Reviews and Ratings
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was superb, right in the very center and within walking distance to all the local bars. The rooms were spacious and modern, with particularly comfortable beds and a good strong shower. The service was exceptional, with attentive housekeeping and the option for paid airport shuttle. The dining experience offered delicious Tuscan cheese, although I noticed no cereal options. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay truly enjoyable. The only downside was the slightly higher price for the value provided.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The room was comfortable, and the shower was really powerful.

The dining experience was good overall, but I did notice the absence of cereal on the menu. The facilities were modern and well-maintained, offering great value for the price paid.
The hotel is centrally located, just steps away from all the local bars and within the heart of the village. The hotel provides paid airport shuttle service which could be more attractive if included in the room rate. Overall, a convenient place to stay with friendly service.
