A Journey Back in Time
excellent locationunique charmhelpful staffample breakfast
I found the location excellent. It was a short walk to the center and the train station. The hotel's claim as the oldest in Italy provided unique charm. The staff impressed me with their consistent helpfulness. Continental breakfast offered ample choices to begin my days exploring.
The shower head in my room was a bit low. It made showering slightly less comfortable. I also thought that the sound isolation was poor. I could hear a lot of noise inside and outside the hotel.
