The hotel is in good condition, good breakfast. The staff was OK. The problem is the location. If you don't have a car, you can only get to the hotel by local bus (or taxi of course). The buses go every 30 minutes or so, but theyir timetable seems to be quite flexible and sometimes we had to wait 40 minutes for a bus back to the hotel. Also it takes almost one hour to get from Rome center to the hotel - first by metro, then with bus (or metro + train + bus). I think you can get to Ostia beach with a single bus, but we didn't try this option. So the hotel is in relatively good location if you want to combine both seeing Rome center and some beach activities at Ostia. But the main problem is the not so good bus service.
