Hotel Del Corso

Great location, friendly staff BUT the hotel is very run down. Rooms really, really need to be renovated, theres stains and damages everywhere; especially the showers appear a bit filthy unfortunately.
I urge the owner to put some money into repairing the hotel, a friendly staff and good location can only do so much. I went from 3 stars to 2 stars because the pictures online are very misleading.

DO NOT STAY HERE. We saw a ton of good reviews and are not strangers to staying abroad, so we felt confident in this choice. The location IS excellent, and the gentleman that checked us in was lovely. However, upon entering our room we were blasted by the scent of urine. Only two outlets in the room worked, the TV did not work, the coffee machine in the room was broken (though conveniently plugged into one of said working outlets), the toilet was constantly running, and there was very obvious mold in the shower. In fact, I would bet more than the exorbitant amount of money that we spent on that room that the shower had never been within 3 feet of a cleaning product. We wanted to leave, but knew that there was no way in hell we would get our money back. We are very non-confrontational and DEFINITELY did not want to be difficult obnoxious tourists, so my partner and I agreed that rather than complaining or asking for a refund, we would ask that housekeeping maybe do an extra clean of the bathroom. My partner speaks Italian well enough, so we opted to have him do the speaking. Before he even finished his sentence, the man at the front desk (not the aforementioned lovely one) started vehemently arguing and denying that there was mold in the shower. I took issue with this for 3 reasons: 1. My partner hadn't even FINISHED his sentence, so I suspect this is a complaint they had heard before. 2. It absolutely WAS mold because it was black, some was fuzzy, and it could be wiped away, so it wasn't just "old tile" like the man insisted. 3. We didn't accuse them of anything, we didn't complain, and we didn't ask for our money back! We just said "Hey, we noticed...would you mind..." and this man acted like we threatened to kill his mother. We just said okay and left for the day, hoping that they might clean the bathroom anyway. They did not. I also found the breakfast to be quite disappointing for the price point, though the breakfast staff was quite nice. The only really good thing I can say about this place is that we didn't get bedbugs....so silver lining, I guess. Anyway, if you would like to be in a good location and enjoy being in a space that would make a frat house feel clean, this is the hotel for you!

Edit - After posting this I noticed this hotel is listed as $52 per night. I have no idea where that is coming from, as we payed $882 for 3 nights.

Horrible. AC didn't work. The refrigerator didn't work. There are no vending machines. No ice machine. Mold in the bathroom. Floors are coming apart. Ele trical outlets didn't work or they were hanging out of electric box.

Imagine walking the streets of Rome all day in 90 deg heat and having to come back to a room with no AC. We had to open the window which had no screen. I wish I had read the reviews beforehand. Don't be fooled by the pictures online. It's not what you get. This was our first international trip. We learned for our next trip.

SCAM!!! We booked a double large room and got a single bed where one of us could barely fit. They told us “it is what it is” basically. Even the hot water was not working, to which the response was “if the water is not working in the building there is nothing we can do”. Staff was even not even polite and slightly cocky about the situation. Tourist trap. Don’t stay here.
