Good intentions, but the hotel is a chip off the 80s. The service was very good, got a free upgrade, and it made a huge difference, as the initial room would have been a mere cupboard. The second room was very spacious, with a large balcony (although no chairs or table on the balcony, so a bit useless). The view from the room was horrendous, and since it's based in a galleria, I would imagine all of the rooms are like that. The appliances were also a bit dated, the light switch had to be held on with a bit of well placed bit of paper. The bed spread was from another era, very old looking and tired. The bathtub is always a nice surprise. The breakfast was basic. Just ham and cheese for something savoury, the rest just croissants, yoghurts and cereals. Nothing memorable. The location is great for a Ligurian base.
