Pros:

Loved our room here. Great staff and good breakfast. The tourist card they give you is awesome and gives free train, bus, and gondola tickets. Everything is walking distance here.

Pros:

Clean rooms

Cons:

The breakfast was very small. Not alot to choose from. A couple of old cheeses, some bread and yoghurt with fruits. Had to boil our own eggs. A little disappointed considering the price of the rooms.

Well located but very over priced for the services on offer
Pros:

It was well located for the centre of the village

Cons:

Lack of staff - nobody was on reception for check in. You had to phone someone and then they asked what hotel you were calling from. Be aware that there is only one eu plug in the room so come prepared. No air con, no tea and coffee making facilities. For this price point I expected a LOT more. The instructions for parking at the sister hotel were non existent.
