Pros:

Very disappointing experience. There is no reception at the entrance and no clear signage explaining where to find it. The reception is hidden away on the second floor, and getting there involves navigating a confusing series of corridors, finding the elevator, and then going through more corridors.

Trying to find the reception feels more like walking through the set of a horror movie than checking into a hotel. At some point, it becomes unclear whether the goal is to find the reception or escape the building.

After finally reaching the reception, things don’t get any better. The staff member was rude and unwelcoming.

A hotel should make guests feel welcome when they arrive, not make them solve a maze just to check in.

תמורה מלאה למחיר
Pros:

המלון ממוקם על הרחוב הראשי 50 מטר מהשוק הענק הכל קרוב מסעדות אוטובוסים ומול המלון שווארמה נהדרת. החדרים גדולים ומאד נקיים. ישנה מרפסת שמקיפה את המלון. ארוחת הבוקר דלה ואין ירקות. בחדרים קומקום ניתן לפי דרישה. הצוות מדבר רק איטלקית ופקיד הקבלה אנגלית בסיסית. ריהוט ישן וארון קטן ללא מדפים רק תליה.

Buono ma migliorabile
Pros:

Buona posizione e personale molto gentile
Ho soggiornato in questo hotel trovandolo complessivamente soddisfacente. Il punto di forza è sicuramente la posizione, comoda per raggiungere le principali attrazioni e per muoversi facilmente in città.
Ho apprezzato molto anche la gentilezza e disponibilità del personale, sempre cortese e attento alle esigenze degli ospiti. Le camere e i bagni sono sufficientemente spaziosi e funzionali. La colazione è discreta, con una scelta adeguata.

Cons:

L'aspetto che, invece, meriterebbe maggiore attenzione è lo stabile, che appare piuttosto vetusto e avrebbe bisogno di una buona ristrutturazione e di un generale ammodernamento. Un intervento in questo senso valorizzerebbe sicuramente la struttura e renderebbe il soggiorno ancora più piacevole.
Nel complesso, una struttura con ottima posizione e personale molto disponibile, che potrebbe migliorare sensibilmente con un intervento di rinnovamento degli ambienti.
