Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Limited room variety — Only a Double Room is offered. If you need twin beds, a suite, or a family layout, this property won't suit — you'll have to look elsewhere.
- No on-site parking — There is no parking provision on the property. If you're driving, you'll need to find public parking in the area — which can be tight in Rome — or use the airport shuttle instead.
- Moderate value for the class — Value scores 7.8, and the property's overall 7.9 sits below the area average of 8.7. You're paying for convenience and location, not luxury.
