clean rooms but very bad sound insulation and overpriced.
Pros:

I liked the breakfast and cleanliness.

Cons:

I didn’t like the bad sound insulation and woke up many times at night because of noise in the corridor, neighboring rooms and streets. And i find it overpriced.

Camere poco curate
Pros:

La posizione era molto buona e la disponibilità di usufruire del parcheggio coperto è stata molto utile

Cons:

La camera era sporca, ho trovato un sacchetto di patatine di qualche precedente ospite sotto al letto. Il letto era scomodo

Sehr zufriedenstellend
Pros:

Die Nähe zum Bahnhof, trotz der vielen Baustellen in der Umgebung war es ruhig, das Personal war sehr freundlich, die Rezeptionistin hat uns gute Tipps zum Aufenthalt gegeben, die reichliche Auswahl zum Frühstück und mir sehr wichtig: einen guten und starken Espresso!

Cons:

Wenige Möglichkeiten zum Aufhängen von Kleidern ( Für eine Übernachtung aber nicht relevant)
