An outstanding older hotel very close toALL transportation. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and efficient; they go beyond to be helpful. The area around the hotel is run down BUT safe and there is a wonderful Sicilian restaurant just around the corner.

Room had moldy, stale cigarette smoke smell. Carpets ancient and dirty. Wallpaper old and dirty and peeling off the walls. Bathroom door with severe water damage, did not close. Party in a room on the same floor as mine that spilled into the hallway - extremely noisy, lasted a few hours. Property said it had breakfast but did not. Bathroom in good condition. Furniture worn and dirty. Very convenient to transportation but neighborhood wasn’t the best.

Opposite station, comfortable, great breakfasttt

We chose this hotel for its proximity to the railway station. Don’t be put off by the scruffy surroundings and grafittied exterior, as the internal courtyard where breakfast is served is a quiet oasis and we had a room which opened onto it. Room was large and comfortable, buffet breakfast very good. Communication was good. We’d asked about a kettle and one was provided. Female receptionist was particularly friendly and helpful.

The hotel was very close to the bus and train station, providing excellent transport links. The breakfast was also very good, and could be eaten in a very pleasant courtyard. Very poor welcome from the receptionist, who appeared annoyed that we were interrupting a lengthy phone call. We had requested an early check-in, but he could not be bothered to check if the room was ready. He quoted a 3pm check-in time which was later than advertised, and simply told us to store our luggage behind the aquarium, an area which was public and essentially unsupervised. The bed was bizarrely uncomfortable. The mattress was hard, and both the mattress and pillows were lumpy.

It can be a wonderful hotel, IF the owners: - renew/ change the furniture - change the carpets, because it smells - renovate the walls. So you can see, if they have a lot of money it can be really a fantastic place! It can be a unic! However, the several interior garden creates a fantastic atmosphere. After a renovation, this could be a beautiful, really cozy hotel!

The property had an amazing breakfast in the garden. The negatives are the hallways are dark and old. The staircase carpet was worn and dirty. But without out a doubt it was the absolutely WORST BED we have ever slept on. My guess is that they all need to be replaced. The bedding itself was also very old and flimsy.

We loved our stay at this unique hotel which was a former palace. The staff was helpful and friendly especially Francesco. The breakfast was good and it was served in a lovely garden courtyard. The rooftop deck was an added bonus. It was easy to take a cab to the city center so we were not bothered by the location which was near the train station. We would stay there again! Jeanine and Paul
