Reviewed Aug 23, 2026Posizione centrale , camera non molto grande ma pulita. Il bagno sicuramente è stato fatto di recente ed è molto moderno rispetto al resto della stanza. Lo staff ci ha dato tutte le indicazioni necessarie per far si di goderci a pieno il nostro soggiorno anche senza la presenza di una reception sempre attiva e presente. Nonostante la zona centrale impedisca di parcheggiare l'auto la struttura dispone di un parcheggio privato che è stato vitale per noi.
Camera un po' piccola. Se si viaggia con molte valigie gli spazi possono risultare un po' stretti ma non c'è stata nessuna nota negativa.

Upon arrival i asked for the code of the parkinglot behind the building. The man told me it wasn't necessary because it was always open. However on the last 2 days it was not so i had to park outside, which is free also but can be difficult to find a spot because of the cental location. The first 4/5 days we did not have this problem.
