Pros:

This hotel met my needs exactly. I am a man traveling alone. I wanted to be near the center of town, the Piazza. I wanted a simple room that was clean and had a low price. The hotel was all of these. They did not have breakfast. The staff was helpful. My needs were limited, but this hotel turned out to be a perfect choice.

Pros:

This is a 3-star hotel, and it matches that classification. The location is truly excellent – it couldn’t be better. If your room faces the piazza, it can be quite noisy until around 4 AM, but once the windows are properly closed, you can sleep peacefully.
The hotel is very clean, including the bathrooms, which are well maintained and have a spacious, comfortable shower.
The building is historical, which probably explains the lack of an elevator – something that is definitely noticeable if you have heavy luggage or mobility issues.
Breakfast is not served inside the hotel, but at a nearby partner café. It’s very basic: just a coffee and a croissant, nothing more.
Overall, a decent experience. I’m giving it 4 stars.
____________________________________________

Hotel classificato come 3 stelle, e lo rispecchia.
La posizione è davvero perfetta, impossibile chiedere di meglio. Se la camera è con vista sulla piazza, può essere piuttosto rumorosa fino alle 4 del mattino, ma chiudendo bene le finestre si riesce a dormire tranquillamente.
L’hotel è molto pulito, anche i bagni sono ben curati, con una doccia ampia e comoda.
L’edificio è storico, e questo spiega probabilmente l’assenza dell’ascensore – una mancanza che si sente, soprattutto con bagagli o per chi ha difficoltà motorie.
La colazione non viene servita in hotel, ma in un bar convenzionato nelle vicinanze. È molto semplice: solo un caffè e un cornetto, niente di più.
Nel complesso, esperienza ok, darò 4 stelle.

Pros:

Es gab kein Aufzug, 65 Stufen in den dritten Stock mit Koffern. Es gab keine Parkplätze obwohl diese beworben wurden. Es gab keinen Frühstücksraum obwohl dieser beworben wurde. Das Frühstück gab es in einer Kaffeebar auf dem Platz. Ein Getränk und ein Kaffeestück waren das erweiterte regionale Frühstück. Der Föhn im Zimmer war defekt; die Dusche war nur für schlanke Menschen begehbar die einen BMI von unter 25 haben. Die Zudecken waren teilweise mit Flecken, zerrissen und sehr alt. Positiv waren die Lage, die Freundlichkeit des Personals und die funktionierende Klimaanlage.

Sentralt. Nostalgisk. Rimelig. Praktisk.
Pros:

Åpnet for om lag 160 år siden, og har nok derfor hatt sin storhetstid for en god stund siden, men det er svært sentralt beliggende og det er hyggelig service. Lite varmtvann i dusjen. Litt harde senger. Men et svært hyggelig opphold sett i forhold til prisen.

Disappointed and disgusted!!
Pros:

The location was good, close to piazza del duomo the main square, and it was very
convenient if using public transportation.
This hotel is not a 3 star as stated on the
website site, it’s a 2 star. The breakfast was
at a bar close to the hotel. It was only a coffee and croissant and not a full breakfast as stated on your web site. There was no safe in the room and the web stated that there was a safe. The bathroom was disgusting, not very clean , dirty tiles, the
shower was just a corner with a small shower curtain, the water would overflow the rest of the bathroom. I very disappointed with this hotel , I would never here again.

I’d rather sleep in the car.
Pros:

Reception did not speak any form of English. We arrived by car, called ahead to get directions to the hotel parking lot (which we were informed they had) and they said something in Italien and hung up. They don’t have any parking spots.
We slept directly on the springs in the madras, the floor was more comfortable.
There was mould in the bathroom, the inventory was crappy and looked like it was about to fall apart. A bad hotel, way overpriced.
