Spartan, with accents of slum landlordism. The ideally located, high ceiling bedrooms on the fourth floor of a listed 16th century palazzo are charming but make for an uncomfortable stay.
As advertised, the rooms and facilities are very barebones. In the shared bathroom you will be treated to complimentary toilet paper and hand soap. The sink is clogged and there is no hand towel.
The rooms have no blinds nor occlusion curtains. As a result the rooms get excruciatingly warm in summer and, although clean, ours wasn’t aired before we checked in. As stated there is no AC but a tabletop fan in the room helped create draft with the window and thin curtains open (day breaks at 5am in July).
The bed is very old, uncomfortable and lopsided on the right. A single towel is made available per guest.
The host who greeted us was accommodating enough and although they couldn’t offer to hold onto our luggage until the time Gianmarco had offered over earlier messages, we very much appreciated the possibility of leaving our luggage in the flat for a few hours after checking out at 10 am.
