The hotel itself is quite comfortable, not a five-star place but perfectly adequate to the needs of any normal traveler. They offer a hot breakfast, with scrambled eggs, sausage, and bacon along with the cold items, and the staff were quite friendly. The location is right across the street from the main Udine train station and in the same block as the Autostazione (= bus station) -- very convenient, but possibly a little seedy at night. One taxi driver, dropping me off fifty meters from the entrance after midnight, warned me not to stop and talk with the three guys hanging around outside the hotel. (For the record: I didn't stop, and nothing bad happened.)
