    There wasn’t much hot water and we were only given two bottles of water.

    Very friendly staff and really close location to the cable car the easily takes you to Taormina. The surrounding beaches are very busy during the day so it was nice to be able to utilize the pool, and lay in the sun shine.

    Could have done with a bit of shade around the pool, very limited shade in the afternoon and none in the morning

    The staff were very helpful, there was a problem with the first bedroom but they switched us to another one without any problems. The location was good, a 5 minute walk to the cable car or the beach.

    There was nothing we didn't like.

    Hotel is in an excellent location steps away from restaurants, the cable car, beach and supermarket. Beautifully decorated, quiet and relaxing surroundings. Nice pool with stunning views. Staff were nice, accommodating and helpful. Breakfast had many choices and was tasty. Overall, a great stay and would stay here again and recommend to others.

    although it does not deserve the 4*, it should be max 3*, you can see that at some point it was renovated, although it was done quite poorly. The room was not too spacious, very little space between the bed and desk to get to the balcony. The wardrobe looked unfinished as it lacked door, the balconies are not even divided and you can just see your neighbors. THE TOILETS: oh my, the shower was tiny, dirty and full of limestone, the shower door felt like it’s gonna fall apart at any second. One of the great aspects of this hotel also turned out to be quite poor - the swimming pool - it was full of dirt as if nobody vacuumed it and the deck was smelly, you could feel the smell of pee, the wooden deck is also a hazard as the panels are sticking out, the deckchairs have been ready to be replaced for the last 5years probably. Also the cirridors look very bad, awful floors and not enough lighting. As I mentioned before -the only upsides of this place are the location and a very nice reception staff, two young women checked us in and were nothing but sweet and helpful.

    Overall the hotel was not all bad, the location and staff were the biggest upsides,

    Located close to the beach and cable car to Taormina city. We got upgraded to a beautiful room with a balcony and sea view. The beach in front is great for free diving and snorkelling. Great location to visit Etna mountain.
