We had a wonderful stay. The room was super clean and the person who greeted us was wonderful, no complaints at all. It just so happens that the sea right across from it has a sewage line and walking towards it from under the bridge was a nasal nightmare. With a car you are absolutely okay to stay here because you can drive to a cleaner swimming spot.

The room and especially the bathroom were very outdated. The TV wasn’t working. Third floor with no elevator. Breakfast starts at 8AM. I had to catch a ferry to the Aeolian islands at 7AM so I couldn’t take advantage of it the first day. Also no coffee machine or refrigerator in the room. Only one vending machine in the building with no coffee. Despite everything, the view of Stromboli from my room was priceless!

3rd floor. No elevator. A/c was old . Cover was hanging off. Shower was small. Had a plastic mat , that was dirty. Had a hard tv with the tv. Receptionist said she was going to fix a/c & tv never did. Also asked to change room to lower floor. Her response was no, because we booked an economy room with Expedia. And we couldn’t lock door. We checked out a day earlier. 6 flights of stairs.

O hotel era próximo do centro e da estação de Santa Domenica, que nos leva rapidamente a Tropea. Foram muito prestáveis ao ponto de nos fazerem umas sandes para levarmos para a viagem, uma vez que o pequeno almoço é a partir das 8h e a senhora que prepara o pequeno almoço, nos atendeu ainda não eram 7h e sempre com simpatia.

El hotel está bien ubicado al estar 10 minutos andando desde la estación de trenes. El personal super amable, nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos y siempre dispuestos a ayudar y aconsejar. El desayuno bufé es muy completo y se puede disfrutar en una bonita terraza. Evidentemente no es un hotel 5 estrellas, pero a nosotros nos gustó mucho y pudimos disfrutar de nuestras vacaciones en paz.
