The location is great. The rooftop and terrace are very cool if you can see the Duomo in the background. The rooms are pretty good. Shower is nice. The only thing that made me give this less than five stars is the fact my AC didn’t work for two nights, which was the total of my trip so the whole time we had no AC and it was very hot. They were also very stingy with the waters.

Good choice of breakfast varieties plus hot drinks, juice, water. Room was good size, loved the terrace on top with view towards the Duomo. Hotel in quiet area though inside walls thin and some guests were noisy past midnight. Nothing excessive though. Man aged to get a good sleep. Good find and value for money. Close to transport, amenities and city centre.
