Breakfast
Guests often described the breakfast as very good, rich, abundant and delicious with particular praise for the quality products and attentive service. However, some guests felt that the breakfast could be improved, noting limited options and a need for greater variety. The breakfast was also described as simple but complete, sufficient but not exceptional and in some cases, lacking in basic breakfast staples.
Adjustments due to COVID-19 have also affected the breakfast experience with some guests expressing disappointment over reduced choices and service quality. Despite these critiques, the overall feedback suggests that many guests found the breakfast at Hotel Gennarino satisfactory and enjoyable for starting their day.
Rooms
For travelers with specific needs, the hotel provides disabled-accessible rooms, which have been recognized for including necessary facilities and modern utilities. The quality of sheets and towels stands out as well, adding to the overall comfort of the stay.
However, several reviews mention areas needing improvement. Some rooms suffer from being too small, poorly ventilated, outdated decor and occasional issues with air conditioning and room temperature. Cleanliness has been hit-and-miss with some rooms reportedly dusty, musty or suffering from neglect. Noise can also be a drawback in certain rooms and several guests have encountered malfunctioning amenities, such as problematic toilets, showers or TVs.
Overall, while Hotel Gennarino boasts a pleasant atmosphere and comfortable rooms, the experience can vary significantly between different rooms, indicating that a bit of luck may be involved in securing a stay that meets all expectations.
Beds
The presence of double pillows is appreciated, although several visitors mentioned that softer pillows would enhance comfort further.

Bedding quality is commended, although there were a few mentions of it being very old. Improvements have been suggested for certain aspects such as adding blankets and ensuring the beds are always in top condition.
In summary, Hotel Gennarino provides a generally positive sleeping experience with many guests enjoying the comfortable and clean beds, supported by excellent mattress quality. However, attention to the softness of pillows, adequate room space configuration and refreshment of bedding would further enhance guest satisfaction.
