La Locanda di Piazza del Popolo

Centrally located with easy access to popular attractions, the accommodation offers comfortable beds and friendly, helpful staff. However, some guests noted limited amenities.

This was our first night/hotel in Italy for a weeks holiday/cruise. It was the closest location (left) for our onward rail connection to the west coast (Civitavecchia). Initially, it was hard to find the hotel (at night/dark) and its front door (which wasn't illuminated). Thankfully reception staff came downstairs to the front door and talked us onto their location by mobile phone. There's a small hotel name/plaque at the front door, with several other plaques within the multi storey building (not easy to see, hence the issue). We were taken upstairs (used the small lift) to reception. The Philippine staff were very friendly and efficient, explaining everything that we needed to know for our one night's stay. A clean, small room, with a Tv, at 158 euros for 2 (146 UKP). We also had to pay 7 euros at reception ref city tax. You get no breakfast for this price. Expensive for what you get. The next day we were allowed to keep our luggage in a safe room whilst we walked out locally looking for breakfast (McDonald's is a short distance away and was ample). Our room was nothing like the advertisement/photo shown to the left of this review (we had half the size of room). We had to check out at 11am. The best thing about our stay was the staff, which we'd like to thank.
