Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms lack cosiness — Rooms and cleanliness score 6/10, and one guest found the large rooms not very cosy.
  • Outside the central area — The Tiburtino location means most sightseeing involves a metro ride; a guest described it as not central.
  • Check-in ends before midnight — Arrivals are only accepted between 14:00 and 23:59, so late-night travellers need to plan ahead.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel has a no-pets policy.
