Only good review I have is the bed, as I needed a good night sleep. Everything else was very poor. Reception on arrival were slow miserable and not helpful with no enthusiasm. Expensive small glass aperitivo from the “bar” and we could not drink them as they tasted so bad. The glasses were still on the table a few hrs later. The food was awful.. rubbery and burnt. How can you serve thick rubbery veg and tough chicken with burnt chips at a 4*? as well as the staff with no enthusiasm. Max 2*

It’s Ok.

The hotel has plenty of parking and we were among the crowd in town for a track day at Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari. The entrance area is a little run down and needs new carpet, but the check in was quick and easy and the bar is nice. The hotel restaurant is average and I wish I had ordered something other than the Griliata Mista Di Carne. The breakfast was good and offered a good variety with quality food, but the room is a little small. Supposedly there is another breakfast area on the ground floor. The view from the 10th floor breakfast room was nice. The room was really spacious and included a king sized bed. It was a little hot for me, so we had to sleep with the window open, which meant we had to listen to people yelling and the 3 AM sport bike racing through the city. You have no control over the temperature. The staff were fantastic and very helpful. The bathroom had good water pressure and plenty of hot water.
