"Usually booked solid, the Roma has an oldworld elegance and is well maintained. Rooms vary and some are enormous, but few have air conditioning."

"The stylish 1940s ambience of this charming little pension, immaculately maintained by Madame Cressaty, is highly recommended and it’s wise to book in advance."

"Run by a French-Egyptian woman with impeccable standards, the Roma brings dignity, even elegance, to the budget-travel scene." Full review
