It’s a nice hotel, prices reasonable, I wish I was able to use the status instead of the elevator, I love the it’s in little Italy hearts, there are lots of options to eat or have a drink or coffee. Very convenient that you can walk to places like the bay. I am definitely going back to La Pensione.
