Hotel Miami in Rome: Good Deal Good Price Good Breakfast

Hotel –

Via Nazionale 230, Rome, Italy

Stayed at this place in Rome, Italy.........

The location was perfect for getting around in Rome and seeing the sights.

Really liked the reasonable price but what we particularly enjoyed was the breakfast.

A huge selection of cereals and fruits and cold cuts including a delicious selection of cheese.

We would definitely stay there again.

Yes, it was very fun to look out of the very tall, very well traditionally decorated windows onto Via Nazionale. Plenty of restaurants..all within a good price range and walking distance...and the food....deliciously unforgettable.

Reasonably priced leather jackets to die for less than a block away.

Yes..we would stay there again and recommend it highly.

Why did we stay there....price, location and recommended on trip advisor.

Hotel Miami

Rome is very fun and easy....this hotel is also within a few blocks walking distance from the drop off location at the central train station of the airport bus.

The best thing about Rome--plenty of extraordinary food, close by and inexpensive.

Thank Goodness Geraldo is Back!!!!!

Geraldo Rivera--the boys are back in town

The one thinking Republican on the planet has returned to his radio show on WABC New York Talk Radio after his much needed vacation to Rome..........I'm jealous.

Seriously, my daughter wasn't in Rome 5 minutes before she said......have you seen the leather jackets here? I just feel like it would be wrong to leave Rome without actually getting one.

Back to G/jay........got in a good go round with Alan Dershowitz about the recent collective punishment of the Palestinians from Israel.

My question.........why is Gaza/Palestine an occupied country. How does anyone do anything.

Geraldo.....why not have someone like Doc Jazz on your show for an interview. He is trying to bring the world together with music....and he is a surgeon...an average working successful individual trying to go on with the activities of daily living and suffering the trials and tribulations of occupation. Lets chat with this regular work-a-day guy and see what he says. Lets see......Doc Jazz.....what is your take on the current situation. What are you good ideas to stop the violence.

Also we got to hear from my favorite talking cop, Bernie Kerik. Love to hear his take on things.....my favorite part about Bernie.......he always speaks with a certain compassion towards police officers and the guys on the street in a way that is loving and refreshing. It sends a good message out there for the police and the citizens. Talking about stop and frisk and how it affects the officers walking the beat in New York City today.

Noam Laden, news/jay and fellow talker on the show shared with us his agreement and disagreement with Geraldo Rivera about the situation in Palestine since he does have family in Israel.

This Israel/Palestine situation is extremely difficult. Geraldo said the one way for sure to wreck a media career in NYC is to bash the actions of Israel.

At the end of the day, Geraldo Rivera, is not afraid to stand up for what he believes in and suffer the heated radio back lash.

All the bashers that I had to endure while he was gone....Mad man Mendte, Stunningly beautiful and successful and stunningly incorrect Judge Jeanine Pirro; it was exhausting to hear them yell and shout. Judge Napolitano was okay with his back and forth over police actions in the city.

The home grown talent of Rita Cosby and Noam Laden are always enjoyable as they can think, talk and disagree all at the same time without getting angry....who knew.......

Again asking the age old question.........will the talk show inspire new thoughts with chat and info about current events or shall we adopt the opinions of the shouting host.

I'm sticking with Geraldo Rivera on this one.

from the ronnie republic radio round-up.........and thank you to Larry Mendte for being my friend on facebook......welcome you opinion and thoughts.......cl
