10/10 Exceptional

budget Rome
Great location from which to walk or cab to all of the top spots in Rome. Average 15 Euro to most anywhere, or you can walk there in 20 minutes or less. Room soundproofing isn't great, but okay unless you are a very light sleeper. Lots of places to eat and shop within a block or two. Make sure you have cell phone that works in Europe or you may have trouble checking in. Building front door is always locked and door intercom doesn't work well. You have to call the staff to get in. Be sure you have the number.

Great hotel with great location
My experience at Palazzo Medusa was great. Mathew, the host, was very friendly and welcoming. The rooms are beautiful and clean. The location is also great. Nearby many good restaurants and the main places to visit in Rome. Definitely coming back !

Great little hotel in supreme location
It's a really small hotel (6 rooms), but its condition is great. Everything in the room was almost new. Everything functioned. Hotel management is onsite in the morning only, but always reachable and very helpful. Cleaning was generally good, but did not include daily vacuuming. The hotel is in a little side street, and doesn't look like a hotel from the outside. But its location is supreme - we walked to Piazza Navona, Trevi fountain, Spanish stairs/Villa di Medici, forum/Colosseum/Palatine hill, Curia Pompeii, and the Vatican. The area is chockful of restaurants, gelaterias, little shops, etc. There are also several supermarkets nearby. I don't think the location can be beaten.

Quiet and Restful Stay
The room is close to transport and you can easily get to attractions on the bus. Don't even think about hiring a car! Parking is impossible. The room was very quiet and comfortable with airconditioning. Windows open also if necessary. The bed was a Kingsize double and there is a private bathroom. Tea and coffee making facilities were provided. The hotel has a lift, but we used the (steep) stairs. The hotel is located in a small and quiet laneway. There's no front desk as such, but staff are available at certain hours. We had a small maintenance issues that was attended to immediately.

4/10 Fair

The restroom smell very bad. You can hear everything from room to room. At the middle of the night a snoring next door woke me up. The cleaning lady opened my door at 10am without knocking first and scared me! Good customer service from reception but overall very bad experience.

Valentina was amazing and so helpful. Property was close to everything with access to hop on hop off and buses very close to the Vatican and made it easy to do what we had planned to do. We did call a taxi to go to the LDS temple and that was so beautiful. The visitor center there Was the highlight and refreshing. We also visited the Jewish ghetto, The food There was great. We also visited Saint Peters basilica and toured the city, including the Colosseum and other locations. The hotel was so convenient for all of this. Now heading off on a cruise through the Mediterranean .

2/10 Poor

Bad experience
Extremely bad experience with the staff, cam from Australia after a long trip unloaded luggage then stuff tell me that they cannot take a four-year-old child to sleep with his parents and the time we could not check in. Not consideration that we came around the world to stay in Rome and start a holiday not consideration that we had a small child with us we could not even use the toilet or anything and was sent away. Extremely bad experience I will not recommend this place for families or anyone.
