Balarm Hostel and Bar

+ The breakfast was nice, the staff were helpful. The court garden very pleasant. It was close to the railway station and the coach station. Not too far from the city centre.

- The surrounding area looks a bit rough and run down, with litter all over the place and lots of rough sleepers.The whole area has clearly seen better days.

+ The hotel is in the city center, the receptionists are very nice.

+ La posizione

- Portare i bagagli dal parcheggio che si trovava a 400 m e portarli per le scale fini al 3 piano e pagare 30€ per parcheggiare

+ La puzza della stanza, la gentilezza del personale

+ I loved everything about this hotel. It is a modest establishment, not five star luxury. That said, I have rarely seen so much character and attention to detail in this category. From the moment you open the squeaky glass doors of the entrance hall and take the vintage elevator up to the glorious old world reception desk, you feel like you step into a living piece of history. Everything was clean and tidy and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I could feel that everything is managed with a lot of love and care. Breakfast is excellent with many high quality pastries to choose from and coffee is made to order by a barista.

- My stay was too short.

+ ナポリからフェリーで来たため朝8時半頃の到着でしたが、荷物を預けたい旨お伝えすると、チェックイン時間のかなり前にも関わらず宿泊するお部屋を開けて下さりました。また、チェックアウト後も荷物を預かっていただき、スタッフの方も親切な方ばかりで大変満足なサービスでした。 中央駅にも近く、他クアットロ・カンティや大聖堂にも徒歩で行ける距離にあり立地がとても良かったです。 レトロを感じれるエレベーターやお部屋で、立地やサービスを考えるととてもお得に滞在できたと思います。

- シャワーの温度調節が気をつけないといけなかったことです。

+ Quite honestly, I chose this hotel because it was very close to the train station, had a 24-hour reception, and was inexpensive – I can confirm these advantages. It's a good place for a stopover or just a place to sleep a night, max two. Given our travel style (backpacking), it served this purpose perfectly. And from this perspective, it lacked nothing. It was clean, there were towels, hot water, and plenty of space. If you plan to stay longer, renting an apartment makes more sense - will be cheaper on a per-night-basis and much more comfortable.

- We didn't know how to turn on the air conditioning—it turned out it was controlled from the front desk. It's a shame this information wasn't provided upon check-in. Fortunately, all we had to do was ask for it to be turned on, and the room was warm. There was a high step down from the bathroom to the room, on which I managed to fall quite painfully (fortunately without consequences).
