Si può migliorare

L'Hotel è nella zona industriale, in una posizione tranquilla, raggiungibile solo con l'auto. Purtroppo nella stanza n. 24 era stata spruzzata una grande quantità di profumo per ambienti allo scopo, vano, di coprire un fortissimo odore di fumo, odore acre che nel giro di mezz'ora è terribilmente riemerso. Si sottolinea che la stanza era per non fumatori. La colazione self service andrebbe migliorata, in particolare con qualche accorgimento per i prodotti confezionati che forse per il piano interrato e la presenza di umidità avevano un sapore sgradevole. Buona invece la cortesia del personale che si è scusato sia per l'odore di fumo che per la mancanza di WiFi, ormai da quindici giorni, dovuta al maltempo ed imputabile solo al Gestore della rete.

Handy hotel south of Rome.

We were just there overnight. It is close to main roads to Rome and Anzio, but it is very quiet. It was inexpensive and the breakfast was generous. No views but wifi and parking excellent and free.

Disliked: Staff & service

Hotel economico senza troppi comfort

La zona non è indubbiamente delle migliori, anche la strada su cui si trova l'hotel è in cattivo stato. Ad ogni modo nelle vicinanze sono disponibili i servizi essenziali come il centro commerciale Iper Panorama. Le stanze non sono recentissime e le coperte sono assolutamente da rinnovare. Anche la presenza dei caloriferi con gli umidificatori (nonostante il condizionatore) lascia un po' stupiti oggi giorno. Il bagno è in discreto stato, migliore che in tanti hotel di pari categoria. La colazione lascia un po' a desiderare. Complessivamente direi che il prezzo è equo per il servizio offerto.

Piacevole soggiorno

Ho soggiornato con il mio ragazzo per una notte in questo hotel prendendo un'offerta last-minute. Ottima accoglienza del personale, stanze molto pulite con cuscini e letto comodi!! Colazione inoltre molto abbondante. Lo consiglio vivamente. Se dovessi trovare dei contro, cambierei l'arredamento della reception che risulta antiquato. Per il resto, tutto molto positivo!
