Matkat – Särkisalo

Mama mia! This was a great hotel for my first visit to Rome for three days. The check in experience was a 10 from the classy, tall, silver-haired gentleman at the front desk. He was seasoned in how to recieve guests and make them feel welcome. The room was modern and classy. The breakfast was very good and the location was perfect for seeing all the major attractions. Would stay here again! Bravo!!!

First, this is no a traditional hotel. It’s two floors of a dirty old apartment building. You enter via door code next to several trash cans and walk up two flights of stairs to an elevator to the third floor reception, which is only open 8am-3pm. Staff was helpful providing after hours access via WhatsApp chat. The room was fortunately cleaner and brighter than the stairway and corridor, which stank of cigarette smoke, with modern finishes. However, the air conditioning did not work and since there’s no on-site staff, it was not addressed until the following day. Additionally, the best was among the oldest, least comfortable my wife or I have ever tried to sleep on. Lots of corridor noise throughout the night. We ended up departing after only one night into our three night stay so we could better sleep.

Huone oli siisti ja sijainti erinomainen. Aamupala oli runsas. Aamupala on melko ruuhkainen johtuen enemmänkin siitä että hotelli on iso ja huoneita on paljon.
