NO a very clean place. The rooms were 100 years old and look like they have not had an upgrade in 100 years. The shower was smaller than a phone booth. Hallways and carpeting needed a good cleaning. Staff was less than friendly

Perfectly average hotel

Nice enough hotel to the eye and very friendly, polite staff on the reception desk. Bathroom was clean and everything functioned as it should. Air con (heating at least) worked as it should. If you're expecting a modern fresh looking hotel you need to appreciate most hotels in italy are quite old and personally feel it adds to the charm. Downfalls were the bed being quite hard although i appreciate some prefer the firmer mattress, its not for me. The door frame to our room was not fixed and the whole door and frame moved a lot almost like it was held on by the architrave. The room safe had a surcharge to use according to the booklet we were given. Seems strange when every other hotel ive ever stayed in just has a coded safe you can use at your leisure. Breakfast was something to be desired. Not much selection on the day we stayed and didnt seem particularly fresh, we just went out and got breakfast elsewhere.

The staff is extremly friendly and sweet. The property is a jewel in the beautiful Lido island. Beautifully decorated, charming, retro style, it feels like you are in a movie... My parents spendt their hooneymoon there 50 years ago and they told me I would not regret staying there. It was the most perfect decision. I really enjoyed it. Love it!!!!
