We stayed one night and are the only people staying so we are able to spread out. Very quiet and peaceful and the view from the roof terrace is great. Breakfast is amazing! So much selections and the lady serving the breakfast is very friendly (we had to communicate using Google translate).

This is a lovely place. Very quaint, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good and staff pleasant. Good location. Would recommend the hotel. However if you have a rental car like we did beware. Their parking system is poor and inefficient. Salvatore meets you and tries to explain parking system is easy. Not true. They take your keys and park your car for 20 euros a day. If you need your car they don't answer their phone or texts. You'll wait 30 minutes to an hour to get your car then when you check out the driver wants exact cash. No card or change.

A 2 bedroom apartment (clean, has good A/C, nice balcony, big refrigerator) on 2nd floor. No help with luggage. No WiFi. Breakfast is very simple but good. Be prepared to walk up a few stairs to get to apartment and breakfast area (separate from apartment). Parking by service (Euros 20/day). Easy & friendly check in/out.
