Pinewood Hotel Rome

My husband and I stayed at this hotel with our tour group trafalgar, «Italian dreams.»
We arrived here around dusk on the first day after our meet and greet. The hotel sign is made of a cheap neon color acrylic (as posted). The outside of the hotel looks a bit dumpy as well. There is a «decorative» fountain covered by moss like stuff which also resembles fungi.
After you enter through the doors, you see the lobby. Nothing greatly fancy but much better than the outside appearance. The lobby seats/​couches are very receded so you have to sit way back (unless you’re very tall). See photo attached.
Even though there is a bar, it is nothing fancy. It did not look like they had a very big selection of drinks. Over the two nights we were there, I did not see anyone drinking there.
As you enter the skinny hallway to your rooms, you see the elevator on the right and stairs to the left. Sometimes the elevators do not work and it is also very small I would recommend to just take the staircase. It is very easy to get to the upper levels. A good width so you can also carry your luggage with you.
Food: the basement area is where the buffet breakfast is served. A selection of croissants, sweet breads, yogurt, white bread, salami/​cheese and ham cold platter, cereal, scrambled eggs, and Nescafé coffee maker. It opens at 7am unless the guide has made special arrangements for earlier breakfast.
Rooms: our bathroom was very small, it included a urinal, regular toilet, spa jet tub and shower combo. We smelled the urine scent in the urinal as we entered the room even though nothing was left behind. Next room is a small living area with a couch and tv (pretty cool because most rooms in Italy are very small). The next room housed our king bed. There was a small closet which had a safe as well. Oh, and another tv by the window. Bed was comfy.
Service of staff: Our airline lost our luggage the first day in Rome and our guide coordinated with hotel staff to have our bags sent to us from the airport. All staff members were very helpful.
The overall stay was pleasant. Of course, or is nothing compared to our US hotels but in Italy, it’s pretty good. Just remember, get over the dumpy look of the outside.
