Hotel Barberini

es stank, war laut und klein!

This hotel is everything you want in an "Italian" experience. The hotel is located in city center and most things are within walking distance. It is also close to the hop on hop off buses as well for longer distance sites. We booked a Pompeii - Naples day trip and had to catch the bus early in the morning, the hotel had breakfast bags ready for us to take with us which was amazing since the bus ride was 2 hours one way. The tour included lunch as well. The hotel is clean, the beds are comfortable and the staff were outstanding!!

The hotel lobby is nice although you need to go down stairs to get to the front desk. The room was small but not too tiny to be in as a couple. The beds was called King size in the room description and the front desk. However, in actuality it was two single mattresses pushed together which would split apart if you got close to your partner. The mattress was one step up from sleeping on a wooden table in terms of comfort and softness. The pillows were too thin to sleep on your side with one but too thick to sleep with two and too thick to sleep on your back without straining your neck. The bathroom was a decent size with an average stand up shower. There were signs of black mould on the wall and when we arrived it smelt like burnt hair for some reason. The walls are paper thin meaning you can clearly hear your neighbors. Unfortunately we had a baby in the room beside us that was crying throughout the night. When we requested a room change with the front desk they told us that it was not possible until the following day. That did not help as we were checking out the following day. The fire alarm went off briefly in the night. Long enough to wake us up and get us out of bed. Then it just shut off. No reason was given as to why or what happened. The breakfast buffet was not anything special by any means. The eggs were a sawgy watery scrambled mess. The bacon was so undercooked I wouldn't recommend it and instead of breakfast sausages they had hotdogs.

Convenient location, 5 minutes walk to trevi Fountain, Spanish steps, 15-20 minutes walk to Termini and Colosseum. Friendly staff. Hotel condition is avarage, my room was sort of depressing, bath shower was not easy to use. No ventilation in the bathroom, bring a mask if you plan to use the toilet. I don't know how the hotel got such a high rating. I would not stay here again.

The front desk was very nice. The hotel was very near some tourist attractions and the rooftop restaurants view and food were very good. Althougj our room was on ghe corner and it was pretty loud at night but the service covers it up
