We stayed here for two nights as a family of three. The location isn’t too far from the station, but with luggage it’s a bit inconvenient. Buses nearby make it easy to reach places like the Trevi Fountain, and the Colosseum is accessible by metro. Breakfast was good with a decent variety. On the downside, the elevator was very small, the room furnishings felt a bit flimsy, and the air conditioning was extremely noisy, making it hard to sleep. Staff were neither unfriendly nor especially welcoming.

Highly recommend. The staff is incredibly friendly, multi-lingual and gave good recommendations around the area. It was in good walking distance to all that you want to see, but not in a heavy traffic area. I would stay in this hotel again.

We had a mostly lovely stay at The Guardian Hotel. On arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with a free room upgrade, which was a great start. The room itself was spotlessly clean, and the hotel overall was well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, even bringing us an iron when we asked. Breakfast was also a highlight – fresh, tasty, and a good variety to choose from. There were a few small drawbacks: the walls are very narrow, which made noise late at night and early in the morning. Our shower kept switching between hot and cold, which wasn’t ideal, and the fridge in the room didn’t work, which was a bit inconvenient.
