The hotel is conveniently located close to the city center and within walking distance of downtown. The rooms are comfortable overall, especially those with private bathrooms. The service is quite attentive and having the option of a paid airport shuttle adds value. However, the dining experience lacks variety in typical Sicilian products, and the facilities could use some improvement. The price seems fair for the services provided.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were basic, but they had a kitchenette, which was convenient. The shared bathroom was clean and well-maintained. The location was excellent, very close to the city center and within walking distance of many attractions. The dining options were limited, and the hotel lacked a warm breakfast service. The service was decent, and the staff was helpful. Overall, it was a good value for money.

The hotel is a gem! Great location near the city center with lovely dining options. The rooms are clean and comfy, and the service, top-notch. However, the lack of sufficient parking space can be a hassle. The surrounding beach views make up for it though.

The hotel offers a cozy stay with comfortable rooms and an adequately equipped kitchen. The shared bathroom could use some improvement, but the 2 bedrooms layout offers added space. Despite the private bathroom being a highlight, the value for money could be better.
