Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was clean and comfortable for a one-night stay, with a pleasant old-style charm. However, the lack of air conditioning, especially in front-facing rooms, could be an issue. The service was mixed, with some unfriendly encounters at the beginning but ultimately helpful and charming. The stunning location offered breathtaking views ideal for walks, though dining options were overpriced and not the best value. The facilities were adequate but lacked key amenities.
The hotel offers beautiful views of the pool and mountains from rooms with balconies, but the initial room readiness delay and lukewarm room temperature were a downside. The staff could have been more attentive to guest needs, especially considering the wait. Air conditioning is a must-have feature that was lacking, making the room uncomfortably warm.
I was greeted with a slight delay in getting my room at 3 pm, but when I finally stepped in at 4:30 pm, the classic atmosphere and the stunning view of the little villages made up for it. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, despite a few hiccups.
Arriving at the hotel, I found the check-in process a bit delayed since my room wasn't ready until 4.30 pm despite the initial promise of 3 pm. Yet, once settled, I was captivated by the lovely views from my room's balcony. However, the pricing felt a bit steep considering the slight delay.
Arriving at the hotel, I was a bit disappointed as my room wasn't ready until 4.30 pm, even though promised by 3 pm. However, the view from the lovely little terrace made up for it. The staff didn't seem too concerned about the delay, which was a letdown.
