Pros:

Besonders ist das sehr freundliche und zuvorkommende Personal zu erwähnen. Die Lage ist perfekt . Das Frühstück war gut und reichlich. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und ordentlich.
Das Parken in der Garage war günstig, die Anfahrtsbeschreibung per WhatsApp sehr hilfreich. Die Ausfahrt war selbst am Freitag (Wochenmarkt) problemlos.
Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Pros:

Colazione buona (prodotti dolci e salati abbondanti e di buona qualità in particolare brioches piccoline ma molto morbide e fresche ripiene e vuote).
Suppellettili e mobilio discreto: datato e non in ottime condizioni però decoroso.

Cons:

Ammodernerei un po' di più l'allestimento generale.

Pros:

Marguerita and the rest of the staff were very helpful and friendly. They went out of their way to provide an exceptional service. The hotel is very clean, the view from my room to the upper old town was beautiful and the buffet breakfast was excellent. I definitely recommend others to lodge here.
