Helt nytt hotell i gammalt kloster, superfräsch med vacker o vilsam innergård, sköna sängar, lakan, badrockar. Härlig frukost med hipsterdragning, på egen bricka med möjlighet till olika val som tillagades på beställning. Nära till flera spännande områden - san Saba, ostiense, testaccio med butiker, restauranger och ”vanligt folk”. Några minuter till pendeltåget som tar en till havet, Ostia på 30 min eller Ostia antica (fantastiskt!).
