After reading all the bad reviews, I was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the building is older, but is still in good functioning shape. Despite some dent marks on the walls, all three elevators were working. Our room on the 11th floor was clean and roomy. No cigarette smell and the carpet was relatively new. The bathroom has marble(?) countertop and floor tiles. Looks elegant but the grouts in-between do need cleaning/resurfacing.
The front desk was very helpful. Since a room was available, we were able to check-in around 11 am to drop off our luggage.
With its proximity to the airport, we were able to take Volabus (24-hr Pass for 10 Euro) to and from the City Center for our sightseeing. Inexpensive and convenient.
Also perfect for an early airline flight.
Did not try the restaurant, so no comment.
I will definitely stay at Tower Genova Airport Hotel if I were to visit Genoa again.
