Worse hotel in whole city
Pros:

Over the past year and a half, I have traveled to Padua many times for work, and this was by far the worst place I have ever stayed.

The hotel was extremely dirty. There were dried urine stains on the toilet, the floor in the room was so dirty that my feet literally felt sticky when I walked on it, and there were short black hairs all over the bathroom floor. The mattress was very uncomfortable, and there was no elevator in the building.

The photos advertised on Booking.com do not reflect the actual condition of the room. Just compare the photos I uploaded with the ones posted by the property, and you'll clearly see the difference.

In addition, the neighborhood did not feel safe at all.

I honestly don't understand how Booking.com justifies charging this rate for a property like this. It barely meets the standards of a hostel, let alone a hotel.

Camera orrenda in merito alla pulizia del bagno, l'odore in camera ed il prezzo eccessivo
Pros:

La vicinanza alla stazione dei treni

Cons:

La camera puzzava di chiuso, in bagno sul soffito c'era la muffa, lo stesso in doccia, e l'armadio in camera era praticamente rotto.

Personale poco attento e poco cordiale
Pros:

La stanza non era affatto male, tuttavia, era un po' trascurata, ma era abbastanza pulita.

Cons:

Non mi è piaciuto il personale, perché erano tutti stranieri che non parlavano bene l' italiano.
