superb location and service

perfect locationfriendly stafftiny room
I really enjoyed the perfect location. it was just a short walk from the train station and the duomo. the staff were super friendly. they gave us a hand when we left our luggage for a tour. This made things easy.
i paid for an upgraded room. it was still tiny. we could barely fit our luggage in the room. i had to move luggage around just to get out of bed.

a slightly underwhelming stay

stuffy roomlimited breakfast
the air conditioning really struggled to keep up. the room felt stuffy, especially during the day. i also found the breakfast selection a bit limited. i was expecting more variety for a place of this caliber. the hard bed made it difficult to sleep soundly. the eggs were too salty.

adequate stay, some issues noted

inadequate air conditioninglimited dairy-free options
The room size was smaller than expected for the price i paid. i found the air conditioning inadequate. The room remained stuffy. the promised intercontinental breakfast did not fully cater to dietary needs, specifically lacking dairy-free options i had hoped for.
