Buena relación calidad precio
Pros:

La ubicación estupenda y la relación calidad/precio buena. Te dan desayuno café/té, bollería, leche y cereales. Y la ducha era fantástica.

Cons:

El edificio es antiguo y el mobiliario también. La pintura de las paredes un poco descascarillada. Mi cama sin queja alguna, pero mi madre dijo que su colchón tenía bollos

Good enough
Pros:

Great value, perfect location for us.

Cons:

Shower was cold. Beds not very comfortable, especially the pillows. But we chose this place because it was cheaper than every other option, so I was happy enough/didn't have high expectations.

Very nice, but could have been more comfortable
Pros:

It was just 30 mins walk (10-15 mins bus ride) away from the city center. It had the most beautiful garden to sit and chill.

Cons:

Our room almost had no window, it took very little light. Also the breakfast area was functioning only between 8 and 10AM, which I understand, but the person who worked there kinda told me off for trying to make myself tea there in the middle of the day, which was weird. He told me to bring it from my room which was 2 floors up, and I burned my hand while trying to carry the cup.

Pros:

Check in automatico

Cons:

Struttura vecchia, colazione fai da te con pochissima varietà, stanza al secondo piano nel sottotetto con parecchi rumori dovuti al riscaldamento e alle tubature. L’unico lucernario con tenda oscurate mezza rotta. Bagno pulito ma lavandino intasato. Non è previsto il servizio di pulizia giornaliero salvo il cambio di asciugamani solo su richiesta. Il letto non veniva rifatto le tazzine sporche rimanevano sul tavolo e l’acqua se terminata non veniva ricaricata. Posizione comoda distante 10/15 min a piedi dal centro. Qualità prezzo pessima.
