The staff was great. They allowed us to store our luggage before and after check-in/out time. Any questions we had, they were graciously answered. They were friendly, and the hotel is right across the street from the Roma Termini (train station) which was super convenient.

Great location-steps from the Train Station!

Literally steps from the Train Station, Hotel Urbis is an absolutely fantastic location! However, this also makes for lots of noise & with no AC, you cannot close the windows in summer. The beds & pillows are very worn, bathrooms small, decor outdated & with no AC very hot. Despite the outdated rooms the staff is wonderful- all very friendly & accommodating, steps from the Train Station & walking distance for many of Rome's top sights.

A stone's throw from the train station. Friendly and helpful staff. Street was quiet at night. Free luggage storage for a few hours (though unsecured in a corner of the lobby)

Not worth it!

We chose this hotel because we got in late into Rome and we had an early morning train from Termini, so we just needed a place to stay that was close to the station. Yes, it's a stones throw from Termini but our experience was awful. The front desk didn't speak English, which isn't normally a problem if they understand the rules of business. He didn't understand that the hotel was prepaid through Expedia already and demanded I give him a credit card. At first I thought it was just for incidentals (although, this place was a dump, no incidentals) but he charged me the full price for the room I ALREADY paid for. In the morning, the manager assured us we would receive our money back but it's been a month and nothing has happened. Expedia won't even refund our stay. The room itself was scary, in terms of the bugs and the blankets were old and smelly. We had a bathroom and didn't use the shower, it was gross.

Hotel's location is great because it's really just 2 minutes walk to Roma Termini. The receptionist man during the day can speak English which is good. Most of the staff are friendly and ready to help. Our room is being clean everyday. Towels are really white and smell freshly wash.

Perfect place to crash while sightseeing in Rome.

People were friendly and helpful. The room was very basic, but adequate for our needs. You couldn't have a better location for sightseeing.

This hotel was very easy to find and was just by the train station .This is a 3star hotel that is more like a 2 star. But for the price and location was perfect for us . The entrance on the street was not the best. We didn't intend to spend agreat deal of time here and our 4 nights were OK. If you need some where to stay that is handy to the train station and your on abudget then this would be fine.

next door to Roma termini

Fairly shabby hotel but right next door to Roma termini. The rooms were reasonably clean, though, and if your #1 priority is a budget hotel close to the train station, this is a fair option.

Excellent location but room smelled of cigarette

The room smelled of cigarette. It improved though when we mentioned this to reception. The receptionists are nice and welcoming. Location is excellent as just infront of the Roma Termini station so was able to get to tourist areas very quickly.

Hotel close to the railway and bus lines

The hotel was hidden away on the second floor of a building containing multiple hotels. Even though there was a sizable sign out front there was virtually no markings inside the building leading to the front desk. The first clue was the room key had a different hotel name on the key chain and the room number was whited out and rewritten. The room was disappointing. Handles were missing from doors, shower doors barely worked, the refrigerator didn't work, the cabinet for the refrigerator was badly damaged, the room safe didn't work and wasn't bolted down, and most of the light bulbs were missing. The hotel staff was unable/unwilling to resolve any of the problems. This wasn't the worst hotel I've stayed at. It was clean and the maid service did a good job, but there was no way to ask that the room wasn't disturbed during our stay. The room was close to the transportation hub and the price was affordable. Had the owners/staff done some maintenance the hotel/stay would have been more agreeable.

Basic hotel in good location.

The hotel is basic, shared bathroom, no kettle etc in room. Right by the termini which was perfect. My major concern was the stair well up to the hotel, which was quiet at night. I had paid the same as friends who were staying in a hotel very nearby that had more facilities. I'd probably recommend you shop round first before booking.

Grotty

This hotel was seedy and grotty. I don't think we were expecting a palace as it wasn't too expensive for area but it didn't meet our realistic expectation. It was advertised with air con and breakfast in fact neither were included. The electric and light switches were malfunctioning and hanging off. There was an air con unit on the wall but we were told we had to pay an extra €10 for it. The wiring of this unit was frayed so we didn't dare pay for it. The bedspreads had cigarette burns on them and looked unclean. The shower was broken with no wall attachment. I wouldn't recommend anyone to stay here. Awful

Avoid

No air conditioning in the room - if you are in Rome in the summer, you would melt. The hotel is very central, which is excellent, though. The communal bathroom is quite disgusting, and not at all hygienic. The room itself was fine - but for the lack of air-conditioning it would have been fine.

Worst experience EVER

Where to start? The wifi didn't work in the room, when I complained, I was told it only worked in the "lobby", which was shabby and gross. Then the 13" CRT TV wouldn't turn on, when I complained, I was given another clicker, which of course didn't work. The shower handle was broken so you had to hold it all through the too hot then freezing shower. Finally I gave up and just went to bed. The bed was vastly uncomfortable and the pillows smelled of cigarettes. I couldn't wait to get out of there! Had I not spent so much I would have booked another hotel that night instead.
