Pension Michelangelo

The apartment was peaceful, and being able to leave the key in a mailbox at checkout was convenient. But the value for money felt poor, and I would suggest staying no more than 12 hours if you can. There is plenty of space across two floors, though the place feels worn. The showerhead was loose and barely attached, and the shower cabin doors were almost off their hinges 🚿. Since it's a rooftop apartment with no sun protection, it gets unbearably hot during the day and isn't comfortable to spend much time in 🌞. The sofa bed in the living area was so worn that I couldn't get a decent night's sleep on it. The kitchen had a coffee machine, toaster, and kettle, which was useful, but the supplied coffee pods were undrinkable ☕. There was a persistent musty smell in the bathroom that got worse unless it was constantly ventilated. I also wouldn't drink the tap water, just to be on the safe side 💧. For a short, quiet stay, it might work if you can put up with the maintenance problems. For a longer trip, I'd look elsewhere.

This was the worst, most horrible place I've stayed. There was no staff downstairs, nobody spoke English, and the internet didn't work. Even the Wi-Fi password was wrong. I messaged to ask for the password, then someone I didn't know came into my room. I thought it was the owner, but it was a stranger, and I felt threatened. With no staff there, I had to change rooms and call the police.

It's a cute, roomy apartment, but keep in mind there isn't an elevator or any ground floor room. If you don't want to climb five flights of stairs, pick a room numbered one through five.

The price-to-comfort ratio is really good, and the owner arranged for our late arrival. The staff couldn't speak English, and parking was a hassle, but I still give it four stars.
