Basic but functional and perfect location
Our experience of Dreaming Navona Rooms was a positive one on most accounts. The location is perfect - no more than a 20min walk to almost all attractions and 30mins to the furthest away. It is an area full of restaurants and bars but we heard no noise at all in the night. The accomodation itself was easy to access thanks to check in instructions sent on the day, but also Ann was there to meet us and show us the room. She gave us breakfast vouchers for a cafe 2mins walk away which was much appreciated. Just FYI for everyone complaining that it was just a coffee, juice and croissant - that is the case literally everywhere in Rome! If you want an English breakfast you need to stay somewhere where you can cook it yourself.
The facilities in the room are basic but everything you might need was there including a fridge, kettle, hair dryer and (most importantly) aircon.
The shower was extremely strong but difficult to regulate and the cubicle is the smallest shower cubicle I have ever been in! I was hitting my elbows on the sides every time I washed my hair. Also, we were expecting to pay 3.50Euro per person per night for city tax but we were informed the day before that it had increased to 6Euro. We paid it without complaint as it is to do with the government rather than the hotel. However afterwards an Italian friend told me it is only 6euros for 4 star hotels, and Dreaming Navona is listed as a 2 star. So we are a bit confused about this but I don't want to blame the hotel.
