The hotel is not well maintained and the room I had was so small, I could barely walk around the end and one side of the bed. Curtains that would not close, had a hole in them, and a neon sign on top of an adjacent building could not be blocked out and was fully visible all night. Blond woman at reception in the afternoon and evening was very crabby, gruff, inhospitable. Woman at reception in the morning (brunette) was very pleasant, hispita

Hotel fine but there is a big difference in rooms. Our room was small, cramped, and poor lighting, while our kids room was much larger and nicer. It worked fine, but be aware not all rooms are similar

For the location and price it was great! I do not think I would do this again for more than a night or two. The room was a closet with a bathroom. The hotel is very dated but clean. The staff super friend just one man acted like he could not be bothered and he had the evening shift. Again, for the location it is really good, I would stay again just not or more than a day or two.

The room was small and there was noise from the street during the night (which one could, eventually get used to). The staff were excellent and this is one of the few hotels where I've stayed where (including 4 stars!), if anything was wrong they would sort it almost immediately. Continental breakfast was quite reasonable.It is so central that you can forgive the little sins (just about).

Disliked: Staff & service
With regards to the staff, Miss Maritza the only female receptionist was the only one who displayed respect and courtesy to me as a whole. The others who were males were mean in some point, for reasons i don’t know why. I asked for an early breakfast but it was not considered, even if i requested in advance. but the other caucasian guy was considered for an early breakfast. They could be nicer and can stop mansplaining and just be respectful and fair. People have early excursions and requesting for an early breakfast should not be an isolated thing and should be expected. I also noticed the elevator shaft were so dirty. The housekeeping staff we’re all very nice and accommodating.

Great hotel location

I stayed at the hotel for a week. when I arrived at the hotel around 2:00 pm, the room was available. The room was actually smaller than the one in the photos. The bathroom was serviceable. There was plenty of hot water to use. Due to the size of the bathroom sink and the shelf, there was not enough room to wash my face. The complementary breakfast was wonderful. I loved the scrambled egg and bacon in particular. The staff was friendly. I loved the location of the hotel, steps away from the Duomo. There are bus stops in front of the hotel for some routes. I had a great stay at the hotel. I Would stay there again.

Great value. Super breakfast.

Great location. Great price. Transportation so easy to get around. Fantastic restaurants, cafes, gelato and bakeries close by… and the breakfast at the hotel was really good. It had everything to start the day, including espresso, cappuccino, croissants, eggs, bacon, fresh fruit, juice, granola, cereal, bread, cheese, tomatoes. Our room was a little bit noisy because the tram stop was on the street. So if you are sensitive to noise, ask for a room that is quiet. My husband slept like a rock, but I had trouble sleeping. I would highly recommend this hotel and would stay again.
