We had a very warm welcome from Anna, she made us feel at home. Our room had a balcony and everything you needed. Very clean. My husband and I had a wonderful time at the hotel and loved seeing Rome. Thank for making us feel at home.
was a beautiful stay and the staff made our stay so much more comfortable seeing as that was my first time in rome, i feel you definitely get more than what you pay. amazing price for amazing service.
We have stayed at the BW Universo a few times already and we'll go back again. Excellent location with lots of dining options in the area, 5 in walk to Termini to catch the express train to FCO, good rooms, quiet & clean.
Nice hotel. Lovely rooms. Only issue we had was that the hotel bar - although it said it was open until 11 shut early on New Year’s. They also closed their roof bar which seemed a bit odd when people come to watch the fireworks from the roof bars. We understand that they also want to celebrate but they could have forewarned people so they could get a drink to welcome in the new year.
Renovated property, our room had very nice finishes and bathroom. Our only complaint in that the bathroom did not exhaust after our showers and made the room very steamy. Plus the AC was not working so we slept with the window open, and unfortunately it was not comfortable.

They promise air conditioning but they don’t air conditioning in the cold weather. The rooms they’re very hot, they change me to two rooms, but was the same. The hotel don’t look like the pictures is complete different. The hotel need renovation badly.
