My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location is very convenient, within walking distance to the city center and major tourist sites. The rooms were quite spacious but lacked proper soundproofing, leading to disturbances from outside noise. The service was very friendly and helpful overall, although there were some attempts to negotiate feedback in exchange for cheap breakfast. The dining experience was satisfactory with a typical Italian breakfast spread. The value for money was acceptable considering the location.

I can't get over how amazing the breakfast was! Scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, including fragola, a delightful selection of dolce, and that coffee - just outstanding. On the downside, the room wasn't the one I originally booked, and unfortunately, the air conditioning is not soundproof, making the street noise quite loud.
