Ok
Pros:

Molto carino, ben arredato e pulito, dotato di ogni comfort, dai prodotti da bagno al bollitore e i caffè solubili. Personale molto gentile e disponibile, la hall è presidiata giorno e notte.

Cons:

La posizione non è delle migliori, il quartiere è rumoroso e abbastanza degradato e la notte sul marciapiede fuori l’hotel dormono i senzatetto

Good stay!
Pros:

Modern, clean room and bathroom with (almost) all of the amenities you'd need. Staff members are nice and accommodating.

Cons:

Not quite sure how the hot water works in the bathroom, so it was cold showers all the way for two days for me.

A clean and nice place
Pros:

The place was super clean and nice. Staff was nice, bed comfortable, space to hang clothes, fridge. Location is also close to centre and you have restaurants, banks, massage parlors close.

Cons:

Because it is close to a big street you can hear the traffic and the bed light was not working.
