Value for money, great location in a gorgeous town
Pros:

Location. Parking.

Cons:

Renovations prevented the terrace from being used. The decor is extremely dated, however charming. It is a hotel on the first floor of a Belle Epoque apartment building. It was once luxurious but not now. The entrance is very obscure and difficult to find. Smelly and dirty vestibule but not the hotel’s fault as it is a residential building. Definitely value for money but you get what you pay for. Shabby chic? Shabby yes, chic once upon a time. We do recommend it though but be prepared.

Good, but could be great with some changes
Pros:

Staff kind and helpful
Breakfast available
Great location
Good housekeeping

Cons:

Bathrooms desperately need updating as every flush of the toilet was very noisy.
Too many varieties of cake for breakfast. Be better to add muesli/granola and some other fruit like bananas and melon.

Soggiorno spettacolare, consiglio vivamente di ampliare il servizio caffetteria tutto il giorno
Pros:

La posizione dell'albergo fantastica, e l'accoglienza stupenda. Il servizio che mi è mancato è stato solo la possibilità di fare (a pagamento naturalmente) un caffè nel pomeriggio appena sveglio dal riposino. Dato che la maccina del caffè è presente sarebbe un servizio eccezionale

Cons:

Nulla
