Idea Hotel Piacenza

On arrival, the hotel looked quite smart and we were allocated a double room on the 4th floor. The lift creaked an groaned and was very slow. Our room was OK if a bit “tired-looking”, however, when we tried to flush the toilet it didn’t work. The front desk staff were very helpful and quickly moved us to another room, this time a triple-bed room, also on the 4th floor. We stayed here overnight but the sink didn’t empty properly, the toilet seat wasn’t properly fastened and some of the room lights failed to operate. We did advise the staff of these issues on checking out. Breakfast was good, fresh and tasty although the coffee machine had seen better days. Our feelings were, that this had once been a well appointed hotel but was now in decline. Poor maintenance was in evidence everywhere, the walls painted in a slapdash manner, wall repairs not plastered over and the electric heater in elevator lobby on the 4th floor was missing it protective grill thus leaving the electrics in a dangerously exposed condition. On the plus side, it is very convenient as it is just off the autostrada and has a delightful restaurant just across the road (Amore Versace).

Hotel un po' datato però comodo come posizione, nei pressi ci sono vari ristoranti. Le camere avrebbero bisogno di una rinnovata e di maggiore illuminazione. La colazione nella norma. Accoglienza buona.
