My stay at Domus Australia was quite enjoyable overall. The central location made exploring the city a breeze, and I appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel. However, I did encounter a couple of hiccups, such as a bit of noise from neighboring rooms and some issues with the shower water pressure. Still, the friendly staff and good breakfast options balanced things out.

I enjoyed my stay at Domus Australia, where the staff's friendly service and the hotel's cleanliness really stood out. The location was very convenient, with easy access to Termini Station and local restaurants. However, the breakfast could use improvement, especially with the lack of an egg station for made-to-order options. Overall, I found it to be a comfortable and pleasant experience, though there were some minor areas to enhance.

Rooms

While the breakfast had a decent selection, it could be improved with more freshly cooked options like an egg station. The rooftop dining area was nice, but the food quality was average, and communication with the staff could be tricky due to language barriers.
