Luxury Nomentano

If you like basic but quirky, Luxury Nomentano may fit the bill. It's located in a residential area of Nomentano, out of the city, but easy to get to by using the No 90 bus. It took about 15 minutes, depending on Rome's traffic, to get there from the Termini Station. Get off at the Val D'Aosta stop, cross the road and walk down the hill past the Ibis Hotel. Take the 2nd turning on the left and the apartment block is a short distance on the left. The room was comfortable, and it was cleaned daily and the bins emptied. My room had a balcony I could sit out on after a day of sight seeing. The disco lighting that greets you as you come through the main door might not be to everyone's taste, but it sort of fits in with the décor of the apartment. You have a key card to access the building and the doors to get in, so once you've checked in, you and pretty much left to you're own devices. If you want any information, ask as soon as you check in as unless you stay in your room, you probably won't see the owner again. Check out, you just left your key card at reception.

The view from my room was of the residential courtyard and all the high rise residential blocks, but it did get the sun for a few hours in the evening. Not much sound proofing in the building I'm guessing, as it could be a little noisy. My room was next to reception and you could hear everything that was going on, and other guests coming into the apartment, sometimes at all hours of the night.
