Hotel Leon D'oro

I arrived by train around lunchtime after a longer journey. With only one or two nights to stay in Verona I found it best to get a hotel near the train station. Hotel Leon is very close and seemed to be a comfortable 4 star hotel if you look at the photos. I forgot to read what the guests say, and forgot to look at pictures taken by guests. That was a mistake. The hotel is little old fashioned. You will find the reception and lounge in the same area and you will also find good places to sit and enjoy a drink from the bar or something else. Good furniture here. Reception staff are unfortunately not the welcoming types. Don't try to get your room until 14, even if ready. No flexibility at all. I went to the bar and bought a drink and relaxed on a good couch waiting for my room. After 1400 I went to the reception and asked for my room. However, they told me know that my VISA was not working so I could only get a room if I had another card or cash. As I mentioned before, the staff is not the welcoming types and I really do not like their arrogant style. I always travel with two credit cards and some cash, but the room was prepaid using my VISA, so I insisted on trying to use the card. It didn't make me more popular. However my VISA worked very weel. I do not accept a rejection when I say my card works and in this case I would not take any risk paying twice with a new card. I was now given the key to the room. A spacefull neat room with a good bed and good lighting. Bathroom was not acceptable. Calcified faucets well worn and impossible to clean. Worse, it still had mold and a shower head completely calcified. Water went in different directions. I travel a lot, but this is the first time ever I find a moldy bath. During the night the weather turned bad and the outside temperature dropped to around 10. I tried to get the air condition to a normal temperature, but not possible. It only gave cold air.
