Great Stay in Roma
We had a great stay at the Best Western Universo. The location is excellent - within walking distance to attractions, conveniently close to the train station and restaurants but tucked away from the hustle and bustle. Our room was small but clean and the service at the front desk was friendly and helpful. Black out curtains made it very easy to sleep. This hotel makes a great home base for exploring beautiful Rome. Would recommend!

The property is very clean, staff are friendly and helpful and there is a good buffet breakfast available. No hesitation in recommending it.

Great stay at Best Western Plus Hotel Universo
I had a short 2 night stay that was part of a longer trip around Italy. The 2 previous hotels I was at had tiny showers so I was very relieved to find a huge shower at Best Western Plus Hotel Universo. I was also please at the location making it extremely easy to get to pulling a large suitcase.

We loved that we have close access to the termini which allowed us to use this if we needed, but we did find that we could walk easily around from here - it was enjoyable walk into the city center. Slight hills to navigate but worth it. You stumble across so much of Rome by walking its streets. This hotel is modern and has everything you need.

The bathroom is clean, the staff are super friendly and helpful. The breakfast coffee tastes awesome. The location is OK, a bit busy, but we feel safe and it is walkable to the Termini. What we are not very impressed with is the smell of the carpet when the AC is off. The stairs inside the room are unbelievably noisy, but not sure if it only that room.
