Hotel review - Best Western Plus Hotel Expo, Villafranca di Verona

Be careful what type of room you buy and what you receive.
When we checked in we received a room that wasn´t what we paid for. We had to come back and ask again and then we received our room.

They didn´t even apologize. Maybe this is something they practice often.

Free parking places and free internet . Disappointing breakfast.

You can see the difference between the rooms, right?
