Goede locatie, vriendelijk personeel en lekkere koffie.
Pros:

De plek naast de Basiliek. Ook het personeel is erg vriendelijk.

Cons:

Douchen in bad vind ik geen succes. En het was erg warm in de kamer.

Centraal gelegen hotel met zicht op de basilico Sant Antonio di Padova
Pros:

De locatie is aan de rand van het oude centrum met zicht op de basilico Sant Antonio en om de hoek van het Prato een groot pluspunt. Het hotel heeft een eigen garage, zodat je je geen zorgen hoeft te maken over het parkeren.

Cons:

Onze kamer was ruim maar ook tamelijk kaal. De badkamer was ontworpen voor rolstoelgebruik, wat als niet rolstoelgebruiker niet ideaal is. Het ontbijt was qua assortiment in orde, maar miste authenticiteit en verrassing.

Deu pro gasto.
Pros:

A localização é muito boa, perto da basílica de Santo Antonio e de pontos trem e onibus. Café da manhã é bom.

Cons:

O banheiro é horrível: não há cortina, a banheira era velha, não havia como deixar a ducha alta, tendo que ser segurada o tempo inteiro durante o banho, sem contar que molhava bastante o banheiro e as toalhas. Além disso, a Staff sempre com aspecto de estar cansada/mal encarada.

Gita con amici
Pros:

La posizione è super. Si gira tutto a piedi benissimo. Il loro parcheggio per noi non andava bene, ma ottimo quello nelle vicinanze. Ottima la colazione. Bella la reception, la sala colazione, le camere

Cons:

In bagni sono un po’ “vintage” ma con il necessario. Quindi va bene comunque così
