What's in 'all comforts'?
During the same trip to Rome in the same avenue (see post of May 24th) I found the following street sign. It announces all comforts 20 meters to my left. After hours of walking in the sun you can't image how much tempting a sign like this becomes! I already had an hotel booked but I was ready to loose my reservation for this promised land. I imagine myself immersed in a tub filled with cool water, having a cold drink while hearing soothing music.
My wife brought me back to reality saying that we should get moving. Occasionally, during the trip, the sign would haunt me, sparking my imagination to picture it as a oasis where a fresh breeze runs in the middle of an arid city desert.
When I got my hands on a web connection I went to look what amenities were included in 'all comforts'. This is what I found:
- Air conditioning
- Credit card accepted
- Groups welcome
- Historic building
- Laundry service
- Lift/elevator
- Pets accepted
- Room service - limited hour
- Front desk - 24 hour
- Front desk - fax service
- Personal newspapers
- Tourist information
- Limousine service
- Rent a car in the hotel
- Shuttle service from and/or to the airport
- Baby sitter
I think that the owner's of Hotel Duca d'Alba have a very broad interpretation of what all comforts mean! I also question what 'personal newspapers' mean? Although being a newly parent I have to say that the 'Baby sitter' amenity almost convinced me that in fact Duca d'Alba offers all comforts.
