Rahat fakat biraz gürültülü ve Homless bölgesi
Pros:

Lokasyon olarak güzel. Odalar da rahattı

Cons:

Bölgede yoğun bir homeless popülasyonu var. Biz alışık olduğumuz için sorun olmadı ama ilk kez gidecekler veya yalnız kadınlar için uygun bir bölge değil.

Molto carino ma molto piccolo
Pros:

Hotel veramente molto carino

Cons:

La pecca principale per noi è stata avere una camera veramente molto piccola, senza armadio o armadietto, abbiamo dovuto aprire le valige a terra per poterci vestire
