Posizione ottima in pieno centro
Pros:

La posuzione, la gentilezza alla reception e la possibilità di cambiare camera mi hanno particolarmente soddisfatto.

Cons:

Migliorerei la qualità della colazione aggiungendo le uova, burro e marmellata e soprattutto del pane siciliano, che è strepitoso, al posto del pancarrè.

For the price, the hotel is good; it’s definitely a solid choice if you’re looking for an affordable place just to sleep
Pros:

Staff was really nice, breakfast was ok and location was great
The bed linen was clean and upon request we immediately received additional towels

Cons:

everything is quite old and needs renovation, the walls are dirty, the bed is wired and moves at the slightest movement, the bathroom is too small and even washing your hair is a problem
it's not very clean, the floors are dirty
