Location very good for the bus and train station and plenty of places to eat in the evening.Breakfast was a very disappointing experience as we had to stand in the local coffee bar for a sweet cake and coffee and that was breakfast!Malone

It was cheap and in a good location which is what i was looking forEconomic should not reflect poor service and being asked to pay cash on arrival abruptly was off putting to start with but i had read on trip advisor this would happen, despite the hotel advertising they take cards. when the receptionist put my card through, i later found out since arriving home that it was to test the card and they deducted the price of the room and then added it back on however with the difference in exchange rates i am now £22 down. i have been assured by the hotel manager this will be put back onto my account within the next 15 days but the correspondence i have had from him, fabio alvisini, is the most arrogant, rude and abrasive i have ever come across. to treat your customers in the manner he has is quite unbelievable, i am flabbergasted! i would not recommend this hotel to anybody as the treatment of their customers is absolutely despicable. the hotel was clean enough but being on my honeymoon i wanted a double bed and got two single beds pushed together! we had to ask for clean towels after two days use also. briffa

On our arrival it was not a positive experience at all. an old worn out hotel. we were received by one of the chambermaids who saw to our check in. i refused to pay before i was shown the room and thank god i did so as i had to be shown three rooms till i got what i was promised on the hotel internet site. i was expected to pay a night's stay if i refused to take up the room i was being offered. it is unjust to show one thing on the internet and then offer another when you are physically there. i felt cheated and abused. the third room was round the corner on via marsala and not at the soggiorno blu. for breakfast we had to go to a bar round the corner and were allowed one croissant and a coffee and obviously standing up. thank god the third room we were offered was up to our expectation. i would give it more then a second thought to return or even recommend this hotel unless they do not uprade all their rooms similar to the one we were offered after much protest.On our arrival it was not a positive experience at all. an old worn out hotel. we were received by one of the chambermaids who saw to our check in. i refused to pay before i was shown the room and thank god i did so as i had to be shown three rooms till i got what i was promised on the hotel internet site. it is unjust to show one thing on the internet and then offer another when you are physically there. i felt cheated and abused. the third room was round the corner on via marsala and not at the soggiorno blu. for breakfast we had to go to a bar round the corner and were allowed one croissant and a coffee and obviously standing up. thank god the third room we were offered was up to our expectation. i would give it more then a second thought to return or even recommend this hotel unless they do not uprade all their rooms similar to the one we were offered after much protest.john chin chu min

We didn't stay at soggiorno blu because as soon as we arrived we were told that we would be staying at hotel planet, which is only one street away. apparentely, these two hotels are of the same company. i think that the location of hotel planet was better and the atmosphere was more welcoming. rooms were very very clean. staff was helpful. clean linen. As they don't have a restaurant at the hotel, for breakfast they gave us a ticket at the reception every morning and we had to cross the road and go to a bar where we were offered only a coffee/cappuchino and and croissant.

It takes a minute or two to walk to hotel blu from the termini train station, maybe 5 minutes if you have lots of luggage and it's your first time there. getting to the main sites of rome from the hotel were pretty easy too. location = a+
the room and bathroom were basic and super clean. The last day there, the water was freezing cold.
no wireless internet, eventhough they said they would have it.
breakfast was around the corner at a bar-cafe. the coffee was great and so were the breakfast pastries, but if you're healthy, you probably would not like this breakfast. it was pretty cramped and busy in there too, but the workers were friendly.
beds are not comfortable. they felt like cots so if you have back problems, sleep somewhere else.
no one was ever at the desk. i always had to ring the bell if i had a question.Miss S C Birch

Booked into hotel soggiorno blu for 4 people in 2 rooms.on arrival was told that they had over booked and we would be moved to another hotel that was round the corner.we went to the other hotel "hotel planet"and was informed that we would all be in 1 room for that night and then would be moved to 2 seperate rooms for the 2nd night.we were not pleased about this as they would only reduce the price by 5euros each.they also demanded we pay for the whole of our stay up front saying that if we didnt then they would take it out of my credit card,of which they had the details of from the original booking.we were given new rooms for the 2nd night and they were ok. the breakfast however was a different matter. we were told to go to a small cafe on the corner of our road and were given a ticket from the hotel marked up for 4 breakfasts which consisted of 1 croissant and 1 cup of coffee which was very disappointingAnonymous

It was close to the rail station - period!We were shuffled around from one hotel to the next, carrying our luggage and no offer for assistance. we stayed in a hotel that we did not book. there was no one at reception, and when we finally contacted someone to get our room, the service was far from friendly. the location of the hotel was great for what we needed (close to the rail station), however, it was dirty, dingy and appeared to be in a questiononable area that we did not like walking through in the evening. breakfast included was a joke! a croissant and a cup of coffee. definately not our best night stay for the steep price of 100 euro!!! we stayed in 10 different hotels in italy (that included breakfast) and this place did not come close to our "top 10". no soap, shampoo or hair dryer was supplied - towels and bedding were clean.Anonymous

Our light above the sink did not work, but we were only there one night and didn't want to waste time worrying about it.
