Centrally located is this wonderful B&B run by Martina with a delightful team of staff. The location is ideal for walking around the entire island, with abundant choice of restaurants within minutes. The dining room overlooks the street which makes adds to the vibrancy. The room was comfortable and a spacious bathroom with all amenities including a lovely waterfall shower. Breakfast was a highlight and one of the main reasons I would book this place again - fresh selection of bakery products, cooked eggs options, homemade antipasti. Really useful tips for roaming the island from Martina and Steph with good connections with locals e.g. boat trip, shows. I really thoroughly recommend this B&B.

The staff were so friendly and welcoming and the rooms really comfortable and so clean. The whole place was warm ,which was a benefit as the weather outside was distinctly wet and cold.( It was March) The breakfast was all you could wish for and the communal table was an opportunity to meet and talk to people from all over the world. Highly recommended.
