My stay at Best Western Plus Hotel Farnese was decent overall, with comfortable beds and a variety of breakfast options that I really enjoyed. However, the location felt a bit far from the city center, making it less convenient for evening outings. I also encountered issues with unclear information regarding charges for parking and breakfast. Still, the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my time there.

My stay at Best Western Plus Hotel Farnese was generally enjoyable, but not without some disappointments. The location is decent for those traveling by car, as it's just a short drive into the central area of Parma. However, the hotel's decor and balcony felt a bit underwhelming, resembling a prison courtyard more than a relaxing outdoor space. Yet, the comfortable beds and great dining options helped redeem my experience.
