Hotel ist in die Jahre gekommen und 54,00 € die Nacht im Kellergeschoß. Ab 6.00 Uhr lief jeden Morgen der Spülautomat in der Küche an. Ich hatte wohl mein Zimmer unmittelbar unter der Küche.

Völlig Ausreichen für kurzen Aufenthalt

Sehr saubere Zimmer, ins gesamt für kurzen Zwischenaufenthalt ist bei diesem Preisleistungsverhältnis nichts auszusetzten. Frühstück etwas spartanisch aber eben typisch für Italien.

Pessimo é dir poco!!

Riassumendo in un unica parola PESSIMO!! L'unica cosa che lo salva é la pisozione. Per il resto da non tornarci. Camere sporche lenzuola macchiate non oso pensare di cosa..staff non assolve alle funzioni di portiere di notte, lasciandoci chiusi fuori l'albergo per quasi due ore in piena notte, le innimerevoli chiamate, suonate al citofono ecc..sono state vane ripeto per circa due ore, mentre fuori pioveva ed era freddo. Dopo questo infinito arco di tempo qualcuno ci ha aperto non degniandosi nemmeno di scusarsi....mai più!!
