    We knew that the building had no lift but the stairs were an issue with heavy suitcases. Just be prepared for this if you have trouble negotiating stairs.

    Fantastic location overlooking the sea. Wonderful rooftop terrace for breakfast ( extra cost ) or just to sit in the afternoon with a drink. Great position in a busy street with lots of bars, restaurants. Lovely manager who was willing to meet all requests. A relatively easy walk from the station with suitcases although some uphill parts.

    Yes include breakfast and steps

    Location and room was great the room was very big and is great for family with 2 kids. The steps to the room were a killer pack light as there are 40plus steps to the room. Location was amazing it was right in town. No parking which was a challenge as you can not park in the old part of town. You will need to walk a bit to accommodate the parking. As for the hotel it is no longer a B and B so you will need to pay for breakfast if you want at hotel! The Rooftop Sunsets from location were truly amazing!!

    Pictures of the suite I booked vs the room we got was very different but that didn’t matter to us much. We booked a king suite but the bed was queen size. Room itself was dated but we didn’t spend much time inside anyway. Shower didn’t drain properly. The TV didn’t work (remote didn’t work either). Some of the outlets were broken. They only give you new towels every 3 days. This is a beach town so we were showering a lot but they did make an exception and give us more which was really nice. The room was lacking basic necessities such as cups, an iron, bottle opener, garbage can (there was only a very small one inside the bathroom). There was a coffee maker and cups in the main lobby but it would be nice to have a few in the room considering we booked a private terrace and would have loved to enjoy some wine up there.

    Location was amazing and view from up top the Terrance equally as beautiful. They let us check in early. Instructions to get to the property (where to park our car etc were good). They responded quickly to what’s app messages. The suite itself was dated, but it was clean. Overall, it was good value for the money, clean and the staff was lovely.

    The room wasn't cleaned every day, only made the bed and gave fresh towels every other day. There were also signs to not unpack on the extra bed, we could have used the space as there were only a couple of hangers. There is also an extra charge if you bring any sand into the room, which is quite difficult for a seaside town.

    The location is incredible. The terrace was also incredible, we watched the sunset every evening before going to dinner. The bed was very comfortable and large, and the bathroom was modern and well done. They also had a couple of things that you could take to the beach, so we took a couple of padels and a ball. We had slept in the first day which we ordered breakfast, they made sure to remind us and knock before breakfast was over.

    Truthfully, we don’t have one bad thing to say about our stay at this property. Our experience was delightful. One warning we would give to future travelers staying here is to be aware that there is no elevator, so you do have to climb up two sets of stairs. It was quite a process for us with our heavy luggage, but we managed.

    My fiancé and I absolutely loved our stay at Dolce Vita B&B. The room exceeded our expectations and was very spacious, allowing us ample space to store our belongings and relax. Our room also had the most beautiful view overlooking the ocean. The outdoor terrace, with lots of chairs and a stunning view, was perfect for watching the sunrise and sunset, both of which we did. The location was more than ideal as all the local shops, restaurants, and the beach were right at our fingertips. We wish we had more time in this beautiful place and would highly recommend staying here.

    Street noise was noticeable but not a deal breaker for us. Easy access to everything was a fair trade off. There are a few flights of stairs to enter the room level where we stayed. This was a bit challenging for my knees but the friendly staff helped with our luggage when we arrived.

    We really loved the location of Dolce Vita B&B. Our room was spotless and had a very large comfortable bed, balcony overlooking the lovely streets below in the heart of town. We enjoyed the breakfasts served on the rooftop deck overlooking the water, also great for evening sunset views. Management was helpful and welcoming as well.

    Remember, their second floor is our third floor and there is no lift. The apartment is nothing special and the air-conditioner doesn't really quite make it to the bedroom, although at night, it's tolerable in the bedroom.

    Without a doubt, the best location for being in the center of the city. Small private balcony literally hangs above the sea. Shared rooftop lounging area is spectacular. Nice staff, willing to help.
