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!
