Hotel Igea

Room is small...especially the bathroom. The room was noisy in the evening because it was close to an elevator...possibly from the other building. . Each even there was a mechanical sound and a bell ring.

It’s an old building at a rather ghetto and dodgy neighbourhood. Won’t really be safe for solo female travellers since i was catcalled and disturbed by men there as i was walking by. It is near Roma Termini though so public transport is highly accessible. Plenty of souvenirs shops and supermarkets. The hotel itself has thin walls so you can hear other people’s snoring and noise pollution from the streets. It has a lift but as my room was on the first floor the lift stopped in the middle so i had to drag my luggages down the stairs to my room. A rather small and vintage lift by the way. The bathroom smell like sewage and water kept on dripping from the shower head. The room is clean however no issues with the bed or wardrobe. Plenty of hangers but lack in power plugs. Friendly and helpful reception staffs though. Breakfast option is just basic. Pastries, fruits, cereals with milk, pies, bread, scrambled egg and tomatoes. Preferably get your breakfast at 8am and above since the scrambled egg don’t come out until then. The one thing i dislike the most about the hotel is we had to leave our keys at reception whenever we go out. One night we came back with no one at the reception so we just took the keys ourselves so this shows how lack in security it is. Make sure to lock your luggages and keep away your valuables whenever you go out. Literally anyone can just grab the keys and enter your room. I’d choose a different hotel if i could but this was my only option due to last minute plans.

Giving 3 🌟 because its pne of the situations were you get what u payed for … we definitely wanted something cheaper and this was it ! Its perfectly located in the centre lots of shops and restaurants to chose from just a short wall away. Very easy to get to main attractions either by transport or walking!

We had breakfast included… wasnt a buffet, it was quite simple , bread , ham , cheese , jams , cereals and yogurt.. the coffee they had there was terrible amd watery even with the milk.. we did see some people asking for cappuccino that was made inside so we asked aswell and the waiter did not look happy that everyone started asking aswell… if it os an option then why not make a signage saying that you could ask for them to make you??

Other than that the rooms were ok, again, for the price cant expect a lot ! The shower door wasnt closing properly but we didnt complain.
Staff at reception was very nice and helpful at all times! Even let us keep our things in the fridge until we left and lent us a iron !

Great choice if you are not gonna soend too much money and wont be staying much inside the room!
