Nice hotel with very friendly staff. Room was nice and comfy. great location and close to the center Breakfast was just okay, a bit of overcooked food. Definitely take the parking option they suggest you since there is no way you can find any parking around.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Una stanza polverosa, veramente molto sciatta, dove si sentiva l'odore della polvere appena entrata e della mancanza di ricambio dell'aria malgrado i soffitti fossero particolarmente alti. Veramente una sciatteria mai vista in vita mia, forse uno dei posti peggiori dove ho dormito, considerando anche il prezzo superiore ai 200 euro a notte Non tornerò mai più in questa struttura. Guardate la foto per vedere la polvere che c'era sul comodino.

The staff at the hotel was super friendly and helpful. The area was really nice and quiet. The room was more outdated than we expected but it did the job and the hotel itself was nice. The area around it though was all graffiti and not what we expected. It’s a shame really.
