Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Room Mate Luca is known for its superb location, placing guests within easy walking distance of the city center and many attractions, including a 15-minute walk from the train station, with the Duomo visible from some rooms. The breakfast, available until noon, is a highlight for many, with a good selection of teas, coffee, and food; a few guests, however, felt the breakfast variety could be improved. Guests appreciate the modern and clean rooms, with comfortable beds and effective air conditioning, though some found the rooms a medium size.

an ok stay , nothing too exciting

inconvenient location limited menu

i must admit , the location was not as central as i had hoped. it meant a bit of a trek to get to the main attractions , which was not ideal after a long day of sight-see , and the room service menu was quite limited . the limited menu options were a bit of a letdown after a long day of meetings , to be honest.
