Check in area was busy, but fortunately my room was ready so I didn’t have to wait to go explore the city. My room was nicely appointed and I had a city view. Elevators are tiny which is not unusual in Italy. Lovely bar with happy hour which I didn’t actually get to because I was sightseeing but I really liked the looks of the bar"

8/10 Good
"We were a couple who stayed the first night in a 3 single beds room, and the other three nights we were in a private room with a large bed. One issue is that there is only one singular outlet in the rooms. In the private room, we only had one free electrical outlet which was in the bathroom. We had to disconnect the TV in order to have any outlet in the bedroom. We really feel this is inadequate, especially in bedroom with more than two beds. On the day we left we found bugs under the bedside cube. I also had multiple bites on my leg, luckily they were not itchy so I don't know what they were. They were NOT bedbugs. There is no facility to iron at all, not a single iron on the whole property They staff was really friendly and helpful over all, even when faced with large groups who were waiting to check in they were very professional, kind and helpful, 5 starts for any staff interaction. We would definitely stay again but would really wish they would install more outlets and stay on top of ants/bugs. All towels and beddings were clean. We didn't eat from their restaurant or use the pool so we have no comments to share."
