My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms, although clean and quiet, felt a bit musty due to the lack of a proper window. On the bright side, our room had a lovely courtyard view and was small but cozy. The service was excellent, with a very friendly and helpful staff, and the location couldn't have been better, just behind the Pantheon. The dining options were tasty and varied, offering a good selection of breakfast items. Overall, it was a stay with ups and downs, but the friendly service and great location made up for some of the shortcomings.
