Hotel is dated and relatively clean, lady at the front desk was lovely. The place is run by a sister and brother. We met the owner (brother) on check in, not overly friendly but polite. We asked for recommendations on where to go for dinner and he simply said 'here', the restaurant and bar remained empty for the full 3 days we were there - quite glad we didn't opt to try eating there based on our experiences with breakfast. As our first stop in Italy, we were really expecting a nice breakfast but good god, it was terrible. The 'hot' plate was dead cold and housed a few cold hard boiled eggs (that were green on the inside) and cold scrambled eggs that were inedible. Bread was stale, pastries were stale, fruit was in shocking condition - we survived on a hard boiled egg and yogurt as they were the safest options. By far the worst breakfast we've had. The AC unit in our room wasn't working which we brought to the attention of the owner. He came into the room to fiddle with the remote for a bit, told us it was working and to set it at a higher temp to get cool air -- ie. set it for 25 if we want 20. This did not work at all and we slept with the door to the balcony open so that we could avoid the stuffiness and humidity. Had to get ear plugs as street noise was awful and kept us up all night the first night. The value is ok for what we paid but if staying in Battipaglia, do yourself a favour and find a nicer hotel.
