"What a waste of money and holiday days! The rooms are not air-conditioned. Our ‘standard’ room was overlooking the back of the hotel, over the rubbish and the deserted and dilapidated building of the once-upon-a-time Funicolare. There was a constant loud humming sound coming from the back of the ..."
