We are a family of four and we stayed one night in this hotel during out road trip through Italy. The hotel is quiet, parking is FREE and the room was actually a suite - two rooms, large balcony and a big bathroom. The room and towels were very clean, soap and shampoo supplied etc.
Breakfast was included, although disappointing - overheated yesterday's pastries, freezing cold boiled eggs from the fridge (at least a day old), some quite average cold cuts - less variety and lower quality food than B&Bs where we stayed on this trip.
There is a swimming pool on the site and the kids were excited to cool of from the summer heat. However, the pool was not very clean, there were fallen leaves and other debris in it. However, we still decided that they could go in. At the front desk, the receptionist told us we can only use the pool with the swimming caps. How odd! No shower prior to swimming, no place to even wash your feet prior to entering, but they seemed overly concerned about our hair?! Since we did not have any he sold us some cheap-looking Chinese polyester caps for 3E/piece. What a ripoff, but we had no choice! In the end, the kids did not spend much time in the pool as we went in search of a restaurant for dinner, but the dirty pool with the swimming cap requirement definitely assured that we would not recommend this place to friends.
Expecting similar problems, we avoided the overpriced hotel restaurant in favour of visiting the little town of Monselice and eating there. This is a nice and quiet town, seems to cater to upscale demographics. The area is known for hot springs. We had a nice walk to the little castle at the top of the hill and through the narrow streets.
All in all, Monselice is a suitable stop for a road trip, away from the big cities, crowds and traffic. This hotel, however, needs an attitude adjustment, serious breakfast improvement, and some basic repairs (such as replacing threadbare carpet on the stairs). The building is constructed really well and the repairs should all be cosmetic in nature. In addition, for North American tourists there should be at least a notice somewhere about the swimming cap requirement for the pool - it would make this less of an unpleasant surprise.
I do not think we would recommend this place to friends nor will we come again.
