Hotel Molise 2

We stayed at four different hotels during out trip to Italy, but this one was the worst. While people at the front desk were friendly and accommodating, the rest of the hotel leaves much to be desired. Our room was so small that after laying a suitcase on the floor, it blocked my way to the bed. The room had no space for a closet, only a bunch of wall cabinets. It also smelled like smoke, and, at various times throughout the day, I smelled cigarette smoke coming through the vents. I was surprised to see an ashtray in our room, provided that the hotel claims they are smoke-free. Our windows had thick blinds that had been drawn from the outside and remained that way during our entire stay, which I thought was a bit strange. The area around the hotel was underwhelming--it seemed very residential and there were no places to eat or shop. Any descent place to get food was within a 10-min bus ride. On the plus side, WiFi at the hotel was strong and stable.

Hotel is old and needs renovation. Daytime counter staff doesn't speak any English which made it hard to even ask to collect my stored luggage.
