Reale House Rooms

The location is very convenient, which I guess helps places like this get away with such poor accommodation. The first room was coffin-sized, with no natural light because the window blinds couldn’t be raised. The toilet wouldn’t flush, and everything else was dated, rusty, broken or extremely poor. The second room we were eventually moved to was better than the first, though still dated and unappealing. The staff there were helpful, much more so than the owner, Signora Cinzia. An appallingly bad stay.

The room for two was really tiny, and the bathroom shower was so cramped you couldn’t turn around. Supplies were very limited: just one small shampoo packet to share between two people for two days. The online listing said breakfast was included, but when I asked, I was told it wasn’t a B&B. Not a happy stay.

Very disappointing. The host didn’t meet her obligations and didn’t provide the advertised breakfast coupons or water bottles. The toilet leaked and the floors weren’t clean. They only pulled the sheets up, didn’t really make the beds, and left the room garbage. It felt like they wiped the surfaces to impress, without doing a proper clean.

The location was the only reason I gave this B&B two stars. I stayed for four days in May. The person who greeted me didn’t understand English, and the rooms facing away from the street were dark. The sheets smelled bad even after they were changed. Breakfast was at a nearby bakery, but it was closed on Monday, so we got croissants that were past their expiry date instead. Wi-Fi was slow and didn’t reach the whole accommodation properly. For this price, I expected a lot more.
