I had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were lovely with a great view and a huge bathroom, although they might not be ideal for very young children. The service was exceptional, with some staff going above and beyond to accommodate us. The location was perfect for exploring the area, although the constant traffic on the nearby road was a bit of a downside. The dining experience was delightful, especially the morning spread. Overall, a fantastic experience with great value for money.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The beautiful views were overshadowed by the small, submarine-like rooms and the initial cigarette smell. The hotel's location was a great base for exploring nearby attractions, but there were some issues with the description accuracy. The dining options were limited, but the breakfast was one of the best I had during my vacation in Italy.

I felt like I was in a cozy boat or submarine with a room that was small but very clean, offering fresh towels daily and great amenities such as a big shower, fantastic TV, reliable Wifi, refreshing AC, and a comfy bed. The breathtaking view of the Gulf of Napoli added an extra touch to my stay. The rooms were large, modern, and attractive, providing all the necessary amenities, including the rare find of free in-room DSL internet after months of travel around Italy.
