Im Großen und Ganzen waren wir zufrieden.
Pros:

Der Ausblick aus dem geräumigen Zimmer direkt auf den Dom. Der Parkplatz direkt im Hof und der nette Empfang.

Cons:

Es war nachts nicht so ruhig (Verkehr doch sehr zu hören). Kleine Tische beim Frühstück, das gebrauchte Geschirr wird nicht abgeräumt.

Ár-érték arányban megfelelő és kényelmes szállás közel a bazilikához.
Pros:

Nagyszerű elhelyezkedés, közel a Szent Antal Bazilikához. A belváros könnyen megközelíthető. Kedves, segítőkész személyzet. Finom reggeli, kényelmes ágyak. Parkolás pár percre a hoteltől. Amíg kipakoltunk és elfoglaltuk a szobàkat, addig a közelben meg tudtunk állni ideiglenesen.

The location is hard to beat.
Pros:

The location could not be better: right next to the Basilica of St. Anthony and about a five-minute walk from Prato della Valle. The front desk staff were friendly, helpful, and professional throughout the stay. A special mention goes to the three gentlemen at the reception desk, as well as the bellboy/porter, who were especially attentive with directions, luggage, and arranging taxis.

Cons:

The room was a bit dated and could probably use some updating. As for breakfast, I’m not usually a big breakfast person, but the scrambled eggs were pretty bad, and the staff in the breakfast area didn’t come across as particularly friendly or helpful.
