Hotel Internazionale

8/10 Good
"This hotel has a bit of old world charm and great staff. My wife and I both were impressed with the whole experience. Only slight negative is that there is construction going on around the building that makes navigating around the intersection a bit of a challenge. We would definitely stay here again."
