Hotel Giada - Rome, Italy 

The Hotel Giada is near Rome Termini and that should of rung alarm bells but thought the location would be handy however my travel agent said it was 3 star and sufficent for 3 nights. Don't book any hotels if you can help it around the termini. The reasons are it is very dangerous at night sirens going 247 so noisy you cant have a very good sleep. The taxi drivers waiting at the Termini just want to rip you off\. They wanted us to pay them 16 euros to take us 2 blocks away to our hotel. Thankfully we had the common sense. The hotel room was sizeable with a no mini bar not much hot water, stains on the celiing in the bathroom. The breakfast included you should give a huge miss it was a few bread rolls with a few condiments such as nutella. The juice was watered down it tasted terrible. There was a ladder and paint tins about. This would be rated the worst stay and would steer clear of this hotel. The moment I got there I did not feel vey safe. Give it a big miss - should never be rated 3 star only 2 if that. Happy to show you evidence if required.
