I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is perfect for anyone wanting to explore the Eolian Islands, just a short walk from the ferry terminal. The staff really made my stay special, being friendly and helpful throughout. However, my room got uncomfortably hot at night, and while the dining was decent, I wish there had been more variety for breakfast.

The hotel has a great location for those looking to explore the Eolie Islands, with easy access to the ferry terminal. While the rooms were clean, they became quite hot at night, and I had to ask for the air conditioning late in the evening. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay much more enjoyable. However, the dining options could use a bit more variety, although the quality was acceptable.

The hotel has some great things going for it, like the friendly and helpful staff, especially Francesco, who really made my stay special with his local knowledge. The location is super convenient, just a short walk to the ferry terminal for the Aeolian islands. However, the service was hit or miss, with a few bad experiences, and the rooms could use some improvement, as they felt a bit stuffy at times.

I had a pleasant stay overall at this hotel. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the ferry terminal, making it perfect for visiting the Eolie Islands. The rooms were clean and spacious, but the views could have been better, especially facing the streets. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made a big difference. However, I found the dining options were somewhat lacking in variety and freshness. The amenities could use some improvement as well.
