Ok so the hotel is fairly basic and not the most modern. BUT location is everything. You are literally a minutes walk (if that!) from the Duomo. Also great value for money for where it’s situated as other hotels I looked at in that location were hugely more expensive. Breakfast is included and was good!

It was interesting to spend the night in this hotel. The room and shower are very small, and the soundproofing requires better; you can even hear someone fart, but overall it was fun. The location is super and the breakfast is good.

Location amazing, just a few mins from the cathedral, restaurants and bars. The hotel is an older style hotel, where you still have keys which you give in when you go out. The reception is manned 24/7 so not a worry about getting your key when you return to the hotel. Room wise, some are better than others. My first room

The staff from reception to breakfast was amazing. The ladies up front always remembered who we were and our room number when we returned to the hotel and needed our key. Our only complaint is that the room was incredibly noisy. There is a metro stop in front of the hotel, and ALL night long we could hear the bus/tram coming and going. We could also hear people in the rooms on either side of us and water running in the walls. Aside from the metro stop, the location was great; close to the train station, Duomo and restaurant/shops.

Website claimed you needed to check in by 2300 so I ran across the city to make this timing. On arrival he said to me that there is no limit to check in and it was an inaccuracy with the website...so maybe change that? I arrived at the hotel in good spirits regardless and they told me they did not have a room for me even though it was booked through this site. They put me up in a sister hotel across the city down by the canal which was not ideal. The hotel was straight out of the 1980s. If booking just prepare for a bed and toilet, everything else is very dated.

Disliked: Amenities
The location of the hotel is brilliant. Right in the centre just a few hundred meters from Duomo plaza. Unfortunately our first floor room was right next to a tram stop with trams every 30 seconds. The noise was terrible. Could not get to sleep in the evening and first trams at 5am woke us up. Had almost no sleep. The breakfast was ok croissant, coffee and juice. If the room had been at the rear or on a top floor maybe the experience would have been better and worth 4 or 5 stars. But the room was so noisy we just could not sleep. Final moan there was no facilities for making a morning cup of coffee in our room. No facilities at all. The bed was very comfortable and the shower powerful but the room was basic.
