    The only real disappointment was the breakfast. We expected at least a bit of variety and a place to sit, but all we got was packed croissants to take with you and a small do-it-yourself coffee machine. Other than that, we had no real issues.

    If you're not too demanding and are simply looking for a place to sleep, Hotel Farini will be just fine. The location is perfect for exploring Rome by foot, it is literally 3 minutes away from Termini Station. Also, it is not expensive at all, even though it is far from luxurious. It actually doesn't look like a hotel and could be difficult to find if you don't know the exact location. The staff, especially Mr. Angelo, was very nice and helped us find it with no problems.

    The windows were open we were unable to open the shutters due to an air conditioning unit blocking at the base of the shutters preventing us from being able to look out of the window making the room dark. No remote control for the TV.

    Close to Termini. Plenty of plug sockets

    Bathroom smelled of urine. Also the shower floods the entire bathroom so left with wet floors for a few hours while it drains. Bathroom needs upgrading as didn’t feel clean when using it due to above. Fridge in room didn’t work.

    Fantastic location, only 5 min walk to the train station. Colosseum was very close and the Vatican only a 1 hour walk if you are active otherwise it’s Ubers/e-bikes or scooters. Room was very spacious and felt clean.

    It’s very hard to find, the photos lead you to believe there’s a hotel sign outside which wasn’t present, it was a little sign on the door bells which wouldn’t have been noticed if I didn’t look.

    The location is perfect for first time visitors to Rome, literally 3/4 minute walk from Roma Termini station, about a 10 minute walk to the colosseum, 20 minute walk to the Trevi fountain and Pantheon. We took a taxi to the Vatican City as it’s around 2 miles away from the hotel.

    A small hotel which was within walking distance of many attractions and the Termini station - great for when we had to get the metro to the Vatican. The interior is older but the room was a good size and clean.

    beddings and towels have unpleasant smell. smells like they weren't really washed. you can tell if the fabric is clean or not...

    I like its location because it is close enough to train and bus stations.

    On arrival in Rome we got a message to say the booking had been cancelled. We were not happy! However on talking to the owner she offered an alternative location. She then met us at the original address, and we drove 10 minutes away to the other hotel. It was fine. Why she didn't just send us a change of address without giving us so much stress I don't know. The new hotel was a little further away - but not too bad. Apart from the hiccup at the beginning it was all fine.

    The hotel was great, and the kitchen well stocked for a DIY breakfast. Lots to like. Perfectly clean, enough towels and soap etc.

    1. The hot water disappeared and I couldn’t wash my hair in the morning. 2. Bathroom needs renovation.

    1. Localization near Termini and not far from Old town and Coliseum. 2. Coffee machine, teapot and croissants at the reception. 3. It was clean.

    Nooks and crannies of the room were very, very dusty. TV didn't work. Wifi was very spotty. Shower water pressure was non-existent. Fluorescent lighting. Limited "front desk". No one on site in the event of an emergency. Breakfast is a carton of communal milk in the fridge + a bad prepackaged pastry. Didn't see any coffee.

    Short walk to Termini Station. Huge room.

    2* hotel, don't expect too much. Very old hotel. The wifi signal was very poor. The hotel is old and the price is just crazy for this. You pay just for the good location. The breakfast wasn't really breakfast. Only coffee, tea and juice available at the reception and a little croissant wrapped in plastic. So I wouldn't call this "breakfast", but just "snacks", but ok, better than nothing! You can hear other guests in the other rooms, the walls are not very sound-proof.

    The location is great, very close to everything. We like walking, so we were able to walk almost everywhere (except for the Vatican). The staff was very kind and helpful!!! Everything was clean, we got new towels every day!
