Colazione da incubo

Camera con arredi un pò retrò , letto singolo piccolissimo., Colazione impresentabile composta da una serie di merendine confezionate , e per finire la mattina, dopo il pagamento non è stato possibile avere la ricevuta perchè il personale presente non era abilitato , ho dovuto attendere il giorno seguente e solo dopo sollecito mi hanno inviato fattura

Vicinissimo al centro storico

Ho soggiornato in una camera con un grande balcone con vista sulle colline del paese. Il bagno è molto spazioso. Colazione e cena di buona qualità e con la possibilità di richiedere alimenti vegani e vegetariani. Ho apprezzato la cortesia dello staff.

Prenotato e pagato on line. Arrivata mail di conferma del soggiorno. Alle 23 arrivati davanti la struttura il responsabile mi dice che non può accettare il nostro soggiorno in quanto ha problemi di internet. Alle 23 ho dovuto cercare un altro posto per dormire. Poca professionalità e nessuna correttezza.

Buon soggiorno.

Abitualmente quando mi reco da quelle parti ho un altro albergo di riferimento, ma essendo quello in questa occasione chiuso sono stato consigliato di soggiornare all' Ariosto. Mi sono trovato bene e senz'altro ci tornerò quando il mio tradizionale albergo di riferimento non potrà ospitarmi. In ogni caso lo consiglierò.
