Pulizia della camera

− Camera sopra il pub della struttura quindi po rumoroso. Centro non vicinissimo a piedi

Nice place

8.0

Well set out bathroom with roomy shower plenty of towels and shampoo/shower gel, conditioner and hand cream. Good ventilation so no misted up mirror. Big TV, Nespresso coffee maker and pods, regular and oat milk, carafe of water. A couple of good fans to cool the room. Hairdryer. Phone charging USB-A slots either side of the bed. Good pillows. Bar downstairs for a nightcap.

− Bag storage only before 11am or after 3pm. The bed was a little too soft for us.
