Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight. The location was superb, nestled on the island at a very reasonable price. The rooms were a charming escape with fantastic views accessible through a medieval path between stone walls. The service was top-notch, handling my reservation seamlessly. The dining, while offering iced and frozen coffee, could use a little more variety. Overall, a great value for money choice in the heart of the action.
The hotel offers breathtaking views from the rooms, but some aspects may not meet all expectations. The service was satisfactory, and the location is excellent. Dining and facilities have room for improvement, but overall, it's a decent stay.
