The location is close walking distance to Termini station with several dining options close by. We especially liked caffe Washington just steps away. The room was clean and service was great we had a couple minor issues and they were dealt with immediately. As far as proximity to the major attractions they are half hour to an hour walk but there are 2 metro stations that were less than 10 minutes away.

We stayed at Best Western Plus Universo for our first trip to Rome. We chose this as it is a trusted brand and very close to Termini station. Our room was very clean and equipped with amenities perfect for our needs, with a lovely balcony view! The property is a bit dated with very obvious signs of age but they are doing a great job maintaining a comfortable stay for their guests! All the staff we met were friendly and helpful! Would stay here again and highly recommend to other travellers looking for convenient location and friendly service!
