It's an older hotel, but most, at the money asked, are. Has a last century charm. Great location for tourists. Some reviews said issues with A/C, problems with shower, but we had no issues. Fit our needs as tourists in Rome to site-see, not to relax. 5 min walk to St Peter Square (crosswalk underground for main street cross to Vatican, it's not marked, we found it last day). As you exit hotel, to the left, few door over, great restaurant, decent prices. The one to the right we did not like. Have a great stay!
