8.8/10 Excellent! (52 reviews)
Great location right off the main drag through town and only 2 blocks walk to the beach. The staff was super friendly, from check-in to answering all questions and assisting with calling a taxi. There are many activities near by. The room was very clean, the bed was fairly comfortable. Breakfast was included and was buffet style, full American and European breakfast. It was the best I had in Italy. The rooftop pool and spa was a big bonus. Overall a great hotel for the price.
