Alberta and her husband run the seven-room Hotel Paba as if it were one of their own. From the black-and-white carpet to the elegant (if a tad kitsch) furnishings, the hotel feels inspired.
The seven rooms are named from their whimsical décor. For example, the "Imperial Suite" contains an imposing poster of Julius Ceaser and opens to a mini, Romanesque balcony overlooking Via Cavour. The "Lovers' Nest" and "Honey Moon" rooms are bedecked in movie posters from Hollywood "kiss flicks" such as "Roman Holiday." The "Reminds" room is reminiscent of crazy college days: an "Animal House" poster hangs on the well along with a photo of John Belushi chugging a bottle of whiskey.
Regardless of theme, all rooms and bathrooms are clean and cozy. There is no breakfast lounge, but Alberta will deliver your coffee and brioche in the morning. And with the Colosseum just around the corner, there's no reason to dally over breakfast anyway.
