Given its central location this hotel is competitively priced - but it shows. Rooms are quite basic, we went for the 'romantic' package but the basket was average, and the air conditioning unit was so old and loud I couldn't use it and has a dreadful nights sleep. After complaining about three times we eventually got moved rooms. No elevator... More

Stayed here 3 nights. Thankfully not more. On a very small positive note, it is only 10 minutes direct walk from the main train station. But you would pass at least 50 hotels to get there. It is close to the Duomo. Right. We booked directly with the hotel on their own website vs. using an internet booking service -... More

What we were really happy of was the location which is perfect for those who travel by train - it is half way between Duomo and... More

The location was the best feature of this hotel (bus station, many sites). Also my wife's and my calves are stronger for climbing several flights of stairs everytime we wanted to go to our room between site seeing (lots, and lots of spiral stairs - no elevator in a six story hotel!) No gym or swimming pool in the hotel,... More
