Via Veneto Suites

Room was clean and comfortable. Continental Breakfast was very good. The location was convenient and less than 10 minute walk to Villa Borghese. Front desk helped with taxis, and fares were under 20 euro to the colosseum and Vatican. We used the hotel recommendation for transfer from the airport, and the driver was courteous, on time and great communication.

This B&B is in a secure area, about 2km from the historic centre of Rome. There are several bus route options nearby--keep in mind that Roman public transit is not known for promptness. There is a grocery store on the next block. The place is clean and quiet (other than road noise). Breakfast was plentiful and tasty with continental options like pastries, yogurt, cheese, sliced meats, cereals, bread etc. The room was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom had one of the best showers I've experienced. The only negative was at check-in: we knew we would be charged a 50E fee for being late (after 8pm), but we did not expect to have to pay in cash. The "city tax fee" was also demanded in cash (everywhere else allowed credit). This unexpectedly wiped out our cash and was quite inconvenient.

The staff was nice and friendly. What I suggest is more lights for the rooms. They were kind of dark. They can add stronger light pulps . The breakfast should have a toaster because the bread were served cold. But in general it was good experience, walkable , clean and safe.

The property listing is misleading. It was advertised as a hotel, but in reality, it is not. Staff are only present during limited hours of the day, which makes it inconvenient if you need assistance outside of that timeframe. On top of that, the rooms vary significantly in size, yet they are all charged at the same rate, which feels unfair given the lack of consistency.
