for openers, this old school hotel is directly across the street from st peter's plaza. you enter through a grand ole courtyard with palms, running water and statues. the cheerful english speaking staff is most helpful including their printing out airline boarding passes. rooms are decent size with in-room wireless computers. warmed towel ranks were a delight. and water was...

If you don't mind sleeping at night, then this may be the place for you...between listening to the garbage pick-up at 2am, honking cars, and literally listening the the conversation in the room next door, because the wall are SO thin, we didn't have a restful night at all.
