Unbelievable view
Check in was sketchy. Had made arrangements with Martina to drop off luggage at 11:00. No one showed, didn't answer phone. The staff at Hotel Traiano were not at all helpful. Within 30 min however the gentleman assigned to check people in called and came to let us in. That annoying snafu aside we absolutely loved this place. Is larger than appears in photos. Is not new and sterile but is in a charming old building with an old slow elevator so these need to be considered. The feature of this property that makes it so wonderul is the view. Much better than the pictures can convey. Every evening we watched the sunset on the coliseum. Trajan's market is across street, the forum and Palatine Hill are directly in front, the huge Victor Emanuel monument is to the right. There are many other ancient structures in view. The perch is a little precarious and would be a no go for those averse to heights but is fine for 2.
Incidentally the coffee/espresso maker is not working.
