I found the Locanda del Fante to be a solid choice for my Rome trip, especially considering the budget-friendly price during the peak season. The cleanliness and charm of the rooms were impressive, though the location was a bit detached from the main sights. Breakfast served in my room was a cute touch, but I wasn’t a fan of the orange juice. Overall, it’s a value-for-money pick for those willing to trade some centrality for comfort.

My stay at Locanda Del Fante had its ups and downs. The rooms were quite charming and well-decorated, creating a cozy atmosphere. However, the service left much to be desired, particularly in terms of responsiveness and consistency.
