Pros:||- Angela, the proprietor, is extremely kind and friendly, always available by phone; ||- The building where this B&B is located was constructed rather recently, with everything in excellent condition;||- Everything is immaculately clean and well-maintained;||- Our room (queen bed and private bath) was quite spacious;||- This is a modest size B&B (actually a 3 bedroom apartment) with only three rooms available, so there is not a huge crowd of people;||- Location is excellent, just a short stroll to Piazza Roma in the center of Ancona;||- There is a six screen multiplex just across the street showing first-run films;||- Free wifi (at a slower speed but normal for most of Italy);||- Rates seem fair, given the central location;||- Pets are permitted with no extra charge.||||Cons:||- The mattress and pillows are made from a rather hard foam (rubber?) which took awhile to get used to;||- While we had our own bath, the other two bedrooms shared a bath down the hall. Since the floors are all hard surfaces, there was quite a lot of noise during the night when other guests were coming and going or when using the bathroom;||- The B&B is located on Via San Martino at a point where traffic is speedily exiting a long tunnel and one of the main entry points for the center of Ancona. Traffic noise can be quite intense at times;||- There is no elevator for reaching the B&B, located one floor up from the street level.||||All-in-all we had a pleasant three night stay here. This is a rather basic B&B, but it is immaculately maintained and Angela is a joy. However, if noise is an issue for you, it might be wise to bring ear plugs (just in case).
