the main problem is that most of the rooms face a busy road, and if you are sensitive to traffic noise, as I am, i would look elsewhere. the interior is drab and functional, clean. breakfast was OK. I would have expected more fruit. Staff were pleasant and friendly.

Hotel is modern, although not lavish. Staff was aloof - not very warm or becoming. The rooms ending with 1-3 (like 101, etc.) are small and there is a nasty smell on that side of the building - do not take one of those rooms. The triple rooms are very large, separate beds though. There might be better hotels in Padua and near Venice, but the price is reasonable and the location is pretty good.

We stayed here for one night on our honeymoon in April 2005. Huge rooms, very modern and clean and largest bathroom we had in Italy. Breakfast was included with our room and are room was a little over $100. Great location. 10 minute walk to the heart of Padua and a few minutes to the highway. Ideal if you are flying in and out of the Venice Airport, 20 min. drive to the airport. Definitely would recommend this hotel! We are planning on returning next year and will be staying at this hotel again. They do have free parking, its in a secured garage around the corner form the hotel.
