Staff are nice and helpful, there's a nice garden-type atmosphere in the common area, and the room was clean and spotless. Breakfast was quite delicious, with a general mix of an omlette, crepes, fruit and/or vegetables; it does change if you stay more than a day. A nice place to stay if you can work remote. No TVs in the rooms for those who care. ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### NARCISO Sep 17, 2025 Liked: Staff & service La comodità di essere in centro, camera e personale tutto ok ##### NARCISO Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Frank Jul 25, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Frank Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025
