The property itself and the staff were lovely. Great communication. It is a very convenient spot right near bus terminals and train station but not a very clean area.

Train station hotel works
For a hotel next to the train station, Symposium definitely serves its purpose. Clean, modern room, great bed, and easy access with WhatsApp instructions. The inside condition is nicer than the outside. Kind attendant in the breakfast room.

Clean and comfortable
Lovely apartment. Very comfortable bed. Spotlessly clean. Great bathroom. Decent breakfast. Friendly staff. Great location directly opposite train station. Would have appreciated self check in instructions (lock box) earlier. Only received 2 hours before check in and had to turn on my roaming data to receive instructions.

A block away from the train station
Hard to find at first, within first block from train station. Had to call host to gain access to the lock keys as I never received instructions by email. Probably because I flew in from the US and did not have an Italian sim card for my phone yet. This is a B&B on the third floor of a nondescript building with four rooms and private baths. Very clean. Good breakfast is being served from 8 to 9:30. Room needs to be vacated by 10, not 11 as stated on my reservation. All in all: first frustrating to check in, then pleasant stay. Would use again if closeness to train station is important.
