On the first stop of our sixteen day, four city trip, (to Rome, Florence, Paris and London), we bagan here. I have to admit, I wasn't expecting great things from the hotel because of its poor photos. But, when we arrived the room was very clean, the staff was very nice & spoke English, the ocean was nice. I would say, It was unfortunate bad it was an hour away from Rome, but that's not their fault! Every day they cleaned the room - I have never been in a hotel room as clean! Air conditioning was broken, but they came up to fix it on the first day. Breakfast was okay, I wish there were more options. Overall, this hotel was the opposite of my negative expectations.
