+ Leistungsstarke Klimaanlage in jedem Zimmer
+ Verkehrsgünstige Lage direkt am Porta Maggiore, man kommt gut weg & zurück.
+ Sehr freundliche & hilfsbereite Eigentümerin
+ Saubere Zimmer, gute Betten
- Personal spricht nur teilweise englisch (evtl. Ansporn, vorher etwas mehr italienisch zu lernen? ;-))
- Das Frühstück war ausschließlich "süß" und bestand nur aus abgepackter Fertigware. Für einen Tag ok., nicht aber für eine Woche.
- Reichlich Straßenlärm tagsüber, nachts in Ordnung
- War als "Hotel" hier auf Expedia deklariert - war aber tatsächlich nur Bed & Breakfast, also kein Frühstücksraum mit einer gewissen Auswahl usw.
Alles in allem empfehlenswert, denn die paar Nachteile stehen der Tatsache gegenüber, dass man vor allem kühl & gut im Sommer schlafen kann, alles gepflegt ist und man verkehrsmäßig gut mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln in alle Richtungen hin- u. herpendeln kann.
Kleine, familiäre Pension. Netter Kontakt, einfaches Frühstück auf dem Zimmer. Fussläufig zu ÖPNV, an sehr lauter Straße, Fenster aber gut isoliert und Zimmer mit Klimaanlage. Äußere Umgebung nicht so besonders. Va unter dem Preis-Leistungsaspekt ohne Frage empfehlenswert.

Cheap and chearful
Hotel is equal distance between two metro stations. There are a number of grocery stores and restaurants in the area. No AC, fan or kettle in the room. One bathroom light was out the entire trip (i was there for a week), and i was promised that it would be fixed, didn't happen.. Elevator is claustrophobic and was avoided except on arrival and departure when I had my luggage.
Big signs on the outside of hotel offering rooms for 45 Euros, not certain of the details of that offer. Wifi was good.. Not in the middle of Paris, but Metro makes it convenient. Very few escalators or elevators in Paris metro stations, lots of stairs
wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und mit Tipps zu Verkehrsmitteln und Essen gehen versorgt. Das Zimmer im Keller war von Vorteil, da sehr kühl und leise. Es wurde täglich gereinigt und sehr sauber. Dusche klein aber fein. Ein Plus: Wasserkocher, Kühlschrank und das (italienische)Frühstück.
This nice guest house had everything we needed for our stay in Rome....a comfortable bed, fridge, table and chair, kettle and light breakfast items. It is only a short walk straight down the road to this property, and there are a number of restaurants and cafes nearby. If you are an avid walker, you can walk to all areas including the Vatican, but buses and the metro are located very close by.
The family running this guesthouse were very helpful and we got a good orientation to the area. It is a safe place to stay and we would not hesitate to stay here in the future. Thanks for a comfortable stay!
Mr Guseppe was an excellent host. He was expecting us and escorted us to the room. He explained and gave all the necessary information. He was always available and whenever you needed some information he was available. he made you feel welcome. The accommodation was spotless as were the public areas. Breakfast is not included but croissants coffee etc are provided every day in the room which is an excellent idea.The hotel is situated very close to bus routes and tram and is 15 minutes away from the train station by walk.. Its a pity that part of the area needs to be tidied up. Overall it was a very good stay and would definitely stay again at La rotella nel sacco.
Family owned business. It is clean and room service is prompt everyday. Cons: no front desk where someone is readily available. Bed is hard. Pros: good location for a reasonnable price. Clean.
Hotel renovado, limpio y cercano a la estación de Termini, donde te pueden encontrar un montón de restaurantes y comercios en las calles adyacentes y también supermercados y una zona a 10 minutos andando de marcha estudiantil llena de locales. El hotel tiene mucho encanto y los muebles son muy bonitos y originales. Total libertad para entrar y salir sin ningún problema, al dejarte los dueños las llaves de acceso, no hace falta pedirlas cada vez que quieras entrar. Destaca por su limpieza y la calidad del colchón y el silencio que hay en el inmueble . Único punto en el que flojea en mi opinión es el desayuno... Poca variedad y café de sobre y todo a base de dulces y envasado... Todo lo demás muy bien.
warmes Zimmer, mit geschlossenen Fenstern im Winter gut zu schlafen, ein schönes Badezimmer, Küche, gute Bettwäsche/Handtücher, Pflegeartikel

The rooms where to small
We requested single beds in both our rooms which was confirmed by the hotel when we arrived we were told one of the rooms only had a double bed and because the room was so small they could not put a roll away bed in there. Not happy however had to accept as they had no more rooms and we had paid in advance. They should change the way they advertise there breakfast as it’s not a continental breakfast it’s a few bits of cakes on a tray that’s left in your room the day before you don’t get any cereal or milk or juice etc. The area where the hotel is situated is very run down and not suitable for families of couples just for groups.
Ho soggiornato per due notti ed era tutto perfetto: la camera e il bagno pultissimi, il proprietario gentilissimo. La posizione è ottima, comoda sia per i tram, a due passi da lì, che per la metro (meno di dieci minuti a piedi), nelle vicinanze è presente anche un supermercato.
Rom hat sehr viel an Kultur zu bieten. Wir haben viele der Örtlichkeiten besucht und auch bestaunt. Es war eine wirkliche Hochkultur. Leider ging es seit dem Zerfall des römischen Reichey nur noch Berg ab! Rom ist sehr schmutzig, unorganisiert und chaotisch. Durch die ganzen Denkmäler werden (unorganisiert) tausende von Besuchern durchgeschläust! Für mich ist klar; einmal Rom nie mehr Rom! Schade.

Stayed in Rome for three nights. Hotel is a 25 min walk to colosseum and also walking distance to Termini. Margerita was lovely and explained everything about transport and where to visit etc. Very clean beautiful room. With basic toiletries and hairdryer. great stay overall, especially for the price. Breakfast is hot drinks and ready packaged pastries, biscuits, cakes etc available in the room.

Nice room. Out of the way location. Pleasant staff. Low cost option.
This is a family own hotel and u will be greeted by the owner at arrival . So :
POSITIVE : lyna is great and very lovely she received me and explained everything in detail to me and was extremely polite , the room is great and clean you will get ur own key to enter the building since there is no reception u will feel like u own a room in rome .
NEGATIVE: part of the area that sorround the hotel feels unsafe many strange people walking around... also they could improve the breakfast a little bit is just basics with no fruits or fresh breads
Margharita made us feel very welcome, and very informative on transport and sights to see. Room was lovely and comfortable .. made the whole trip fantastic
The hotel was not far from the train station. The hotel is very clean and the room was spacious. The bathroom was clean and modern and the shower was larger than average Italian showers I have used. The location is still in the city proper but a bit of a walk to the most popular tourist attractions. You are however very close to metro stops, tram stops and bus stops. This hotel is very good value for money. The manager gave a very good orientation on how to get around
I would stay at this hotel again.
I had four nights in rome and I stayed at La rottela hotel which we impressed with welcoming of Ms. Margreta. She give us all the information to facilitate our stay in rome such as transportation facilities , resturants and tourist passes. The rome is very clean and air conditioned. Breakfast was average. Location is very accessable by public transportation( bus , tram and metro) is just beside the hotel few meters away. I would strongly recommend this hotel as i feel very value for money.
Amazing stay, amazing place and amazing host. The room and amenities were really great. The room and bathroom were newly renovated and everything was just amazing and simple and great taste! We were able to make cappuccino in the morning and were given some croissants and waffles for breakfast. Our host was really helpful and friendly. Good wifi. Loved it!
