The desk attendant was helpful. they held my bags after checkout so i could explore until my evening train. the location was great. It was a short walk to the piazza. i really appreciated the convenience.
the walls of the room were dirty. the beds were uncomfortable and damaged! the bathroom should be cleaner. i think an iron would have been helpful.
