Hotel Caravel

Travelled here with my daughter, I’m sat in the room writing this, I’ve read some bad reviews and can only presume they were walking around with their eyes closed. The staff were all really decent and helpful every person I spoke to in English made a real attempt to reply in a friendly manner, I can’t praise them enough. The room is great - massive balcony (first floor - room 110) twin doubles - tv is a bit useless unless you speak Italian but ok, we have phones and we didn’t come here to sit in our room, air conditioning is really good it was 37 degrees this week so cold air con was very welcome. Location is really good, not going to lie when I booked it I didn’t know where it was located I went by the the 4 stars and the pictures, it’s near a busy road shut the window and you cannot hear anything, if you want to go into Rome go out the front door turn left and left at the junction 10 minutes down the road is a metro, €7.50 for the day come and go as you please, Termini is the place you change for Vatican etc. Google the places it’s easy to navigate! Breakfast is really good, plenty of everything on offer, it’s a bit limited on choice for hot food, but there’s fresh water melon, cheese and turkey ham, a good coffee machine and endless juice that’s chilled, there’s also a really well stocked pastry section cakes croissant etc, really nice! If you use the coffee machine two portions of cappuccino fills the cup perfectly! Again the staff are friendly and very helpful! The only negative I found was no Bar, however just within a few minutes from the front door you will find bars and food of all varieties, I don’t drink so didn’t bother me. I’d 100% stay here again and I’d happily recommend to anyone, book it you won’t regret it.
