Vinto House Salerno Downtown

There is a terrible experience we stay in this room! Our room is Morocco, room is dark although got few lamp… not very spacious and a lots of unnecessary “decorations”, the bedsheets is dark color(maybe is convenient to not change it) beware of the hotel/ hostel with not white bedsheets!! Few mosquito found in rooms! After stay at this rooms me and my husband suffer of bedbugs infections for 5days! It ruins our trip at next place😡😡😡 so keep away from this hotel everyone!!!

The first thing it is important to know about Vinto House is that it is not a house in normal parlance at all. Vinto House Downtown is a large second floor apartment divided (by apparently, judging by the noise from the next room, rather thin partitions) into four ensuite rooms themed by reference to four different capital cities – we had London – and a communal seating/breakfast area. It is not “set on the beachfront in Salerno”. It is two busy streets and a small park away from the seafront which is not a beach anyway. I suggest you check the satellite image carefully if the description of the location is important to you! It is at least served by a lift but you still have to first climb a flight of about ten steps before you get to the level of the lift! Our room at VH Downtown had some of the most ghastly and impractical furniture we have ever seen. There was no proper chair to sit on, just a square unit that might have been an additional bed. It fronts onto a very busy road and the double glazing was no match for the noise. The bed was reasonably comfortable but was one of those with a rim round it on which it was easy to catch your shins when walking round it because the room was quite small and there was little room to manoeuvre anyway. The bathroom was small but OK. The breakfast was truly lamentable. Little choice and the lady who turned up to run it microwaved the croissants – which, of course, made them soggy! The surrounding downtown area of Salerno is a very ordinary shopping area. It is a 5 minute walk to the Old Town which is, however, quite fun. We slept so badly – mainly because of the road noise - that we left after one night of our intended three night stay, writing off the cost paid in advance as experience. Overall VH Downtown certainly did not merit the adjective “luxury”. The room and the whole set up was pretty basic – perhaps just above backpacker standard but only a very modest AirBnB standard in my view.
