    On breakfast the employee refused to let me full my personal water bottle to take in a rispid way. Obliged me to drink in a glass at the table or pay for a new water bottle. Should be fired! Shame! Fortunately, the help desk reception Laura went to my room and gave me a water bottle for free.

    Only a couple of things were not perfect and they both come from breakfast: coffee was really meh.. and the yogurt was of a very low quality (my husband said the milk inside of it was coming from Romania). Nothing against Romania but there are many cheap yogurts with milk that don't travel for miles to arrive at our tables.

    The location is spectacular. Positioned just 13 min walk from the city center and with a stunning view of the harbor on the left and sunset on the right. Sleeping with the window open gave us the possibility to fall asleep with the sound of the waves. The restaurant on the ground floor, despite the few reviews on Google Maps has great pizza (I am Italian and I also make pizza) so trust me

    Loved the view of the sea

    The hotel is a bit far from the port, and getting there at night took some time. While this wasn't a major issue, it was the least favourable aspect of the hotel. Additionally, we had two noisy neighbours whose sounds were quite audible.

    I found this hotel fantastic because every room faces the sea. There was a massive storm during my stay, and it was an incredible experience to witness such a powerful storm from the comfort of my room for the first time. The breakfast was mediocre, but the view from the breakfast area was exceptional—you can enjoy your meal almost right by the sea. The room was great and came with a terrace, which was a nice bonus.

    Wifi was in and out (staff said it was an area-wide issue). Also, although the location of the hotel is beautiful, walking in to town or to the local beach required walking on a few narrow roads w/ no sidewalks where Italians are sometimes driving quite fast. We had a toddler in a stroller and didn’t always feel 100% safe.

    You hear everything from the rooms next to you and breakfast is basically coffee and croissant. Nothing healthy or glutenfree/lactotsefree. We went to eat the breakfast to the hotel near by

    The room was clean and the location is good. You can see the sea from your balcony.

    The acoustics are terrible and the hotel definitely needs a renovation...

    A wonderful view and the grandest balcony - the location and view are exceptional for this price! The staff is friendly and it was very clean. The facilities are sparse but for me that was alright.

    Room small and not like pictures. More basic than advertised. No mosquito nets on windows. Mattress was really bad and I could feel springs so reported to Reception, and she said she knew but can't do anything about it.... Breakfast is underwhelming.

    Staff are very friendly. Good Pizza in evenings. Location good too. Short walk to city centre.

    Outside the property area was quite rundown giving the wrong impression of what it was like inside

    Location right on the water fantastic view over the harbour in walking distance of the town. Breakfast room had fantastic panoramic view. Parking available outside property. Our room was large and airy with great sea view room number 221

    A short walk from town with lots of restaurants and shops. Great views but restricted privacy from the balcony since the hotel restaurant is right below. Really good family room with two bedrooms and a fridge

    Breakfast was ok, but could be little better, there was no vegetables or fruits what in Italy is little strange.

    Amazing view.... worth to take this room for the view. Everything in the room I needed, cosmetics, towels, hairdryer, close to the center, very quiet.
