Casa Santa Sofia

The hotel is situated in a very accessible location where u can walk to a large number of famous trees attraction within 20 minutes, including the Colosseum (5mins walk). The staff is friendly and the room is clean. The only thing that I have to complain is that the drain of the bathroom isn't working well. Also, there are modification words in progress, some of the facilities like restaurant and roof-top bar are closed. I will recommend this to you.

I didn't have great expectations so I was surprised by how nice the place is. I was planning to stay 3 nights but have only a reservation for 1 night. 1 night was enough for me to decide to go to another hotel for the rest of the week. My room was small, facing a super busy area and when you open the windows, the noise from outside is a lot but windows are good and when you close them, there is no noise! They offered Rituals shampoo, body lotion, and soap. My favourite! So that was a huge Yes! The receptionists (I dealt with 3) were fantastic. They also have a huge communal bathroom you can use before checkin to freshen up. That was great as I arrived in Rome on the Milan-Rome sleeper train, and I needed some freshen up at 8am while checkin is at 2pm. The area is actually very quirky with lots of restaurants and nice quality shopping. Bed was comfortable but have only one bedside table. Air-conditioning worked very well. Now the bad things: * The hotel is super difficult to find for a hotel that is so visible. I missed it twice! And then I missed it again when I came back at night. Needs more visibility. * The shower is tiny. I mean, I have been in small showers but this one is extremely small, I am a medium size woman, and I was afraid of turning because it only have a curtain and I thought I would make a mess of the bathroom. Showering was super stressful. * There is NO TV!!! I was hoping to see the end of the Euro Women's Cup, but I had to go and find a bar for that... * The location was not good for me. It would be good if you wanted to go to the Colosseum, but that is about it. * They offered no free water in the rooms, their water costs 2 euros and it is room temperature because there is no minifridge. * They take a €100 deposit, which they give you back when you check out. I didn't have a credit card, which could do that as mine would either charge me or I lose on the exchange rate, so I have to pay cash. They only charged me €50. They gave me cash when I checked out.

Honestly cannot fault this hotel. I was so surprised at how lovely it is and it's location is fantastic. The staff are so friendly and helpful when I come back to Rome you will find me here!

Perfect service, very friendly. Small but very nice and clean rooms for a very good price! Absolutely recommend it!

Great and clean location. Short walk to the Forum and the Colosseum

A very very very very good experience, and I like the smell in the hotel!
