Loved our 2 night stay here. We wanted somewhere close to the port that would allow us to easily visit La Maddelena and this was it. The hotel is a 25 minute walk from the port (or a 5 min drive). The facilities were good- enjoyed using the pool on our last day. Breakfast was also great. Only issues we had were a faulty toilet, which staff looked into.

Highly recommended!

We loved our stay in this place. The rooms are super cute. Staff very nice and friendly. We got some welcome drinks which is an unexpected bonus :) Great breakfast with a nice view to the pool. Free parking on site. Everything is super clean and well decorated. You can walk to the town centre but we preferred to drive since it was very hot. We recommend this to anyone staying in Palau.

This is not 4 star hotel. Pool sunbeds are so dirty, overall no one clean the garden of the property, room does not have shampoo and very cheap soap, not sure even what it is. Overall I drove just to this hotel to this area so we can have relaxing day at the pool and it was very disgusting. Breakfast is very mediocre too.

Wir haben diese Unterkunft für 3 Nächte gebucht und haben ein Zimmer direkt neben der Rezeption erhalten. Positiv zu erwähnen ist, dass die Wege in der weitläufigen Anlage recht kurz für uns waren und wir immer einen kostenfreien Parkplatz gefunden haben. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend und auch hilfsbereit bei Fragen rund um den Aufenthalt auf Sardinien. Leider gibt es auch einige negative Punkte die uns aufgefallen sind: - Matratzen durchgelegen, Federn spürt und sieht man bereits - schlechter Zustand des Badezimmers; Schimmel in den Fugen an der Duschkabine, in der Dusche und am Waschbecken - schlechte Beleuchtung des Zimmers - trotz eines gut sichtbaren Aufklebers im Badezimmer am Waschbecken mit dem Hinweis an die Gäste, dass sie bitte umweltbewusst handeln sollen (Handtuch auf dem Boden = neue Handtücher / Handtücher aufgehängt = erneute Benutzung) wurden unsere Handtücher täglich erneuert, obwohl diese ordnungsgemäß an den Wandhaken hingen.. das war uns aufgrund des gut sichtbaren „Hinweises“ am Wasserhahn dann doch etwas unbegreiflich… - Wasserhahn in der Dusche kaputt, Temperatur ließ sich schwer einstellen - schlechte Auswahl beim Frühstück, täglich gleiche Auswahl (1x Salami, 1x Käse, 1x Wurst - Sorte) - Bilder der Anzeige scheinen wohl sehr alt… - trotz WLAN-Repeater kein WLAN im Zimmer - Pool scheint etwas in die Jahre gekommen zu sein (gelber Rand oberhalb des Wassers)

Décevant

Le personel a l’accueil et qui font les chambres sont très serviables, très professionnels, gentils et accueillants, merci! Parcontre, la chambre était sale, le sol, la douche et les lavabos. Le matelas n’était recouvert que d’un drap fin et le matelas en dessous était vieux et très sale. Le diner était tres mauvais et très cher: fritures de légumes, puis sur nos plats: tomates pourries, poisson congelé avec une couche de mélange douteux aux olives, qui je suppose était sensé être un peu gratiné au four mais il était froid, la salade ne paraissait pas fraîche. Nous n’avons pas osé prendre le dessert ni le petit déjeuner. La piscine était très très sale. Les bords semblent ne jamais être nettoyés. C’est dommage car les chambres seraient jolies et le lieu aussi.

Gute Lage zum Hafen. Die Einrichtung ist aber sehr in die Jahre gekommen und beim Bett spürst du die Federn. Luft ist solala im Zimmer ist die Klimaanlage direkt über dem Bett, was zu nah ist und krank macht. Preis ist natürlich günstig, für 1 Nacht war es okay. Länger würden wir es nicht aushalten. Frühstück ist okay für den Preis.

Personal super, Preis-Leistung stimmt nicht

Check-in und Mitarbeiter super und freundlich. Alles sehr gut. Sehr bemüht und sehr hilfsbereit. Insgesamt sehr rustikal. Sehr angenehmer Flair. Die Anlage selber ist gepflegt und versprüht rustikalen Charme. Zimmer klein, Dusche hatte in den Ecken Schimmel. Kühlschrank war verklebt. Betten waren Liegen im Feldbett-Format und sehr unbequem. Wir hatten außerhalb auf der Terrasse einen kleinen Tisch und EINEN Stuhl für ein Zimmer für 4 Personen. Frühstücksbuffett ist Standard - nicht umfangreich aber ausreichend. Keine kulinarische Offenbarung ;-) Ich finde Preis-Leistung nicht angemessen. Für diesen Preis würde ich es nicht weiterempfehlen. Wir haben bereits mehrere Hotels auf unserer Rundreise gehabt, wo Lage sowie Preis-Leistung besser zusammenpassen. Der Fußweg nach Palau ist nicht durchgängig. Besonders am Kreisverkehr und an der Kreuzung gibt es unübersichtliche, gefährliche Ecken - dafür kann aber das Hotel nix. Es gibt nix in der Nähe, man muss Auto oder Fußweg einplanen.
