Pros:

La posizione dell'hotel è eccellente, vicino al Centro Storico, al Porto Antico e alla stazione della metropolitana Darsena. Il personale è stato molto gentile e disponibile e la colazione era piuttosto buona.

Cons:

Quando cerco un hotel, filtro sempre le strutture che dispongono di parcheggio. Questo hotel sembrava averne uno, ma non è così: infatti, nelle immediate vicinanze c'è un parcheggio a pagamento che costa circa 24 € al giorno, anche con lo sconto che ci applica l'hotel.

The location. It's a centric place in Genova.
