This was such a convenient place to stay! Minutes from the train station, walking distance to many sites!! The best part was the kind and helpful staff. And of course it is always a bonus when there is an elevator. Would stay at Altavilla again, given the opportunity!
Excellent location near Termini train station. Super convenient. Super friendly receptionist.

This is a great budget hotel. Great location right beside Roma Termini station. Great restaurants and shopping everywhere. 20 minutes walk to the Colosseum or 25 minutes to Trevi Fountain. Lots to see and do. My only comment is that housekeeping starts early at 6:30am. I'm an early riser so it did not bother me.

We didn’t expect the Ritz, but overall the property was fine. Air conditioning runs on a remote. Plenty of room. Clean room and sheets. Man at desk was less than thrilled to help us, but it was ok. Breakfast that is included is minimalist. Don’t plan on getting more than a coffee and a biscuit. Location was very central.
Staff available 24 hr, good location closed to the main station

Staff nice/kind, room neatly cleaned, enough hot water, hair dryer and great location. However facility awfully outdated and the bathroom definitely needed remodeling. Learned the lesson to check reviews before booking even during holiday season as it tarnishes good memory of the whole trip.

This is an old 2 star hotel that needs maintenance. I got the 4 person room and requires an upgrade, specially the bathroom.
Hotel is near train station, restaurants and within ~18 min walking distance to colosseum. Staff was helpful and supportive.

Although the rooms are very basic they look old and in need of some decoration but they provided us a good base near the main transport hub for the city and close to very good local restaurants. Staff were helpful and always on hand.
Very clean and good location just next to the roma termini train station and decent walk from main attractions. Perfect for our 1 night stay before going to venice.
Nice to be able to check in at noon
Elevator works
A/c works well

Disliked: Room comfort
The managers were very friendly and attentive to our needs . However , the toilet was broken and the little curtain in the shower didn’t prevent the water from coming out of the shower space and as a result we had huge puddles of water all over the bathroom preventing us from being able to use the bathroom . Room service did dry it once we asked and then the manager gave us free towels to place on the floor that otherwise would have cost 2 Euros every time you need it a new towel- the air conditioning was great
The hotel was convenient and the air conditioner was good, but the shower area was disturbing. The shower head was very dirty. I did not feel very clean after showering there.
The location is excellent, and the staff tried to help, but my room’s toilet didn’t flush for 3 days, and the shower flooded due to a blockage. I had to use a communal basement WC—unacceptable for any hotel. No maintenance was provided despite complaints. Age/rundown decor is one thing, but hygiene and basic facilities are non-negotiable
This is the first time in my life that I have stayed in accommodation like this.
Even considering the prices in Rome, the room was far too small. The building itself was old and worn down, and it did not seem like there was any intention to renovate or maintain it properly.
In particular, the room we stayed in had no proper way to cover the window, so there was only a curtain. Through the gaps in that curtain, we could see other people passing through the corridor — and this was from the bathroom.
In the bathroom, the toilet and shower area were all in one space, and the only shower facility was a hose fixed to the ceiling, which was very inconvenient. The toilet could not even flush down two sheets of toilet paper properly.
The only advantages were that it was near Termini Station, and that there was air conditioning and an elevator.
Other than that, the corridor was noisy at all hours — late at night, early in the morning, and in the evening — with a mix of sounds from guests, suitcases, and staff. The interior felt almost like being in a prison.
The TV had no signal, so we were not able to watch it even once. Even after several days of housekeeping, the bed sheets did not seem to have been properly washed or changed. The rotating fixture on the ceiling looked so dusty that it seemed like dust would fall if we turned it on.
If I come back to Rome, I would absolutely never want to stay here again.
The city tax was 5 euro not 3 per person per day , the place is so old and run down, not nice even close to what the pictures look like. Shower was horrible, either too much water pressure or hot water changed to cold so quickly. The bathroom was not nice to shower in . Shower curtain was gross to touch. Beds were comfortable, but over all the inside of the hotel was not appealing at all. Great location to everything.
The staff was kind and welcoming however the room was the weirdest i’ve ever been in. Toilet seat was broken resulting in us falling on the bathroom floor when trying to use it when we first arrived. We alerted the staff of this asap and nothing was done about it the entire stay. The room had three beds stacked beside eachother with no side tables. The so called shower aka foot tub had no curtain so water went everywhere. plug ins were ran through and did not hold any charger and our friend was charged €25 to come up to our room.
