Despite the initial appearance of the hotel, with its small lobby and breakfast rooms needing modernization, my stay was comfortable. The rooms provided ample space for two people and luggage, with plenty of storage space and hangers. However, the bathroom was a bit cramped which is common in many 3-star hotels in Europe and Italy where I've stayed during my vacation.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although clean and comfortable, had an old box TV that didn't work, making it feel more like a cell than a hotel room. The location was convenient, near the train station, but in a slightly run-down area. The service was friendly and helpful despite noisy hallway activities. The dining experience offered a variety of breakfast options and the facilities were satisfactory.

My room wasn't too bad, although it was on the 2nd floor overlooking a side street with noisy waste bins being emptied every night. The staff were super friendly and always ready to help, making my stay comfortable.
