Categories

Cleanliness
8.3
Generally reported as clean (sheets, bathrooms), but several guests reported issues: rooms not made for extended periods, mold/fume smell in at least one room and humidity damage — mixed but overall slightly positive.
Service
9.3
Staff repeatedly described as very helpful, welcoming and attentive (welcome drink/discount by reception, friendly team). A few isolated negatives (unhelpful reception late, ID-copy/GDPR concern) but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.6
Location is repeatedly praised as excellent/central, near metro and good connection to the airport — consistently highlighted as a major strength.
Room Quality
8
Beds and decor often praised and some rooms are spacious, but frequent mentions of small rooms, noisy elevator (room 901), TV without remote, and room-specific issues (mold/odour) lower this score.
Amenities
8.9
Good amenities noted (free water refill station, complimentary bedroom items, functional decor). Breakfast buffet and variety praised as part of amenities, though some asked for slightly more variety over a full week.
Value for Money
7.6
Multiple guests commented the hotel felt expensive and not always fully justified by room size/quality; one guest paid a large sum and experienced multiple problems — overall value perception is below the target rating.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Breakfast repeatedly described as excellent, varied and good quality; some notes that breakfast is expensive and could use marginally more weekly variety, but overall F&B is a strong point.
Overall Experience
9.6
Overall guest tone is very positive — many call the stay 'wonderful' or 'exceptional' and note smooth experiences and good staff — isolated operational and room issues did not dominate most reviews.

Servizio ristorante eccellente, ma camere e pulizie non all’altezza del prezzo
Pros:

Colazione ottima e varia, con personale di sala sempre molto gentile e attento. Molto gradito anche il gesto della reception di offrirci un drink di benvenuto e uno sconto sulla prima cena per scusarsi dei disagi iniziali. Buona la vista dalla camera al 9° piano.

Cons:

Abbiamo prenotato due camere Premium per 5 notti (spesa di oltre 2.700 €), ma l'esperienza ha presentato diverse criticità:
• Camere assegnate su piani diversi.
• Stanza 901 rumorosa a causa dei motori degli ascensori al piano superiore.
• Stanza 408 con forte odore di muffa/fumo e danni evidenti da umidità sui pannelli esterni al bagno (vedi foto). Le alternative proposte al momento non erano equivalenti e il cambio promesso per l'indomani non è mai avvenuto.
• Per ben tre giorni, rientrando alle 15:30 (dopo oltre 4 ore di assenza), le camere non erano ancora state rifatte.
