"The rooms are nice but be aware that the 4th floor is really busy and you won’t be able to sleep as they have their rooftop restaurant on the 5th floor and it’s really noisy, we had to change the room due to this issue and although we have paid for the larger room, they exchanged it with a smaller room which was hard to manage the luggage but at least it was quiet to rest. Beds are really comfortable..."

"I stayed here for three nights and the staff were very friendly, helpful and courteous. The room was excellent, very clean and comfortable. When I come back to Rome I will choose The Major again for it's location as it's within walking distance to alot of the main attractions but also a stones throw away from Termini station which is great for using the metro to get to places farther a field."
