First of all I fully understand why this is one of the best hotels on the island as rated by trip advisor, it really does offer excellent value for money. The rooms are so spacious, parking is easy, the service is superb particularly for the elder gentleman who speaks fantastic English and cannot do enough for you. The breakfast is “COVID safe” you in effect stand away from the buffet and order what you would like and they serve it on the plate for you, the scrambled eggs are as high quality as you can wish for as is the salami and cheese. The bread rolls are very traditional for Italy they are not really to my wife and my preference (virtually hollow on the inside and a flour crust outside) but there is no disputing the freshness. The coffee is also excellent. In the rooms you can make your own nespresso, the tv has cnn news if you need the English language to help you sleep. The bathrooms is excellent the shower comfortable.
All that said I would have scored the hotel 3 (I.e Average) if was not for the service. The reason is three fold first the bed, the mattress was way to hard (we stayed in room 33 so might be different in other rooms), I much prefer a mattress with some give. 2nd is the location, I love walking and exploring but the area really is...First of all I fully understand why this is one of the best hotels on the island as rated by trip advisor, it really does offer excellent value for money.
