A great cheap sleep


So, what kind of hotel do you get for $115 per night? At the Hotel des Artistes near the Termini train station, I’ve got a clean room with pain that looks fresh, comfortable beds, a TV, spotless en-suite bathroom with a bidet (the water is a little tepid) and breakfast. Internet service costs extra.

I’d read reports that the neighborhood wasn’t the best, but by day it’s fine. And at night, there’s a metro stop just a block away. Next door is a Best Western. Granted, it’s a bit posher … but the price is nearly twice as much.
