Escorts and made up charges

Charged my card for cleaning. When cleaning was included. Almost a brothel given both sides of the room were occupied 24/7 by prostitutes. Surly management and inclined to steal as per above. Do not recommend under any circumstances. Go elsewhere. Not everyone in this beautiful city behaves like this!

The hotel itself is very nice. Most staff were great. Buffet breakfast was good, something there for everyone. Hotel is about 150mtrs to bus stop and train station so was very convenient for us. Lots of graffitti and rubbish in the area which is a shame. Lovely restaurant (Mavi) next door. Will stay again for convenience

Nice hotel with excellent public facilities. Nice, friendly staff. Good breakfast with nice choice and fresh coffees served to your table. Rooms a bit minimalistic but still comfortable. Location adjacent to Bari Central Station, so handy for the train connections to the airport, but suffers from the type of people that hang around outside of stations (although no problems experienced). Would stay again.

After traveling 18 hours We arrive late and the night shift from desk was very rude. We ask for orientation for any place closer to have something to eat he didn’t knew and no even bother to welcome. At that point we fell sleep starving. The breakfast was very good and the place is very clean location is little questionable.

Conveniently located to station, main shopping and old town. Bari is a beautiful city. The room was adequate but we were just there to return our hire car and be picked up for drive to Naples. For this it was very convenient. Breakfast was good and bed was comfortable. The lounge was also pleasant to sit in for a while with a drink.
