The room was very nice, the front desk staff was very helpful, especially Lorenzo and Marco, who recommended tours and helped arrange rides for us. The one disappointment was service at the rooftop bar. We sat and waited for 20 minutes before getting someone to take our drink order.

Very clean, large room with two (!!) bathrooms. We chose this hotel for the proximity to Tremini Station and king size bed offered. Staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Very clean hotel. Our room was very quiet as we crashed at 5pm with blackout curtains (jetlag!) Didn’t get up to the rooftop bar which is disappointing (jetlag!) Nice bedding with ample/multiple pillows. My pet peeve is when hotels do not refresh pillows regularly. This hotel actually offered a pillow menu!!! Didn’t need it as there were 4 on our bed and nice quality. Towels were also large, nice quality.

We got a warm and friendly welcome from the staff. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean. Shuttle to and from the airport was the reason we chose this hotel and we would choose it again. Full service restaurant at the Marriott across the sidewalk was a huge bonus!

It is a very convenient and busy place. The place is full with tourists in and out all day long. The staffs was not very friendly and helpful. It seems they are tired of being asking questions from their guest. I wasn’t impressed by their attitude toward guests. I would not stay here again.

Great breakfast with lots of options, clean and updated hotel. Most staff were friendly. On check in would have appreciated more information on services and layout of the hotel. The staff member who checked us in was not friendly and seemed as though he didn't want to be there and jot interested in providing much info about the hotel. A little noisy at night as our room was facing the street and balcony door wasn't sound proof. They offered shuttle service to the airport for a cost which was convienient if you don't want to take the crowded express train but would have been nice if included in the cost of our stay.
