    I recently had a fantastic stay in a charming hotel located in the heart of a vibrant city. This hotel surpassed my expectations in many ways. the central location was unbeatable - just a short stroll away from the main attractions and with easy access to car parks. Secondly, the attention to detail was outstanding, with clean and comfortable rooms equipped with air conditioning and all the basic amenities needed for a pleasant stay. Lastly, the staff were extremely helpful and went above and beyond to ensure that I had a great time. The breakfast spread, reminiscent of a classic Italian feast, was a delight, and the friendly host provided valuable recommendations for local restaurants and attractions.

    There was not a single thing that I could fault during my stay.

    Andrea, the owner, was absolutely awesome! He went above and beyond to accommodate our breakfast requests and gave us fantastic tips on what to do and see. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the city and within easy walking distance to all the attractions. Our room was exactly as pictured, spacious and comfortable with a lovely balcony overlooking the courtyard. It was spotlessly cleaned every morning, which is a rare find. The bed was super comfy and the furniture was nice. The surrounding area had an incredible morning market where we could buy fresh Sicilian products. We also loved that the B&B was on the top floor, offering a quiet and stunning view of the city from our balcony. The guest host was extremely helpful and kind. We highly recommend this place and can't wait to come back!

    The location is absolutely fantastic right in the middle of everything, with lots of restaurants and shops nearby and just a short walk to the main square.

    There was a lingering smell in the room that we found unbearable, and despite mentioning this to the staff, they were not able to do anything about it.

    Great air conditioning and comfortable beds were the only redeeming qualities of this hotel. the location was central, making it easy to explore the city on foot.

    My New Year's experience was ruined by the outdated and dirty room, which included stains on the towels and walls. the worst part was the non-existent breakfast.

    The hotel's location in the very heart of the city is truly unbeatable. With all the interesting sights just a stone's throw away, it's the perfect base for exploring the vibrant surroundings. Additionally, the friendly and helpful staff, especially Andrea, ensured a smooth check-in and made our stay even more enjoyable. The rooms were clean, modern, and equipped with everything we needed, including air conditioning to keep us cool in the summer heat. We were pleasantly surprised to find a well-stocked kitchen with a variety of breakfast options available throughout the day, making our mornings hassle-free. On top of all this, the hotel offered great value for money, exceeding our expectations in terms of prices and attention to detail.

    No major complaints here, everything was just fine.
