We had a wonderful stay. The room was super clean and the person who greeted us was wonderful, no complaints at all. It just so happens that the sea right across from it has a sewage line and walking towards it from under the bridge was a nasal nightmare. With a car you are absolutely okay to stay here because you can drive to a cleaner swimming spot.

The room and especially the bathroom were very outdated. The TV wasn’t working. Third floor with no elevator. Breakfast starts at 8AM. I had to catch a ferry to the Aeolian islands at 7AM so I couldn’t take advantage of it the first day. Also no coffee machine or refrigerator in the room. Only one vending machine in the building with no coffee. Despite everything, the view of Stromboli from my room was priceless!

3rd floor. No elevator. A/c was old . Cover was hanging off. Shower was small. Had a plastic mat , that was dirty. Had a hard tv with the tv. Receptionist said she was going to fix a/c & tv never did. Also asked to change room to lower floor. Her response was no, because we booked an economy room with Expedia. And we couldn’t lock door. We checked out a day earlier. 6 flights of stairs.

Accueil en libre service mais avec infos pratiques ok via le site Expedia + parking sur rue pas top contrairement au descriptif. Prix imbattable par rapport à la qualité du produit, petit-déjeuner inclus. Un conseil : éviter une soirée de séminaire, sympa mais bruyant particulièrement la nuit ( cf. Isolation phonique très deficiente inside.

Premesso che la camera fosse l’economy. Stanza Rumorosa, assenza di privacy tra noi e i vicini di stanza. Bagno inconcepibile per il 2025, doccia sprovvista di cabina a ridosso di finestra water e bidet, presente una tendina a dir poco inutile, post doccia impossibile utilizzare i servizi senza prima dover aspettare che si asciughi. Colazione dalle 8 alle 11, ma senza comunicare che è FINO AD ESAURIMENTO SCORTE, raggiunta la sala alle ore 9/9:15 giá praticamente terminato quasi tutto. Due stelle grazie alla signora delle pulizie, cordiale e sorridente che incontrata tra le scale dei 3 piani (a piedi) almeno sollevava un pó il morale da tutto quello di cui sopra.
