We returned here after an absence of a year and a half. Much proved the same: the hotel is situated in the centre of Ravenna, so all touristic attractions are well within walking distance. Parking facilities have deteriorated, however. It is no longe possible to park in fromt of the hotel using am hotel sign; rather, one has to park in a side street, where one has to pay from 8.00 h. onwards. This is inconvenient to say the least, as there were not many places unoccupied.
