 The location was OK for me as I like to walk around cities but if you are not so mobile it could be a problem as the nearest Metro station is a 10 15 min walk away However there are trams very close to the hotel and there are lots of shops and restaurants close by The Duomo and centre of town are about a 10 15 min walk also 
 This is a great hotel with really good sized rooms great buffet breakfast and very attentive staff
