Sant'Ivo alla Sapienza Tours and Activities

Great hotel in a perfect location!

The hotel is in a great location. The downside is the restaurant inside the hotel overcharge me. I brought it up to the front desk they tried to me it was conversion fees. I told him my international fees are added/posted to my account separately. Other than that my stay was lovely.

First, this is no a traditional hotel. It’s two floors of a dirty old apartment building. You enter via door code next to several trash cans and walk up two flights of stairs to an elevator to the third floor reception, which is only open 8am-3pm. Staff was helpful providing after hours access via WhatsApp chat. The room was fortunately cleaner and brighter than the stairway and corridor, which stank of cigarette smoke, with modern finishes. However, the air conditioning did not work and since there’s no on-site staff, it was not addressed until the following day. Additionally, the best was among the oldest, least comfortable my wife or I have ever tried to sleep on. Lots of corridor noise throughout the night. We ended up departing after only one night into our three night stay so we could better sleep.
