Hi Pat, thanks for your appreciation.
Hotel Napoleon is a B&B, is close to Termini Station...not a very nice place in Rome...but it is clean and nice.

When we went there thats where we stayed. Before arriving we heard about the area around the train station not being so nice, but it ended up not being so bad. the hotel was good, the service was great, and it was only about a 5 min walk to the Colosseum.

Rome is great, the architecture is amazing and so is the history. Though in the colessuem they gave us a counterfeit €20 note.

...i'm sorry and many times, in this Forum , i have written that i'm ashamed to be Italian!
We are a population of clowns, "traitors" (see the war...), fraudulent and ignorant: we can have a big heart and, sometimes, a stroke of genious, but the good think are overwhelmed by corruption, Mafia, ignorance. Ultimately, we are a population of "Schettino" (the Captain of Costa Concordia, that while the ship was sinking with thousands of passengers inside, he was already saved with a Moldovan...).
P.S. Have you read the "story" of the houses in front of the Colosseo in this thread? If not...read my friend.

Re: ROMA CAPUT MUNDI (greetings from Rome).

Don't be sorry Charter, it's not you and no country is perfect. You should see the polish politicians claiming someone planted a bomb on the Tu-154 and then the Russians shot the rest.

Re: ROMA CAPUT MUNDI (greetings from Rome).

In Rome exists a church called "Santa Maria Immacolata", placed in Veneto street (the street of "Dolce Vita"); in this church there is a characteristic museum, a cript called "ossuary" where, during the hundreds of years, the Capuchin friars have made sculptures all made of bones! Unfortunately it is not allowed to do photos, but i will show some photos of what i'm talking about:
