    Cleanliness could’ve been a little improved and it was a 35 min walk to the major attractions in Rome but the stroll through Trastevere is beautiful.

    The room was cozy and the views were stunning. It was also in a quiet location so good for actual resting.

    very small room, very thin walls with no sound-proofing so that we could hear the neighbouring room guests talking and laughing, no tea and coffee making facilities in room which was disappointing

    great location, trastavere area full of great restaurants and atmosphere nice reception and rooftop bar, staff very friendly and helpful, cool feeling about the place

    When we arrived the room allocated was occupied and the subsequent room was a double when we’d booked a twin. The staff graciously gave us two rooms until it could be corrected the next day.

    Excellent facilities and wonderful staff. Amazing rooftop bar / restaurant and great location.

    The only suggestion I have is about the universal lighting setup—In order to read in bed, I had to have all the lights on, and when I was ready to go to sleep, had to get out of bed to turn them off. My guess is that many of your guests would prefer to be able to turn out lights one by one. And it might save you money as well.

    I like most everything about San Francesco and look forwarding to returning. Location is ideal for travelers, staff are friendly and helpful.

    The beds were not very comfortable.

    Upon arrival you might think this isn’t in the best of areas but after getting out and walking around you realize that it is safe and the spot to be if you would like to be close to all the tourist attractions and what is considered some of the best authentic dining in Rome. You’ll find restaurants with great value as well as five-star dining. You can easily access shared transportation apps such as scooters or bicycles directly outside the hotel to reach the Colosseum and about €10-15 Uber ride to sistine chapel and all of the other tourist spots. Also close to the train station for about an equal fair. The hotel itself is very nice on the inside with a modern appeal and a very nice rooftop terrace for happy hour drinks and tapas. The bartenders up there are so nice and make great craft cocktails! In all, an amazing value. Only thing that can make it better is more comfortable beds. Would for sure stay again!!

    Showers have little power, beds are a little hard, roof top isn't really special.

    Location is superb, its a small boutqiue hotel, close to lots of nice restaurants etc in Trastevere and Testaccio, also close to a lot of nice churches. Rooms are small but perfecty fine, its not super luxury but very good in respect of the price and location. Perfect for sole travellers also!

    There was nothing we didn't like except that we couldn't stay longer! Some might find the location too far off the well beaten track but it is actually quite close to the heart of the touristy area of Trastevere without being loud and crowded.

    This is a beautifully simple hotel. The rooms are spacious by city standards, comfortable beds, the sheets were soft and extra blankets were available with no hassle. They had good blackout shutters as well. The shower was large and had great water pressure. Towels were plentiful and generously sized, the toiletries were upscale. It was quiet, simply decorated and the rooms had wonderful natural light. The lobby bar /coffee bar and breakfast area were elegant , comfortable and the service was friendly and multilingual. We had morning cappuccinos and espressos only, but full breakfast is available as well. The restaurant has a great reputation but we did not eat there so cannot comment. The roof deck is gorgeous, make sure and have an aperitivo up there one evening, you must reserve! The roof has sweeping views of Aventino Hill, multiple basilica domes and the Altare de la Patria. I believe it is closed Mondays, but not sure. The staff at this place is very well trained and super helpful with getting taxis and information. We spent time chatting with the staff and were impressed by them! Shout out especially to the front desk people and the bartender/barista Farouk. Special mention to the talented mixologist James. Lovely folks :) The hotel is located in Trastevere right near Porta Portese and the bridge over to Testaccio, where you can find restaurants and strolling where there are no big tour groups. We will definitely book again.

    The bed was a little hard for me, but I tend to like a softer mattress. Despite that, I still slept really well.

    A beautiful boutique hotel close to all the attractions of Rome. The staff were all very kind and accommodating. The hotel is located in a charming neighbourhood, in the centre with scenic streets, lovely restaurants and affordable eateries. It cost no more than 10 Euros to travel by taxi to any of the main tourist destinations in Rome. The rooftop bar/restaurant was also a lovely surprise, and perfect for a cocktail at the end of long day of sightseeing.
