you would want to do so. Otherwise, top notch.
