ReviewsLa Fortezza received 4/5 from
TripAdvisors. Though there were a few varied opinions on the décor, visitors complimented the hotel's helpful staff along with the hotel's location.
The room was a nice size and to have a bathtub was great. It was convenient to everything. Again, the front desk was wonderful.

The room was very quiet and the hotel is placed in a quiet zone. The staff was very nice and very professional. The location of the hotel is quite near to the center, about 10 minutes walking.
