There's actually a confirmation number to check in to this Hotel that will not be sent along with your Orbitz reservation.Hence: no easy check-in in an otherwise unmanned hotel.
Once we arrived, there's a self check in at the entrance in the form of a not so intelligent stand alone screen. Once you navigate the awkwardness of the lack of confirmation number and manage to phone the customer service line (be aware that there's actually no house phone, so, if your cell is not roaming, good luck with check in)
Finally, you have to scan ALL family's passports and for some weird reason you have to enter all the information all over again. There it goes: wife, child one, child two and me.
Well, you get the key and you say that the worst is over. Welcome to an otherwise clean room with very comfy beds, very clean sheets and bathrooms. BUT.... The room is flooded with what seems to be a serious air conditioning water damage and the floor literally containing actual pieces of the ceiling.
Hot humid Tuscany in August. At least your aircon will work flawlessly. Dream on. The air conditioning is on an actual timer that lets it run for about 4 minutes until it turns off automatically. What do you get? The typical conundrum between insomnia and suffocation.
One positive thing. The air conditioning shut off timer worked like a charm all night long while I believe that I have not been charged for the sauna that was my room.
