A little let down
Pros:

The location of the hotel was very good. Our 1st room we booked had a panoramic view of the cathedral. Breakfast was good with a few choices of food.

Cons:

We had to move out of that room as the bathroom ceiling was about to come down due to a leak from air-conditioning. We were moved to a room with less of a view and smaller.
We had no compensation for the inconvenience or disappointment of the style of room.

Perfect quick stay in Padova centro
Pros:

Fantastic central location, quiet room, clean and fresh, with some traditional italian atmosphere. Slept like a baby. Staff pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

Breakfast was the very generic simple buffet style that is common all around Italy, nothing bad but could be fresher/higher quality.

Pros:

Good basic 3 star hotel, in an excellent location.

Cons:

The Breakfast was below a reasonable standard. The buffet was not replenished and they had run out of the little that was on offer. The two waitresses tried their best but could not fix the problem. .

Pros:

Although the hotel looks small from the outside, it's actually quite large. The location is excellent, the staff are very high-quality, solution-oriented, and extremely attentive. Thank you.

Cons:

The breakfast menu could be expanded, for example by adding sliced ​​tomatoes and cucumbers. On the other hand, the current breakfast menu was also extremely nice and delicious.
