Rome hotels in Aurelio

Cons: Busloads of tourists staying at Hotel. Full breakfast choices/quality slim for the price.

Cons: The elevator. This is unfortunately a given feature. Very small, narrow, fits 2 only, or 1 with a travel luggage. There is no door at the entrance level. You walk up 1/2 or down 1/2 to get to the door. The elevator is frequently unaccessible because one of the guests forgot to close the inner doors ( not automatic). So it’s a pain in the neck, better just walk the stairs. Despite of this, I give 5* because everything else compensates this. However people who can’t walk stairs should look elsewhere.

Cons: They did not have electrical adapter connections for US appliances such as my cell phone charging station.

Cons: Terrible location far from the city center or even the Vatican as advertised. The neighborhood is completely littered with trash, just as the hotel had food laying around on the floors for our entire stay. You would be better off sleeping on the floor instead of the aweful mattress and you will be up to your ankles w/ water in the shower. Breakfast was almost ok...except for if you are not Italian you have to drink the "dirty water" vending machine caffe/coffee that tastes like you got it in an American hospital (Italian speakers were offered better caffes from the back by the staff upon arrival). The walls are paper thin and if you weren't completely distracted by the strange noises from within the room there were plenty of noises to here from outside of the room. Be advised also that the city tax is listed incorrectly and is now 6 euros per person per day.

Cons: In terms of the hotel nothing really, It is small but I don't expect it to be America. When in Rome...

Cons: First of all, airconditioning was very bad. the temperature was controlled and looks like it is in fan only. Had to open windows to have fresh air. Need to ask for toiletries as they don't put enough for two people. Front desk was not too helpful when my luggage was missing. I had it stored for the weekend as we went out of town and when I claimed it, one of the two luggages is gone, must have been lost or stolen. We were leaving the next day and it has been more than 5 days now and I have not heard from them. You know how it feels to lose a luggage with all my shopping, gifts I bought and all the efforts and time spent. The hotel has no sense of responsibility, did not care and no apology was extended to me, very bad customer service!

Cons: Prepaid room was sold to acccomidate large block of bookings. Hotel manager said they had no way of contacting us, but I gave my phone number when I paid for the reservation???
