Staff is very friendly. The location is off the highway and to and from the airport is 12 minutes (no traffic). So you'll need a taxi to get you to the citta vecchia (Euro 15,00).
It's the rooms & restaurant that need desperate repair. The rooms still have a lingering nicotine smell - beds are lumpy. The interiors haven't been touched since the 80's with their monochromatic green quilting for curtains, bedspreads and even green veneer cabinetry. I ordered Porcini risotto that was so salty that I asked if the chef smoked (Yes) and should have asked if he had a sex life, as it was lifeless. Needed veggies - and got boiled zucchini!!! NO CULTURE boils zucchini! Was I in Italy or hell? Vedure grillia right?
How can you screw up zucchini? or betray the national cooking method? I was speechless and it doesn't happen often.
