Surprisingly good!

The hotel was surprisingly good and we were really happy we found this hotel. The staff was super friendly and helped us with the EV-charging station that was free of charge (huge plus for us!). The pool was fine too and the kids really enjoyed it. The breakfast was quite simple but nothing to complain over.

Noisy water pump in the backyard created a disturbance every 20 minutes. Big black mildew spot on the ceiling over the shower. Location unspectacular but a short taxi ride away from the beautiful center of Parma. Helpful staff.

Very comfortable, spotlessly clean and airy air conditioned family room with a large balcony, comfortable beds, nice bathroom and nice pool area. Staff were friendly and helpful, which was much appreciated as this in my experience is not always a given in Italian hotels. Some complaints about location but its only a 20 minute walk into the centre and a regular bus 6 into town until 7ish and the pool makes it well worth it. Taxi back from the Centre was only 8 euros from thextaxi rank in the main Piazza. Nice comfortable hotel, reasonable rates. Cant go wrong. Highly recommended. Only suggestion is a drying rack on the balcony would be useful. Thanks for a lovely stay in the beautiful city of Parma.
