Frommer's Review

It's just a few short blocks up the shop-lined Via Banchi di Sopra (its name changes to Via Montanini) to this 15th-century palazzo. Most rooms here are plain but large, though the decor is livened up in some rooms with old-fashioned bevel-glass mirrors in the wardrobe doors or an antique chest of drawers. A few rooms are quite pleasant indeed, with painted wrought-iron bed frames in a 19th-century country style and worn terra-cotta floors or medieval stonework walls. The bathrooms are very compact, with amusing anachronisms -- they've installed heated towel racks but haven't yet been hit with the fuzzy towel revolution. The beds are mercifully firm, and while there's some moped and chatter noise outside most windows, it usually disappears by bedtime.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
