9.2/10 Wonderful! (869 reviews)

Its a very nice 5star hotel on a nice area at Genova. Breakfast is good, rooms are very nice and clean. Parking costs around 35-40 euro per day! All though you can easily park outside of the hotel at blue zones for just 2euro per hour. Staff is friendly and nice except the receptionist that we had a bad moment with her. She gave us keys for another room not ours. We found out that, because we were waiting for our bags over 20min and when we asked where are they, they told us on another room than that we were to... If i havent asked about them we would still wait for em.... Unacceptable for a 5star hotel... And she said just a sorry. Nothing else..

8.6/10 Excellent! (28 reviews)

We were initially placed in a small 10 x 10 room that had zero daylight and limited space and accommodations. The twin bed was a dog bed and I refuse to allow my daughter to sleep on it. For an additional 160 we were moved into a larger place which was better. the owners speaks zero English and are very rude. The town is wonderful. The rooftop restaurant attached to the complex the apartment is in is wonderful. If it wasn’t for the rest of the community and the nice people in that village, I’m not sure vacation would’ve been successful based on their very unfriendly demeanor. I also spent a good portion of the day trying to get cash for her because she refused to take a card to pay the balance of the room.
