| Rooms were extremely small but clean. Staff was extremely friendly. Continental breakfast comes with it and was good quality. Good place to drop your bags and walk to everything. Cheap prices. |

| Our room was small but clean and quiet. We had some concerns about security - the key had to be left at the desk but they did not check your details when you requested a key. The hotel is in a central location within walking distance to the Trevi fountain and the Spanish steps. A metro station is only 5 minutes walk away. Breakfast was great. Overall a good value budget option in a central location. |

| Very old and worn out hotel but cheap at an excellent location. If you don't spend time in your room it is perfect. Bed was okay. |

| Hotel Elite was very small. It was a little difficult to get situated in the room with a normal sized suitcase. The hot water lasted long enough for only one quick shower but I stayed in Rome during July, so cold water wasn't so terrible. The television didn't work. Besides a few quirks, for the price and location, it was not at all a bad hotel. It definitely suited my needs. And, most importantly, it had air conditioning!! I think this hotel caters more towards first time travelers in Rome. The surrounding area tends to be pretty touristy. Other than that, I think it caters to pretty much anyone's needs. |

| Situated 2 minutes beside an underground station the hotel is optimal situated. The big minus is the room size and more the ded size. Quoted as a double bed room the bedsize is only a double for kids and the matress was very soft and very old. The size of the bathroom matches the rest of the room. To shower is only possible with acrobatic skills. |

| For extra euro more, I would recommend that rooms should be provided with coffee maker, microwave oven & mini refrigerator. Tahnk you. |

| Fantastic location to walk to Trevi fountain and Spanish steps. We had a quad room which was a good size for European rooms. Very clean. The bathroom was another story. Needs restoration soon or it will just fall thru to the floor below. The parquet floor was peeling up from previous water damage. The shower filled up fast if you weren't careful, and the hot water ran out quickly. We discovered that with 4 people, each had to only turn on the water in short bursts so as not to over-run the pan or use up the hot water. If you can live with that, the rest was fine. It was quiet with the window closed even facing the street. It was bright when the shutters were open. Continental breakfast was included and was ok. Free internet. The staff were very nice and extremely helpful. I hope they renovate soon, because I would definitely stay there again. |

| It was small and clean hotel. Very welcoming personal and a very good price in that area. Breakfest was actually very poor. A little bit too noisy. |

| Fantastic for the price and location. Rooms were cheaply and simply furnished as you'd expect for the price, but were very clean and comfortable and at a good tempurature (during a cold snap in Rome). Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, and were a godsend in negotiating with the local hospital when one of my friends fell in the street and broke a leg at 3am but found he'd left his medical card at home. Breakfast was standard but included the added bonus of freshly baked bread rolls which you don't often find in the cheaper establishments. Bathroom was cramped (had to stoop to shower -- but I'm 6 foot 3) but perfectly adequate and hot water was available all day. If you're the type who wants to spend a lot of time in your room (other than sleeping) then look elsewhere, but I couldn't recommend Elite highly enough for those who just want a fantastically located cheap base in central Rome (200 metres from Barberini metro). I visit Rome 3 or 4 times a year and Elite is my new first choice for a Roman hotel. |

| This hotel was in a great loction just a 2 min walk from both the Trevi Fountain and Spansh Steps, it is up a quiet road with a lovely steak restaurant on it i wouldrecommend it.the room was tiny but extremly clean again the bathroom was rediculously small bu clean. the room was clen daily. the walls where very thin and you could hear quite alot through them. i would reccomend this hotel for it's location but only if you won't be spending alot of time in the hotel as it's not one you can lounge around in we only used it to wash and sleep in so it was fine for us. |

| Hotel Elite's location is perfect for exploring Rome by foot or metro. I felt the room, though a bit dated, was charming, very clean, and the price perfectly acceptable for a hotel in that area of Rome. The receptionist was always friendly and helpful when asked for information. And there was a computer for use by guests, free internet connection. I was amazed that in the center of Rome a hotel room could be so quiet, the only noise at night being hotel guests in the hallway returning to their rooms. We had a room that overlooked the courtyard. |
