Wonderful Hotel near the Train Station

convenient location kind touch excellent service free luggage
The hotel stands conveniently across the street from the train station. This made traveling simple. I received complimentary water, a welcome note, and chocolates. This was a kind touch. The staff was friendly and ready to help. Their service was excellent. I stored my luggage for free after checkout. This was very helpful as I wanted to see more of Italy.
The room seemed slightly dusty in isolated spots. Otherwise, the cleanliness was satisfactory.

the hotel is very close to the train station a big plus if you are traveling by train. i found the staff to be kind and polite especially at reception and during breakfast. the breakfast itself was really good and fresh i enjoyed it.
when i checked in the clerk wanted to upgrade my already paid room for extra money. i felt this was a bit of a scam and declined the offer. the room was small and the only window opened to a smelly alley i didn't like it.
