Location and surroundings
The characteristic market of leather and souvenirs of San Lorenzo is only a block away. There are plenty of restaurants and bars and pizzerias good in the same street and nearby. There is a supermarket next door and others in the vicinity.
Very good locality, close to main station but this was run by a old couple who is trying their best. Moderate clean and the whole night, calling bell were keep ringing. if you are unlucky and got a room close to the office then its difficult to sleep. Though its given under B&B, no breakfast is provided.
The localisation of the hotel was perfect, the street was a little bit noisy but ok. The woman responsible is very nice but speaks only in italian. The room was pretty old but ok for one night, the only problem was the bathroom, very durty and the shower in bad condition ! We have signaled that and we have received a reduction of the price.
we stayed for 2nights with double room here. we supposed there was private bathroom. but i have to remind everyone if u really want to secure a private bathroom u have to come in at least 4 person. coz the bathroom is ouside the room and u need to share it with yr friends, like in an "apartment". For us, the old lady arranged wrongly the first night and so we need to share the bathroom with strangers. Anyway, the building is old but very nice and pretty^^. the old lady was great and lovely. She arranged the room for us correctly the 2nd day. she also gave us chocolate and coffee^^. But the wifi doesnt work. overall its not the best hostel but we had valuable experience.
Our room was old and dirty. I got bug bites seriously but my friend was very fine. Mosquitos are always in the room. Not recommend this place. I am sorry to say this.
