Please Do not Ruin Your Holiday Buying This Book August 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As the other reviewer has said this book is is a nightmare. Badly laid out, with no map of the city overall making it difficult to understand where you are. The restaurants that were tried in Bracciano were both disappointing. The shopping section was also poor - the major shopping mall at the termini was no more than you would get at the airport. Poorly written over complicated - the book lost its credibility and therfore ending up in the bin before it completey ruined our holiday. Do not buy!!
Difficult to use July 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am usually a fan of the Rough Guides range of travel books. However I found this one really difficult to use. The maps didn't cross reference easily meaning you had to hunt through each separate section using another map to find what you were looking for. Trying to find a recommended restaurant was almost impossible.
On the plus side the introduction was very useful and details regarding rules and regulations for the more religious areas of Rome were excellent.
There are some good hints and tips in here but overall the book was too complicated to use and as such stayed in the hotel room.
