Disliked: Amenities
A great hotel with that has all the charm of the 1970's. The room comes with a kettle and cups, but no tea of coffee, which need to be purchased from the local supermarket. The air-conditioner was loud and worked when it wanted. The acoustics in the hotel room are unique, you know who is around at all times, especially when upstairs move furniture around at 4 in the morning. The pool is clean, but small and nobody wanted to venture in to it. Check-in can only be described as lackadaisical as confirming your full length of accommodation and facilities were non-existent. Breakfast was basic, sausages on day, bacon the other, no fried eggs only scrambled. The baked beans were good as were the coffee and orange juice. Found somewhere cheaper up the road with better facilities so the holiday ended up pretty good.

Nice hotel, good price and location

Breakfast pretty good, good selection. Fantastic location, walkable into town. Only criticism.....there were some noisy guests late at night, but this probably bothered me because my room was near the lobby. Overall, a very nice hotel at a very good price, would recommend.

The breakfast here was delicious and had a fantastic variety, I'd go back just for that! The beds were quite hard and the twin size was hard to adjust to, but it was clean! I'm just a big baby when it comes to firm beds. The bathroom was great and clean as well! I would recommend to people traveling in the area for an affordable option!

Away from downtown, quiet, very good service

15-20 minute walk from downtown isp,easy to enough along the seaside. Very good breakfast with variety and homemade baking. Relaxing common areas of the hotel (terrasse, breakfast room, pool, lobby). Room was fine, nothing exceptional but decent, though poor wifi for the room.) Staff was very service minded and accommodating. Bathroom just had basic amenities.

Not what it appeared to be

Looked great from outside but once inside very ordinary. Staff o.k. reception helpful with directions etc. The room was a lot smaller than I thought it would be and the facilities advertised in the room were not there. Tea and coffee was not replenished daily and the bed was uncomfortable. Breakfast was average and lukewarm. This place seemed to suit the English who are happy to stay in one place and not venture out for more than 5 minutes. I would not stay here again and I am sure there are better places around the area.

Another wonderful holiday at the Lato!

We have stayed in the Lato Hotel several times. It is simply the best value hotel I know. The staff are friendly and helpful, the bar prices are very reasonable and the pool well maintained. It is clean, quiet and is in a perfect location, with stunning views. The number of returning guests is testament to the hotel's well deserved popularity.
