Description Gladiator Stripes: Roma

Decked out in intense colours and on the fourth floor with no lift, Gladiator Stripes isn’t one for the faint-hearted. We’re big fans of the look though, and it’s clear that the place is very well-kept. The host, Mary, also pushes the boat out when it comes to service - there’s a daily cleaning service and someone at reception until 11pm, as well as free laundry, great breakfast options, and recommendations of all the places tourists don’t know about.

Home truths:
*Both sofas in the living room are really a cross between sofas, beds and benches
*There's no lift in the building – you'll have to climb up four floors
*Taller guests should know that the shower is only 190cm high
*Guests 3 and 4 will be on the sofas in the communal area
