Celio displays a plaque proclaiming it one of the "Small Charming Hotels of Italy." While the decor in the public areas is charming (if dark), the operative word is SMALL, and it is more like a B&B. The halls & breakfast room are beautifully decorated w/mosaic floors & fabulous chandeliers. But the rooms are miniscule, dark, & shabby. Our "double room" might be fine w/one bed, but w/2 twin beds crammed in, there wasn't room to open our suitcases on the floor. I had to open mine on the bed and close it when I went to sleep. Our travel companions' quad rm should have been a double. Our sheets had holes in them, & the beds were hard. The rooms were chilly. The carpet was faded & needed cleaning. The bathrm and shower were clean but miniscule. The small space and dim lighting produced an oppressive, claustrophobic feeling. The rave reviews were misleading; many say how nice the owners are, when in fact, they had sour faces & looked put-out when we needed anything. The prices were like a fine hotel, but the experience was like a B&B, which should be priced lower. They served a continental breakfast, which was fine but not in the same league as the abundant buffets at our other hotels. Once my son got no croissant bcs "someone else had two" earlier. The hotel is not accessible, w/stairs to the front door, no elevator, & no space for a wheelchair (or overweight person) to maneuver. We planned to stay 3 nights but left after 2, bcs we couldn't bear the dim, cramped space any more.
