Economy hotel…. Uncomfortable beds. Great location !!!!
Staff was very nice.
First of all, I would like to thank all the hotel staff very much. They were very friendly and warm-blooded. My room was very clean and it was very close to the city centre. It is definitely a hotel that I can recommend for your short-term holidays
Very quiet place. Close enough to the center and to the train station.

Staff was great, very informative and nice. The room was fine but the bed was very hard. They gave me some extra pillows so that was really nice. AC worked well and the location is walkable to many restaurants.
L’intero hotel e’ in ristrutturazione esterna quindi sei prigioniero in stanza. Non puoi nemmeno aprire una finestra.
Assenza totale di decorazione, sembra di stare in una stanza di ospedale.
Breakfast appena decente.
In stanza, sanitario che si muoveva dal pavimento, tenda doccia a brandelli, assenza totale di shampoo per 4 giorni di fila.
Reception molto gentile e disponibile.
Ubicazione centrale

L’hotel e’ in ristrutturazione esterna, quindi praticamente non puoi aprire le finestre.
Chiusi dentro.
Bagno senza shampoo per 4 giorni, gabinetto che si muoveva, tenda doccia a brandelli.
Decorazione inesistente. Sembra un ospedale.
Buona logistica, reception disponibile, colazione accettabile
