Excellent Location and Good Breakfast

great locationamazing honeycracked sink
The hotel is located on the main street near the Piazza Maggiore. Everything was an easy, short walk. The breakfast included a frame with honeycomb and amazing fresh honey. Cafe doppio was also perfect.
The room only had one glass, though it was a twin room. There was no kettle available in the room. I also noticed a cracked sink in the bathroom.

the location was acceptable, close to the train station and the historic center.
The breakfast room staff seemed overworked during busy times. I noticed service could have been more attentive. the lack of variety in the breakfast options was noticeable. I had anticipated more from a 4-star hotel. i found the selection basic and not as fancy as i expected.

Convenient and Clean

central locationtrain stationbreakfast buffetold shower
The location is CENTRAL. I walked to the main attractions and the train station easily. Many restaurants nearby sold bolognese dishes. The breakfast buffet I ate was very good, offering many options.
The shower in my room needs UPDATING. The shower head was old. It made my showers less comfortable.

The hotel is near the ZTL limit, giving you direct access to the city center, a very advantageous spot to explore by foot. Its situation allows easy commutes. The main street is a direct path to the main square and landmarks.
