From Wolfgang Schwarz - Germany
Nice Room with quite small bed, small but nicely furnished bath room, clean, friendly staff, location near to the center, that often means "very loud" and it is.

Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the city and very helpful. The only thing was that I asked to pay for my room in cash when I arrived, but my credit card was charged although I was told that it wouldnt be. Otherwise it was a pleasant stay.

Considering the high cost, what you are really paying for is the location. It is in walking distance to the Galleria de l'Accademia (Michelangelo's David) and to the Duomo as well as to the restaurant populated areas and the train station. The room was tackily decorated with dim lighting but otherwise decent. The shower stall does not have walls, so half the bathroom floor gets wet. Reception is on the 3rd floor while rooms are on the 2nd floor, so it was annoying to have to go up to drop off your key before heading out. Breakfast is ok; we never ate there. Internet is expensive; best to go to 1 of the 5 internet cafes around the corner. The manager/owner was very difficult about us leaving a day early stating that we could only cancel through Venere, which is not true. We managed to "escape" by paying at night with the evening staff and dropping off the key early in the morning. In general, staff were helpful; the hotel provides a guide to the city.

Staff and service were both excellent, very friendly and helpful. But the room was tiny, which I expected, until I saw what some friends were staying in just around the corner! For 10 euro a night less they had a much larger, better furnished room with a double bed with private bathroom and airconditioning. Made me feel a bit ripped off - although theirs could have been a special deal. Having said that, I would stay again at K and A if the pricing was better.

Easily the worst hotel we stayed at in Europe during our three week visit. I'd rate it barely a step above a hostel. Perhaps we were unlucky and got the worst room (which we tried to change). Perhaps by employing students the hotel managed to keep their costs and service levels low. We'll not be going back there. Ever.

The service was nice, but the girl who attend me, oncly speak italian, and sometimes that difficult the communication. But was good in general.

Very good position. Room was great. Was worth paying a little extra for the private bathroom. Some of the rooms were not very close to the common bathrooms. Great hotel for the cost.

Not suitable for families, cheap and cheerful type accommodation. Located on the first floor with lift access. No toilet or shower facilities in the room.

A nice hotel, with friendly and helpfull staff, within walking distance from the citycenter. The employees also were very helpful even holding our bags until an evening train. Overall it was very good compared to other Italy hotels...

The breakfast was not included in the price while we booked the hotel under bed and breakfast list therefore we had to pay extra for it and also the breakfast is poor for the money we paid

The hotel was conviniently located near the train station. Room did not have shower. Fairly clean. Management was friendly.

From ER - USA
I know now that the bookings at Kursaal were very low for the time of my stay, and that other hotels of equal or superior quality were available for as little as half the price. I feel a bit duped, then, into paying much more than I could have or probably should have.

Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Room was adequate with a nice little view over some nearby rooftops. The included breakfast was what you would expect for this price but was more than enough to start the day.
