Homemade breakfast but remote reception

Overall excellent with an amazing breakfast of homemade baked items. However, our arrival was a bit odd. At 4:00 PM there was no staff at the premises. After no response to the doorbell, we were forced to activate costly international roaming on our phone (the only time during an 18-day trip) to reach someone who provided information on how get in. During our 5-day stay, it appears there was no management around after noon--sometimes not even after 10:30 AM.

Recommend

The room, in fact it was a suite, was spacious and clean, with a refrigirator and AC in each room. The only issue was that the shower glass doors were installed very unstable and one of them falled on my husband during shower. The glass broke in small pieces and even wounded slightly my husband. However, the manager arrived immediately and cleaned the bathroom and flat. The location was wonderful.

very central to everything and friendly staff

Federico was fantastic. It’s a bit hard to find at first, but it’s really central and very close to the Duomo and from there, the Quattro Canti. Vincenzo is very responsive. Place is clean, and big, and I enjoyed my stay there.

Good ensuite room, breakfast was as expected and good coffee too - espresso and Americano (we’re a latte and cappucino free zone!). Would book again on our next potential visit as it was fairly quiet at night and close to some of the main sights.
