Una notte e forse mai piu
Pros:

​Il nightclub sottostante sembra chiuso, mentre il parco di fronte appare rinnovato.

​Per una sola notte può anche passare. Nota di merito per la stanza 108: è climatizzata, anche se la doccia è "rotta" e la ventola del bagno cieco non funziona.

Cons:

L’Hotel Valentino è un due stelle. Non ha un bar, non ha una hall, non offre un servizio da tre stelle e non ha nemmeno il telefono in camera.

​È una struttura di origine militare, trasformata in un palazzotto signorile nei primi del ’900 (probabilmente adibito all'accoglienza di "signorine con giarrettiera"). Oggi è rimasto esattamente quello: un vecchio palazzo con affreschi mai restaurati e stanze tinteggiate alla men peggio. La pulizia scarseggia e la manutenzione è del tutto assente.

Pros:

L’emplacement était top. Situé à cinq minutes à pied de la Via Etnea et des principaux lieux à visiter, c’était facile de rejoindre le cœur de la ville.

Cons:

C’était très bruyant. L’hôtel se situe au-dessus d’une discothèque ☹️. Par ailleurs, on entendait tout ce qui se passait dans la chambre d’à côté.

Un lieu à éviter autant que possible
Cons:

Mis à part le personnel et la localisation qui sont au rendez vous il faut vraiment éviter cet établissement. Rien ne va.
Aucune isolation phonique. On entend tout ce qui se passe dans les chambres voisines.
La salle de bain est minable petite avec une douche toute tartrée et qui ne fonctionne qu’à moitié. La soufflerie est digne d’un réacteur d’avion et quand vient le soir le bruit assourdissant du bar en bas s’entend jusque tard dans la nuit.
Alors qu’il s’agit d’un B&B le petit déjeuner n’est pas proposé.
Enfin pendant la nuit la lumière du couloir ne s’éteint jamais de sorte qu’on est éclairé à l’intérieur de la chambre toute la nuit durant.
Les photos présentées ne sont pas fidèles à ce qu’on trouve en arrivant.
Je vous recommande donc de ne pas y aller si vous pouvez éviter.

Personal hui, alles andere Pfui!
Pros:

Check-in-Prozedur unproblematisch und sehr einfach. Alles läuft mit Codes, sodass Sie auch später anreisen können.

Cons:

Es war ekelhaft! Ich konnte mich nicht einmal duschen.
Auf den Bilder sah es toll aus, aber wirklich nur auf den Bildern. Es war eine Horror-Nacht. Das Sanitär ist angeblich erneuert worden, aber alles war so verkalkt und fleckig, dass ich es notdürftig benutzt habe.
Ich war froh, als die Nacht vorbei war und ich endlich raus konnte.

Pros:

Clădirea a fost impresionantă. Hotelul se află intr o clădire veche, istorică.

Cons:

Este o cameră rece, simți ca dormi intr un castel, cu podea din beton, fără covoare, nu arată ca o cameră primitoare, deși arhitectura este una deosebită. Nu a fost chiar pe gustul meu.
