Rooms are quite basic, we went for the 'romantic' package but the basket was average, and the air conditioning unit was so old and loud I couldn't use it and has a dreadful nights sleep. After complaining about three times we eventually got moved rooms. No elevator... More

Stayed here 3 nights. Thankfully not more. On a very small positive note, it is only 10 minutes direct walk from the main train station. But you would pass at least 50 hotels to get there. It is close to the Duomo. Right. We booked directly with the hotel on their own website vs. using an internet booking service -... More

This hotel has nothing to recommend it. NO lift, we had to drag our heavy bags up 3 flights of stairs. Room okay but shabby. Bathroom okay, but shower stall had mould on ceiling and peeling paint - yuk. The breakfast room was shabby and the breakfast was awful. We even had to pay for wifi, which a lot of... More

We booked this hotel because it was promoted on a booking site as a special price offer. The room was different from the pictures on the internet, significantly less cozy and beautiful although clean. What we were really happy of was the location which is perfect for those who travel by train - it is half way between Duomo and... More

It is a very good location with a lot of shops and restaurants. It is also very close to the central station and easy to go around. The hotel is clean and quiet, but the air conditioner is not in the correct position, therefore, the room is not cold as it should be.
