great location safe area close proximity poor soundproofing thin walls paper walls

the hotel had a great location! it was close to many bars and cafes. the area felt safe because it was well-lit, we loved that. it was only ten minutes from piazza maggiore.

The soundproofing was a serious issue. It was poor. it was like the walls were made of paper. i could hear everything from outside and inside the hotel

perfect coffee easy access helpful staff cramped room inadequate soundproofing small shower

The breakfast options felt generous. Coffee had this perfect strength and flavor. The location gave me easy access to many shops, but it also ensured a certain quietness in the evenings. The staff showed so much patience when I asked for directions.

My room felt cramped, this made moving around a little difficult. Soundproofing seemed inadequate. I could hear noises from the hallway during the night.
