Pros:

Nel complesso la struttura è carina.
Nella nostra camera però abbiamo trovato 2-3 cose da sistemare: finestra rotta/non apribile, rubinetto senza leva e spazio molto ridotto. Nessuna segnalazione in precedenza. Migliorando questi dettagli il giudizio sarebbe sicuramente più alto.

Not many affordable options in the area. The facility itself is fine – the staff and service, meh.
Pros:

No breakfast was included in the room, so I picked something up in the local grocery store instead.

Cons:

Food was the main negative; what was available seemed overpriced for what it was. Service upon arrival was a bit "meh" – a bit like I was inconveniencing them.
