Okay for a short stay
Overall, the position is great and you will find everything you need for a short visit. However, the state of the rooms ( at least in my case) is very basic and very run down ( marks on the walls, damage to the bed frame, mould in the bathroom.. ) which doesn't entirely justice the price in my opinion.

The internet is pretty much non existent which is a key point for tourists, it was very annoying not having a wifi, the breakfast is also not really a breakfast but a few packaged biscuits that were tasteless , so they shouldnt advertise breakfast. The area is very good and close to train station which was pleasant, rooms very clean however the furnitures were old and stained.

I recently stayed at Sensation House during my visit to Rome, and while the place had its merits, there were a few significant drawbacks that left me disappointed. I believe it is essential to share my experience to help future travelers make informed decisions. Firstly, let's start with the positives. Sensation House boasts a decent location, which allowed for convenient access to popular attractions and public transportation. The overall ambiance of the place was pleasant, and the cleanliness standards were satisfactory. However, there were two significant issues that overshadowed these positive aspects. The first concern was the ineffective air conditioning system, which proved to be a major letdown considering the scorching heat in Rome during my stay. The A/C unit struggled to cool the room adequately, making it uncomfortable and difficult to relax or get a good night's sleep. This issue significantly impacted the overall experience and left me feeling dissatisfied. Another disappointment came in the form of the extra bed provided for my son. The bed was unbelievably small and the mattress, remarkably thin. It was far from comfortable, and my son had trouble sleeping on it. Given the price I paid for the room, I expected better quality and comfort for the additional bed. This aspect left a lasting negative impression on our stay. Moreover, considering the aforementioned issues, the price of the accommodation felt unjustifiably high.

Comfortable room
Very good location. Comfortable and clean room with a good sized on suite bathroom. The place is modern but showing signs of use. For example, broken toilet seat and shower head, the hairdryer wires were exposed and the kettle in the common area not working. The breakfast is very basic - just some prepackaged cakes and toast - and the coffee was awful. Could also do with more than 3 hangers in a double room.

Sensation House is THE best choice to make when visiting Rome! The common area/kitchen is perfect with coffee and pastries available 24hrs a day. The refrigerator is also very convenient. Staff is friendly and readily available if if you lock yourself out of your room :( Thank you for making our stay extra memorable!

No safety box
The checking in was very smooth every thing is arranged before our arriving. The hotel is clean and the room style is nice. The only missing item was the safety box in the room. Also they change the sheets & towels every three days which is not helpful i think Bed sheets and towels have to be changed every day especially when you are on holiday! Overall it was good and I do recommend it.
