I am not a fan of leaving reviews, because I am convinced that a review is very subjective! But, I just can't help but comment on the Criss Hotel in Rimini. We stayed at the hotel from 01/31/2018 to 02/07/2018. We come to Rimini very often and had to visit various 3* hotels. The Criss Hotel is the best thing that has happened to us in the last 3 years!! Great budget three-piece!!
Advantages:
The location is on the first coastline, a 5-minute walk from the sea. There are 4 routes near the bus stop. Quiet and clean area.
Food - we took half board (breakfast and dinner). The food was delicious. There are a lot of pastries at breakfast (croissants, pies, muffins, cookies), cereals, muesli, milk, yogurt, tea, coffee - all in unlimited quantities. The dinner was varied every day and portioned, consisted of 3 courses. Pasta for the first, meat or fish with a side dish for the second, and sweet or fruit for dessert.
The room is small but cozy. The most important thing was the warmth! Those who have ever been to Rimini in winter, probably faced the problem of heating.. Italians save a LOT of heating. We didn't have a problem with this for the first time in a long time. It was always warm!
The rooms were cleaned every day. The room has a hairdryer and a free safe.
The staff is all very friendly and courteous.
Other advantages - there is a spring with drinking water 50 meters from the hotel. This made it possible to save money. A pleasant and convenient bonus :-)
It is convenient to get to the large shopping center Le Befane by bus number 4 without a transfer (about 25 minutes drive)
Of the cons: well, the only thing is the lack of nearby grocery stores. The nearest one is a 15-minute walk from the hotel. But this is not a disadvantage of the hotel in any case.
A great hotel for little money! I recommend it!
