This review is not so much about the hotel like of priceline. Well where do I start, oh yes, As I was checking for vacation packages and hotels in Italy, Since I was traveling with the whole family (3 couples, 3 kids) I was looking to get 3 double rooms, that way each kid could sleep in each room right? 2 Queen beds or 2 Twin beds at the worst case scenario. As Im looking at Priceline offers an ¿incredible¿ deal pops out they call it ¿The Express Deal¿. When you see the description it will tell you they only choose the best renown hotels and its sort of like name your own price but with a recommendation from priceline. And there it was a four star hotel for about xxx a night per room! What a deal!! Well here comes the good stuff: The hotel is not a 2 star hotel even in their dreams!! It barely makes it to a 1 star. Yet priceline displays it as a 4 star!! This tells me two things either priceline is not even confirming the hotel meets the requirements or they are trying to fool people that are not well traveled. Here is why: 4 Star Hotel review: In the priceline amenities it promises free parking, well that¿s if you are an Italian policeman because the parking lot was rented out to the police department, so don¿t count on parking when you book with priceline, call hotel first and make sure they do, I rented 2 cars and had to find parking, and its not like here, I mean there you have to park on actual side walks, (BTW car was scratched). Ok once I found parking I go to the hotel and check in, but oh surprise, its not a double room, it¿s a double room meaning only for 2 persons not 2 beds. Huh? and the manager insisted I would have to pay 35 euros per kid per night extra on top of the payment I had provided to priceline, even tho their website listed 20% extra on their rates,that I found ridiculous to pay but I did.
Pros: Just to make story short, stroller does not fit in elevator. Elevator is for 2, just maybe 3 person, I wish I could post pictures,the corridor of the rooms had trail of sewage odor TV is a monitor maybe 19¿ point is you cant see it from bed,the bed
Cons: old sinking mattresses the terrace was a dump, blinds ? those should go in a museum. Anyways if the hotel was a 1 star hotel would be nice, BUT NEVER IN HELL 4 stars!! (I have photos !)
