2/10 Poor

The room was not so clean, pillows were discussing, the TV didn’t work, they only provided one set of towels. The location of the hotel was hard to find.

The room was good. Bed was comfortable and we had a nice view from our room. The bathroom shower was super small tho. Other than the shower, we didn’t have any problems. Also it’s super close to the metro and walk distance from terminal and most of the tourist places.

This property is in a great location away from the business of all the tourist attractions but yet close enough to travel to. Lily and her family were great hosts. Lily was so friendly and helpful. A great family run hotel! Will definitely recomend to other travelers. Thanks again for a great stay. Hope to see you again soon!

10/10 Exceptional

The area is perfect to walk around as there are lots of dining options available for a short distance as well as convenience stores. Metro very close by which made exploring the city easy and getting around at a low price not complicated. The place was very secure to get inside which was comforting. The cleanliness/bathroom could have been a little better but it was overall okay. Staff however was excellent and very helpful in showing around as well as so so friendly and prompt at responding messages

10/10 Exceptional

We planned a last minute day trip to Rome and scrambled to find accommodation - we’re so happy we came across the listing for Magic Door. The price was great, checking-in was pretty simple, and the staff was great (also communicated before hand about our arrival time which was very appreciated). The room has heat, A/C, a television, WiFi, secured doors into building, elevator and individual rooms, and basic bathroom amenities, as well as a mini shared coffee station. Convenient to the train station, shops, restaurants and many historical sites. This was a great deal for an overnight stay - if you are looking for a 5 star hotel, this isn’t for you, but this definitely surpasses the basics of hostels or group housing. Definitely recommend for single or couples looking for an affordable option in Rome!

This is a great option for anyone looking for an efficient location near the Termini train station. Staff was really friendly and accommodating, holding our luggage before check-in and after checking out so we could continue exploring the city. Communication was always on point and room was all we needed to crash for the night. Although the area surrounding the Guest House is not the prettiest, Rome is a very safe city and we never felt unsafe walking near the property late a night. There are two fantastic pastry shops within walking distance from the Guest House, which were absolutely amazing! I recommend and would stay at this property again.

Lily who checked us in was great. Friendly and helpful with directions. Property is close to a Metro stop and 15 walk from Termini. Room was big and clean. Building does have an elevator but elevator isn’t available for Magic Door guests. There were a few homeless ppl on the same street but Otherwise was a convenient location.

Stayed for 2 nights. Check in was easy and service was very friendly. For a “budget” hotel we found the room and security to be very sufficient. And the location next to the park and close to Termini was wonderful. Would stay here again if returning to Rome.
