    Mind-blowing location just steps away from train and bus stations, perfect for exploring the area. The B&B-like atmosphere during winter adds charm, and the breakfast spread is super, with all-day tea and coffee. The historic building with its museum-like corridor and pretty interior design is jaw-dropping. The comfortable bed and extremely kind staff make for a memorable stay. a convenient location to start hiking and sightseeing, and close proximity to amazing restaurants and bars for aperitivo. Clean rooms, great breakfast, friendly staff, and loads of helpful information at reception. Can't wait to visit again!

    Attending the festivals was a breeze with the hotel's central location! Walking distance to all attractions, and only 2 minutes from the hotel. Also loved the complimentary amenities and the option for a cooked-to-order breakfast!

    Ah, the perfect touch of translucent glass in the bathroom, because who doesn't love watching their friends brush their teeth?

    Convenient location, lovely interior design, and friendly staff. the hotel is located near the bus and train stations, making it easy to navigate around the area. the interior design is beautifully decorated, giving the hotel a warm and inviting atmosphere. the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, providing useful tips and recommendations for places to go and things to see.

    Sparse breakfast and noisy surroundings. the breakfast was a bit sparse, with only a limited selection of items, and was comprised mostly of boiled eggs.

    We spent Christmas at this hotel and enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, which had a nice selection of food, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. the staff was friendly, and the room was clean and well-maintained.

    The noise from the street made it difficult to sleep at night, and the room was quite small. We also experienced issues with the air conditioning unit, which made it difficult to regulate the room temperature.

    This hotel offers great value for money. The rooms are spacious with high ceilings, giving you plenty of space to move around. I loved the translucent glass division between the bathroom and bedroom, it added a trendy touch. The nice balcony was a bonus, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee. The breakfast had a wide variety of foods to cater to different tastes.

    No improvements necessary, everything was just right.
