I’ve not been at the Aberdeen so I can’t speak about the specific hotel.
An eco AC is an eco friendly air conditioner that uses inverter technology to minimize electricity use, many now also use motion and humidity sensors that detect the number of people and humidity level in the room and adapt temperature and humidity to the needs based on preset levels.
Italians have rather advanced AC technology given the outrageous cost of electricity in Italy (I pay almost 60 euro cents per kWh in my house in Italy, all charges and taxes included, twice what I pay in California, the most expensive in the US after Hawaii).
One thing you will notice in all Italian hotels is that electricity is activated only after you insert your chip room key inside a slot located near the entry door. So when you go out and take the room key with you everything is shut off, including lights and AC (no waste of electricity allowed). In some hotels you can insert a credit card in place of the room key to make the electricity stay on but that trick is increasingly ineffective, hotels have figured it out and now the slot works only with the room key.
The other thing you will notice is that many hotels control AC temperatures centrally or at least set a minimum temperature below which you cannot lower the AC thermostat. In none of the hotels I stayed this July I could lower the room temperature below 23 degrees Celsius (73.4 Fahrenheit).
Italians at home can set the temperatures however they want, even at meat locker temperatures if they don’t mind the shocking energy bill, but, as I said, hotels put a clamp on what guests can do, so you will likely experience levels of room temperatures in hotels in Naples Italy that are above what you are used to in Naples Florida, without the possibility to lower the thermostat on your own.
