Situated at the end of a narrow road filled with huge
garbage bins whose stench mingles with ?jasmine growing on boundaries of apartments.
Buliding is modern clean,rooms are Ok.
The management seems to be on hard days cutting corners,light incorridors go off in 15 seconds leaving it in darkness,AC is not swtitched on when it is everywhere else.
The complimentary breakfast is miserly just bread and butter,milk hidden away with no breakfast cereals and cold meat or cheese.Stingy real stingy.
The staff is bored ,on edge , avoid meeting your eyes unfriendly
It is far from the Rome city center,105 city bus service though is good but takes 45 minutes overcrowded.
The area seems to be overrun by Bangladesh immigrants and downscale,industrial type activity no tourists visible
has parking and is near an airport not Da vinci , the main one though

We stayed 4 nights at Hotel Jonico and i must say that it was absolutely terrible. The first room we were given smelt terribly of smoke. We asked for a non-smoking room, only to be told there were none. The second room was slightly better, but still smelt. The room was small but fairly clean, however the bathroom was full of mildew, from the shower mat to the ceiling, was covered in mildew. The breakfasts were a total disappointment, being only fruitjuice, coffee, biscuits and sweet buns. It never changed at all in the four days we were there. The worst was that we were totally ripped off with two phone calls (1 to South Africa and 1 to London). We were charged 130 Euros (In Venice, the 'same' calls cost us 16 Euros). Via e-mail, I have asked for a breakdown for over a month, including Renato Rossi, the hotel director, with NO response. Absolutely disgraceful. The hotel is also a hour's bus trip form central Rome.

As I mentioned, Hotel is horrible. The main reasons, among others, for that conclusion are:
1. really, really, really far away from city centre
2. very, very poor breakfast (lets say no breakfast)
3. unkind working staff

First of all, you should never book this hotel because of his location. You will need at least one hour and 25 min to city centre. By the way, bus is always full, but always. You will have to share the space in bus with a lot of people who are not so polite. Driving from hotel to city centre and than go back (the last one is around midnight) will ‘cost’ you 3 hours. You will be nervous and unwilling to do the same next day. Or maybe you like torture?!!!

Second thing is breakfast. Just one sentence is enough regarding this remark. NO BREAKFAST!! Some bread with artificial jam and juice. Do you like that????

Third, staffs who works during the night is not polite. During the day situation is better.

All in all, if you don’t want to spoil your holiday in beautiful city, such as Rome, you should never book this hotel!!!

All the best,

Staff were rude and generally unhelpful. Hotel was too far from city 45min to 1h20min depending on traffic. Got a weekly bus pass from newsagents. Fantastic restaurant across from bus stop called El Patio ate there every night food was great and quite cheap.
