Pros:

The location was great given we were there for the archaeological site and it’s across the street.

Cons:

My room had weird scuffs all over the walls making it look really dirty, the bed frames are also dirty and stained, the bed was uncomfortable and the sheets were scratchy. You can also hear every single thing other guest are doing, at one point I thought someone else was unlocking my door and not theirs. I booked two nights and left after one. The staff however was very nice.

Great location, but that’s where the greatness ends
Pros:

No better location. Directly across from the entrance to the archaeological site. Nice view of the archaeological site entrance and a sliver of area view. Adequate breakfast. Friendly staff. Hate to say anything bad about this place because I truly believe they tried their best, but they don’t have much to work with.

Cons:

Really unacceptable in terms of upkeep. I paid extra for a good room with a nice view, which it had, but there’s really nothing much else nice to say. Bathroom smelled of sewage and vinegar (at least they’re trying to keep it clean). Sheets felt like sandpaper. Torn, tattered, and stained bedding. Cheap, old furniture. Honestly just gross. This hotel is desperately in need of proper upkeep and significant remodeling. I would not stay here again, and I do not recommend this hotel. Honestly, it’s better to stay further away from the site and come into town for the archaeological site. We originally booked two nights, but left after the first night, forfeiting the fees of the second night. Sadly, we just couldn’t stay a moment longer.

Primera oportunidad bien. La segunda regular.
Pros:

La ubicación, el trato del personal, la limpieza, las instalaciones de uso colectivo.

Cons:

Estuve en dos oportunidades durante mi viaje. En la primera estuve 5 noches, en una habitación muy aceptable y cómoda. Sin embargo, en la segunda oportunidad (6 días después de la primera), para pasar una noche en la que me retiré a las 3 de la mañana para ir al aeropuerto terminando mi viaje, me asignaron una habitación demasiado pequeña y sin ventanas, con una cama cuyas maderas crujían en todo momento, dificultando el descanso. Además, se escuchaban todos las actividades de los dos baños aledaños a la habitación.

Hotellin kohdalla sijainti korvasi joitakin huoneeseen liittyviä puutteita.
Pros:

Hyvä sijainti ravintoloiden, kauppojen ja Herculaneumin raunioiden lähellä.

Cons:

Aamiainen suppea, usein jokin tarjottavista loppu. Hotelli kaipaisi kunnostusta esim. kylpyhuone.
