    Finding the location was slightly difficult, as we didn't know we'd need a code or to call the hosts to enter. A little more explanation after booking but before arrival would have been appreciated.

    The accommodations met our expectations and the hosts were very kind. They let us arrive slightly early and leave our bags after checkout on our last day. We would happily stay again.

    The rooms were not well sound proofed. We were disturbed by very loud neighbours and at night you could hear a lot of road noise. The shutters were difficult to manoever and we could not quite manage to close them fully.

    Lovely staff, very large bed and a good sized room, the private bathroom was very tight but covered our needs, and our room felt secure. The fridge was very handy, although was very loud so we had to switch it off overnight. Overall though, a great stay, and exactly what we needed to crash at the end of our long walking days touring the city.

    I didn't have any issues, but it's near a busy street and may be too noisy if you're a light sleeper.

    Room is comfortable and big. The external private toilet is just across the room. Hosts were friendly and provided good toiletries, coffee, tea and biscuits. The hotel is close to a train station and other transport links. It's a short walk from there to the Mercado Centrale and city centre.

    The room faces a busy street and can be quite noisy late into the night/early morning.

    Our room had a private bathroom which was nice and the space was pretty clean. There were also some complementary snacks and tea in the room which was very sweet.

    This location is on a main road near the train station and near two tram lines. As a result, it's quite noisy at night. We did ok with it, however. Location felt quite safe, but you are near some sketchier areas, such as the bridge under the train tracks nearby.

    Nice place with a great host. Close to train station, which is really useful (as we came and went by train). Decent room, with decent WIFI. Easy to find and we felt secure.

    Last day we were having food in the hall after checkout time, the person who was working there suggested we have food at the reception table. Later, the owner came and was not happy that we were having food on the reception table, as any time the new guest would come. I understand their situation. But it ended up being an embarrassing end for both of us. We packed the remaining food and left the place with our luggage for the station, where we had our food. NOTE: They didn't force us or utter any rough words, they just asked us to finish our food fast.

    The room was quite big and the lighting was quite good. The window scroller was quite good, it was adequate for the good light during the day and a very good sound seal at night. When I closed the window tightly, the room was quiet and comfortable. The location is the biggest asset and it is just 5 mins walk from the station. And just a 2 min walk to the meeting point of most of the tour operators. We reached early and we left late... all these times we were provided space to store our luggage in the main entrance hall. The host was available at any time on call and they helped us with all our requests. The stay is on the third floor and they have compact Lift to reach.
