I had a decent stay at the hotel, with clean and modern rooms that had efficient air conditioning. The service was top-notch, especially from Giuseppi, who was attentive to our needs. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with limited breakfast quality. The location was a bit out of the way but still convenient with a car. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, though not without its issues.

Rooms

The rooms were generous, modern, and clean, offering comfortable air conditioning. However, the balcony design felt odd with fake grass turf and a high cement wall that obstructed the view when sitting down.

The hotel isn't in the most desirable spot; it's rather out of the way. It’s best if you have a car for access to the city center, which is a 5-10 minute drive away.

Dining was one area that could be improved. The breakfast had some disappointing elements, like dirty tomatoes and dry low-quality croissants, which were supplemented slowly.
