I didn’t recommend it
Pros:

Only staff and location was not bad

Cons:

Every time I left the hotel, I was required to leave my room key at the reception, which was very inconvenient. I had all of my personal belongings, including cash and other valuables, in my room. Because of this policy, I never felt comfortable leaving them in the hotel, so I had to carry my cash and valuables with me every time I went out.

As you know, pickpocketing is quite common in Italy, so I felt stressed and worried whenever I was walking around the city with all of my valuable belongings. This made my stay much less comfortable and caused unnecessary anxiety throughout my trip.

The room itself was also very small and uncomfortable. The mattress was extremely hard, and the pillows were very uncomfortable, making it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. Whenever I took a shower, after about five minutes the water would start pooling on the bathroom floor and overflow out of the shower area.

There were also numerous tiny “little friends” visiting both my room and my bed, which was completely unacceptable. On top of that, there was a bright green light on the wall that stayed on throughout the night, making it difficult to sleep properly. The air conditioning was very weak and did not cool the room effectively.

The only positive aspect of my stay was the staff, who were very friendly and helpful. The location is also good. However, the amount I paid for two nights was absolutely not justified by the quality of this hotel. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend staying here.
