The location was very convenient next to the port! I appreciated the easy access to boat tours. The breakfast service was plentiful.
The room was quite small. There was NO refrigerator for storing water, inconvenient in the summer heat. THE air conditioning unit was also quite noisy.

Fantastic Location near the Marina

excellent location helpful staff
The hotel is in an excellent location very close to the ferry (ideal for island hopping!). The facility is modern and clean, and the staff is friendly (Alina and Sasha at reception were especially helpful).
I would have appreciated some information about the elevation change between the hotel and the main town (it's quite a climb!). It would be helpful to have clearer directions on the best way to access the hotel.
Rooms

Our room was comfortable and clean. The bathroom was well-kept. I found the room to be spacious enough for our needs and it had all necessary amenities.
Location
10/10
The hotel's proximity to the port is a major advantage (especially for those planning boat trips to Capri or the Amalfi Coast). There are also many restaurants nearby. I liked that it was a little away from the main town, as it ensured a quiet night's sleep.
