decent stay overall

excellent locationfriendly staffopen toilethard pillows
The location was excellent, i found it very convenient. the staff were also friendly and helpful, ESPECIALLY when recommending places to eat. the evening aperitivo was a nice bonus. I enjoyed trying new drinks.
The room i stayed in was not ideal. the toilet and bath area was too open, i was like there was a lack of privacy. the pillows were also too hard. I would have liked another option.

Acceptable stay with inconveniences

central locationold stainsstreet noise
The hotel is near the main market and city center which was okay.
The room looked not as nice as what I expected from pictures. There was old stains on the walls, it really lowered the value. there was an open toilet and it was not private, I am not used to it. I also heard a lot of street noise from my room on the fourth floor.
