Shabby chic. I could feel the springs through the top of the mattress. I had no hot water for the duration of my stay despite mentioning it to reception. 9am breakfast on Sunday seem to catch them by surprise as food ran out and was not replenished. However, the building is a lovely period edifice and the staff charming, if, in the case of the hot water, ineffective. It needs a refurb I wouldn't stay there again until it's had one.

Great hotel

This stay is part of a longer trip. The hotel is excellent. Luggage room if you arrive early as we did. Location is in the old area so a 5 min walk to piazza magiorre and the tourist information office. Breakfast was included and it was great. All in all, wish I’d have booked a longer stay.

This hotel is very close by to the plaza as well as lots of different places to dine. They had their own parking garage which was nice. The lobby was clean, and the staff were friendly. The things we did not like was that our room was right above a movie theater so we could hear the movie while we were sleeping. The shower would not drain the water well and there was a fan in the room that didn't work. We didn't stay here long so it wasn't an issue for us but for others, I could see these being a little disappointing. It was in a great location. The property did not communicate with us prior to our stay unlike all other properties we stayed at in Italy. Although, it was easy to check in, it would have been nice to have more communication.

This is not anywhere near a 3 star hotel, more like a 1 star. The property needs a huge overchaul. The carpet in our was disgusting, with stains everywhere. The bathroom was at least clean but had an odd odour. I’m sure the cleaning staff do their best with what they have. There wasn’t a fridge or coffee pot to be found. The bed was ok with fresh linens but an old bed cover. No one uses them anymore because they are too hard to keep clean. The only redeemable feature was the location as it was right in the centre of town.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was basic but clean. Stayed in February / March so not sure how good the aircon would be in summer? Otherwise a great location and everything is within walking distance.

Pay more, stay somewhere else.

Not usually one to complain, but this hotel was extremely poor. Plug sockets didn’t work, towel rack hanging off, completely depressing room in the attic and looks like it hasn’t been updated since 1970. There’s old furniture stacked up on every floor, pushed to one side. Elevator wasn’t working, so I called room service, just once, and was told to use the vending machine on floor 2, cash only, for water. Staff were nice, but the hotel needs a massive revamp. Pay more, stay somewhere else.

The facility service was impeccable. They seamlessly arranged transportation to a hidden gem restaurant in San Giovanni, Osteria del Mirasole, and facilitated my transfer to the airport. However, the cleanliness of the washroom could use some improvement. Overall, my stay was peaceful and comfortable.

I loved this accommodation until 7 PM when I found out there’s a movie theater next-door. Then it was VERY loud in my room. My room even shook during the action scenes. This went on until about 11 PM but I go to bed at 9 o’clock. This is an excellent hotel for anyone who goes to bed at 11 o’clock or later. Perfect Location near the historic downtown, close to the train station, lots of restaurants around.
