This hotel (that actually looks like a motel) was perfectly fine for our needs, once we ironed out the issue of how cold the room was. We were initially assigned Room 216, on the second floor, but in the outdoor wing and it was colder inside the room than outside. The gentleman at the front desk (who, by the way, was also the driver of the shuttle van) explained about how the heat cannot be turned on after April 15th and that it would automatically come on by the evening time, based on the outside temperature. Thank goodness he did change our room, to Room 210, in the inside building, because the heat did not come on until 11 PM. The room is basically furnished, nothing too fancy, but it was large enough and quite clean, as was the bathroom, the bed was comfortable, we watched TV for the first time on our 12 day trip and there were over 100 channels (99 of which were in Italian), there is a mini-bar, but you need to go to the front desk for the key (we did not), and there was good enough space for our bags. One thing to note, not sure if all showers were as small as ours, but I weigh 130 pounds and am 5'6", and it was a struggle to get into it. It is square and the two sliding half doors meet at a corner, so it's a REALLY narrow opening. Breakfast, at 5 Euros per person was nowhere near as fresh as other, more expensive hotels offer, and you can get only one cup of coffee or tea, but it was more than adequate, especially at $44 USD per night. We had reserved the shuttle to take us to the airport at 8 AM, and it was ready on time. Arrivederci, Italia! read more
