7.6/10 Good! (1,002 reviews)
The room was okay. For the price can’t ask for better. Everything work fine, fully equipped, and breakfast included with very good choices of items and coffees. I will return to this place if I have another opportunity because the staff it’s very friendly, very close to the train station and with lots of restaurants and stores around.

8.2/10 Very Good! (286 reviews)
Room was hot. Could have used a fan or something to help with that. The bathroom was interesting with the see through shower from the bedroom. Main thing I didn’t like is the signage did not stand out. We walked from the train station to the address provided by Expedia. No hotel. After speaking with the front desk staff member over WhatsApp several times he helped guide us to the correct location. It was closer to the train station than where Expedias map told us but the aggregation of dragging luggage all over the place attempting to locate the hotel was a 1 star rating for that. Old school key to lock the door vs digital key but that wasn’t an issue just noting it.

Well worth a visit. Wouldn't know you were so near the railway station once inside. Beautiful frescoes from 1300s. Some renovation of cloisters at present.

Museum really interesting. Couldn't go up the dome, as only booked tickets a few days before trip. So need tobook early for a timed slot for this. Never made cathedral as queues always 2-3 hours long and other people had said that it wasn't worth it. Best bit is the outside.
