This is my initial review so it might change as time goes. Because we are on a higher floor it s about 1000 degrees up here (aka at least 80F in our room). I m not sure if this is because of Italian regulations, our own incompetency with the thermostat as foreigners or the case of a broken thermostat but it s is super duper hot up here.
My biggest issue with all this is that our room has literally no view. As you can see from the attached picture we have here, there is not-so-beautiful facade of scaffolding with a thick plastic (seemingly dated 2018, artist unknown) covering what I imagine would otherwise be a rather fine view. At 148 for 2 of the nights then ~$ 108- 114 for the other 3 in the offseason (November) I have to say, I m rather hmmmmm about whether or not I m getting ripped off here. Due to the scaffolding blockage on the window we can t get any decent airflow in our room to bring down the Death Valley in July level temperature happening here.
The hotel itself is definitely giving off the whole modern/work conference vibe, which is fine. Seems decently quiet when the windows are closed. Everywhere including our room seem clean. I m always a big fan of hard floors like this hotel has because it prevents bed bugs from moving in as well as the gross collection of essences and dirt that carpet collects from its guests.
Location-wise the Starhotel Michelangelo is located with easy access to public transportation. Tbh though, the hotel is easily within walking distance of the city center. It s about 15 minutes at a fast clip through neighborhoods (probably 20-25 minutes for slower walkers). Or you can add on another 5 and take the route along the river which is very pretty. Walk if you are capable for sure.
