charming stay by the river

modern room clean room short walk
i found the rooms modern and very clean the bed felt comfortable. the location was great near the river i could reach the duomo in a short walk. i appreciated the thoughtful welcome notes and the treats for the marathon runner in our group. the staff also surprised a member of our group with a birthday note and prosecco.
the wifi did not work well this was inconvenient. it made planning difficult and was frustrating during downtime. i hope the issue is addressed quickly to improve the guest experience.
