Not sure why it's only rated as a 2 star. We stayed for 1 night with 2 rooms. It was very comfortable and super clean. Our rooms were very large, had a fridge, desk, etc. I would have no concern staying there again!

The room was spacious and adequate for four people. Staff was amicable and room was overall clean. Location was very central and we walked to the Duomo in ten minutes. One unexpected issue was that it was tricky to get to the hotel by car due to the restricted zones you aren’t allowed to drive into. And, once you get to the hotel, it turns out that parking is located at another hotel. Not far (maybe two blocks away) but, again, tricky to get to and would have been nice to know from the get-go. Also, during the second/last night the A/C broke. E think it was something to do with the fan as it started banging so loudly that all four of us woke up around 2:15 or so. We had to turn it off completely (hello stuffiness and heat) and for the next hour it continued to make noises every two or so minutes. I didn’t go back to sleep until 5:45am…. With a 6:15am wake, that was really inconvenient. Probably nobody’s fault, but very unfortunate. Interestingly, my SIL told me later that their fan didn’t work either…she stayed in the same hotel.

Room furnishing a little spare but functional/ could have used a small refridgerator. Window effectively soundproofed against bus traffic on Via Ventisette. Nice continental breakfast buffet, though unexpected to charge on top of room fee for it. biggest complaint was the lack of clear signage at the entry door, arrows were confusing and unclear that we were seeking small buzzer.

The room was okay for what we paid. But we came in late and the person at the desk took as little of his time as he could to explain parking and our room access. I had messaged the hotel to get specific parking instructions before our arrival but got no reply. This guy just seemed like he couldn’t care less.

Nice stay

The building is old, and the elevator is also old and small. Both outside and inside look old, but the rooms are very clean and new. The shower works well, and the air conditioner is good. The place is in a quiet area with a park in front. It is a little far from the train station, and it takes about 10 minutes to walk to the tourist area. But it is a nice place if you want a quiet night.
