This was a basic private hostel/hotel room. I was only there to sleep, so it was perfectly fine for a night. The bed was a twin size and quite firm but comfortable. The place was really clean. There was no on-site staff, but communication and instructions for how to get into the room was easy over WhatsApp.

There was not a lot of natural light in the room, so I wouldn’t make this the base for your whole vacation, but it’s good for a night or two if you plan to be out and about a lot.

The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable! The location is very close to a dangerous neighborhood in my opinion, but it's worth it considering the distance to the Colosseum and the historical landmarks throughout the city.

The WiFi connection did not reach our room and that was a little bit disappointing for me since I needed that strong connection for working. Moreover, the rooms are on the first floor and we couldn't keep the blinds open since our window was easily reachable and someone may come in through that.

Very close to Termini station - some 15 minutes walking or even less! The room was nice and clean, and there's also a lift in the building - the ancient one:D - but working perfectly - the apartment is on the first floor, but if you have a big suitcase - it does matter!:) Emanuele was super nice and friendly - we haven't met in person but 5 minutes after I booked the room I got his message - he sent me "step by step" video manual concerning how to get to the apartment and in general seemed to be a very positive person!:)

Wish the other guests could understand that if they have to share a bathroom they should keep it clean... But I can't blame the owners for that obviously...

I stayed at this lovely hotel for two days in September while visiting Rome, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The owner was incredibly nice and helpful, making me feel welcome right from the start. The room was spotless and very comfortable, perfect for a solo traveler like myself. The location is fantastic—close to all the main attractions yet still quiet enough for a peaceful stay. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Rome!

I had a wonderful experience at Hotel Roman Forum during my recent stay. Although I arrived before check-in hours, the staff was exceptionally accommodating, allowing me to store my luggage safely. They were friendly and went out of their way to ensure I felt welcomed. I truly enjoyed my one-night stay and appreciated their assistance in keeping my luggage until I returned for my flight. I highly recommend Hotel Roman Forum for its great service and convenient location!

The room was clean, the staff were friendly, and check-in/check-out was easy. Very good value.

The downside is that the soundproofing wasn’t very good, and the window in my room couldn’t be fully closed, so if you’re a light sleeper, the noise from the street might bother you.

22 solo traveller thoughts - Location is perfect, just outside the main city, but a small walk right into it. The bathroom being shared worked super well, the staff allowed as needed baggage holding, would stay again.

I am big on needing internet and it wasn’t overly reliable. The first one didn’t work, the second one worked if you stood by the bedroom door of the bedroom at the back… that was the only thing that made this stay hard.

Hotel is extremely clean and staffs were very friendly and helpful. Location was perfect for navigating the city, close to the station.

Neighbourhood isn't really that superb and clean. It is, however, anywhere in the big cities around main train station, you get to see some shadows, but it isn't too dark, almost bearable, or manageable. Also I didn't check it was shared bathrooms, yet it wasn't too stressful as only share with other two rooms.

loved my stay here! super clean, sharing a bathroom was no issue (although i’m not even sure someone else was there), the staff was super accomodating :)

there was no fridge so every time i wanted cold water i had to buy a new bottle but that’s probably my own fault for booking rome in august!

Before I arrived I was afraid because of some reviews, but it turned out to be a great stay. The room was clean and it was cleaned every day. The WiFi worked, there was a fridge and the air conditioner in the room. Also, the location is great, it is just some step of the public transportation and a supermarket and coffee places are just around the corner. The people who work there were kind and very helpful. They always replied to my messages quickly and attended to my requests. I really recommend the place. 😊
