Ottimo albergo per qualità-prezzo
Pros:

Check in e check out facili e veloci. Colazione a buffet con poca varietà ma dignitosa e abbondante. Possibilità di utilizzare la piscina (ma non avendola usata non mi sento di esprimere un giudizio) e sala fitness (dotata di un paio di tapis roulant e pesini). Refill di acqua calda e caffè sempre disponibile. Camera pulita, acqua calda velocissima.

Cons:

Arredi un po’ vecchi.

I just needed the room for sleep and to relax, and it served its purpose. I won't stay again though.
Pros:

The beds were comfortable and the AC worked great! Never had to wait long for the elevator.

Cons:

Room was very small for the price. Shower facet leaked which caused poor water pressure. Had an odor I can't describe.

Overall it was ok for the value, the AC was way too pound and annoying though
Pros:

Location and bed comfort

Cons:

The AC was rattling all night long, it’s way too loud and needs to be fixed.

OK for a brief stay.
Pros:

the breakfast was well stocked, lots of choices

Cons:

the carpet in our room was very damp as if it was just steam cleaned but there were small wrappers and bits of rubbish still on the floor. The bathroom was not properly cleaned- there was still hair in the tub and the tile needed a deep clean.

We will book here again!
Pros:

Breakfast was great, varied; Loved the A2 touch of healthy add-ons for the Oatmeal! The woman who kept the breakfast area well stocked and clean, was a delight! Her energy & sunshine added to our enjoyment! All the staff we spoke with were friendly and our room was well attended to everyday without scheduling "requested" as needed for many other hotels these days. Rooms vey quite, clean & comfortable

Cons:

My only reason for the lower point was that the pool was closed for maintenance during our stay.

Puzzling location behind and beside other hotels. Inadequate signage and directions.
Pros:

The only positive was the courteous and helpful front desk staff.

Cons:

The first room (332) had an overwhelming damp smell. The second room (319) smelled fine but had a toilet that stopped working. Although I was assured maintenance had repaired it, it remained inoperable for the second (last) day of my stay. Breakfast room chairs need recovering. Ominous potholes leading to site.

Fair
Pros:

Breakfast was ok-runny scrambled eggs and polish sausage meat. Rest of food was unappetizing. Coffee was very bitter. I could not drink it. Room looked run down but clean. Staff were pleasant
