Santamaria Inn

I would repeat without hesitation. Private bathroom, TV and daily two croissants on the door, yogurts and juice in the fridge of the room and a kitchen on the same floor equipped with microwave and coffee maker where you could make yourself a coffee at any time. The room and bathroom very clean every day made us the room. And the perfect location, next to Termini, and relatively close to all tourist spots. Something wrong? The neighborhood around Termini is very dark and with pretty dirty and dark alleys, but that is not negative of the pension but of the neighborhood. Something to improve? The wifi.

This place was shady. Don’t believe the reviews. Stay AWAY! This is on the shady part of town. Not family friendly. If you’re in your 20s and just need a place to hang your hat than it’s fine. But definitely not family friends. It’s basically a hostel made out of what looks like an old office building.

Excellent communication pre-stay, manned desk on arrival and care making up the room. The room is sizeable with comfortable en suite. Cute decor and clean. Pastry to your door at 07:30 every morning is a real touch with coffee machine and kettle in the room. If you need anything else a shared kitchen is fully stocked to replenish. The only negative is that the walls indeed are paper thin. It’s not the place for a quiet stay as we’ve heard other people’s TV, phones and talking (but not because anyone is being inconsiderate). We recommend this place for a city break. As a pad to crash and take it easy in the morning before exploring it is just right. That’s because the location here is brilliant. From the airport: €1.50 bus then metro and 3 minute walk. To the Vatican City or tourist centre of Rome (Metro - Line A - Stop Vittorio Emanuele). Again €1.50 a ticket for unlimited travel for an hour and you can use contactless (no need for the ticket machine). We’ve otherwise walked everywhere each morning (15mins to Colosseum) (25mins to tourist centre). Thank you for a lovely stay.
