Very clean and spacious room and clean bathroom, Very quiet and a 30minute walk from the main train station and most of the the attractions in the city. There was a nice continental breakfast too and the room was made available early for checking in as we had arrived earlier than expected. There were a number of restaurants and cafes nearby

My flight got delayed so I showed up late around 10:30p at the hotel on Tue, Nov 11 2025. The front desk was so so so rude that he was mad at me that he asked me why I came in late and I explained to him that my flight got delayed. I apologized him several times and he he was staring at me and said "Sorry, Sorry, sorry.. Sorry for what?" He also said he would not want to accept me next time. He treated me like a homeless guy or garbage. I felt so embarrassing. He asked me to pay 9 euro for city tax and I gave him a 20 euro bill and he was so mad and raised his voice "I want exact 9 euro" Luckily I was able to find some changes to sum up to 9 euros. It was a most terrible experience that I I had ever had at hotel in my life. Why in the world there is a service man who treats customer terribly like that? I was so sad.

Not as advertised

Disappointed in this hotel, despite advertising they have multi lingual staff, free onsite parking and valet parking, they don’t have any of these. The rooms are clean and the terrace was nice to sit on but the whole place is generally fairly old and run down.

Unsafe dangerous despicable

Shocking absolutely not as advertised unsafe for solo travellers no lounge no bar as advertised. Staff rude, dirty do not speak . Refused a refund. Put on the phone to a random person who told me to Fox off!! Stay away!!! I would doubt any of the reviews are genuine. No point did I feel safe? This place needs to be removed from Hotels.com if you’re a single female travelling alone do not go anywhere near it.

Very little communication, couldn’t even sleep there one of the nights because we were locked out and no one will give you the code when you check in you have to ask. The second night I was woken up to banging on the front door at 3 am by another couple people being locked out. They had the key code and it still didn’t work. Bathrooms are not clean. Spent a lot of money just to sleep outside the first night, the next day when we finally got into bed we only had a few hours of sleep before the staff was unlocking our door and trying to come in while we were asleep. Very unprofessional 0/10. Don’t stay here, the Casaldo’s rooms next door is way better and let us sleep in their spa because they had no rooms for the night and kept us off the street.
