Best Western Blu Hotel Roma

great receptionists - helpful, careful, friendly

Friendly staff, good services. Could be a bit less expensive, but overall is ok. Clean rooms, wifi included.

A bit far from the city center.

Hotel is as it is described on booking.com. Breakfast was self service with assortment to choose big enough (English & Continental). In bathroom there was a whirlpool bathtub.

A bit noisy air condition.

The staff was friendly, helpful, and spoke English well. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

For the purpose of sightseeing in Rome on somewhat of a budget, we did not find its location to be nearly as convenient as suggested on the web page. It's true that it is "just" two bus stops away from a major subway/train station, but as somewhat spoiled Americans with very limited Italian, we found the whole bus/metro commute to downtown Rome to be daunting at first; the bus and metro were very crowded much of the time; and that made arriving and departing with luggage (and without a car) a hassle. The neighborhood outside the hotel was primarily residential and not tourist-friendly. It was a nice place to stay but not the best choice for our purposes.
