"The reception of the hotel was lovely, i run the bell and a kind lady promptly help me check in. The hotel was really good for the price, it was not a fancy hotel but it was clean and the room and the bathroom were a good size for one person, and with enough space to hang clothing. The top floor where breakfast is served has an amazing view. The hotel is just steps away from Piazza della Repubblica and close to all restaurants and shops. I highly recommend this hotel."
