First and foremost, a huge thank you to Maria-Louisa, Mirianna, Roberto, and all other staff we connected with for such a pleasant stay! Your hospitality and such positive attitude was everything we needed to make this one of our bests stays. The hotel rooms and common spaces are clean and functional. The breakfast had many options and the hotel location is prime being very close to the ferries, taxi stand, restaurants, and even the bike rental shop. You can’t go wrong for booking here
