The hotel offers classic-style rooms that are small but cozy, conveniently located within walking distance of historic sites, markets, and restaurants. While the ambiance may feel a bit gloomy, the nice lighting and variety of pillows add comfort to the stay.

The hotel had gorgeous rooms with the best shower experience ever, very clean throughout, and blissfully quiet. The breakfast was OK but could be improved in terms of variety. The staff were extremely helpful, offering excellent assistance in booking tickets and providing detailed information. The location was outstanding, just a couple of minutes' walk to the main piazza and shopping streets. The dining experience was first class with attentive staff but could have had a wider selection of cooked items.

The hotel is cozy and comfortable, though the second bedroom is quite far from the front desk, which can be inconvenient for luggage. The rooms, though small, are pleasant and well-equipped with necessary furniture. The service is attentive and accommodating, going the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. The location is outstanding, offering everything one might need and featuring a beautiful deep bath. The dining experience is top-notch, with a wide variety of delicious options. However, the facilities could use a bit of improvement for an even better experience.

The rooms, with a walk-in closet and shower, were very clean and comfortable with amazing bathroom facilities, and provided a comfortable space. The only downside was encountering a front desk person named Massimo who wasn't as accommodating as the rest of the staff.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable but not of high quality, yet the staff couldn't have been more helpful. The location was convenient in the old town, but the hotel lacked a bit of the expected charm. The dining options were varied and delicious, while the facilities were sufficient but nothing extraordinary.

The hotel has a unique charm with its vaulted ceiling and hand-painted patterned walls, but the rooms were a bit small for a superior, facing another wall, creating a semi-dark atmosphere during the day. The air fresheners were overwhelming until we opened the windows to refresh the 'freshened' air.

The rooms, although smaller and darker than expected with only one small window, were well-appointed and had a switch to turn off background music, which we found pleasant. The service was friendly, but our balcony room wasn't available due to the previous guest's illness; still, the staff suggested a local restaurant for delivery. The location was outstanding, right in the center near major attractions, though the dining experience, while good, wasn't as exceptional as expected. Overall, a delightful stay with a few hiccups.
