Mit Ausnahme vom Ort ist ansonsten die Unterkunft nicht zu empfehlen....
Pros:

Nur die Lage wo sich die Villa befindet ist schön.

Cons:

Auf dem Bett kann man nicht schlafen, weil es ersetzt werden muss. U-formige Matratze. Absolut ein No go....wir haben dann das Zimmer Nr. 5 erhalten, wo das Bett zufriedenstellend war, aber wir nach einem Zimmerwechsel gefragt hatten. Dieses Zimmer war einiges kleiner, alles ist fast beschädigt und einen Preisnachlass wurde nicht gewährt. Es ist auch einiges kleiner als das ursprüngliche Zimmer Nr. 4, welches wir gebucht hatten. Wenn auf Booking mit Fabelhaft bewertet wird ist das eine Lüge....

Great potential but in need of TLC.
Pros:

Location is the only reason my score is not lower. Plus the added benefit of reserved lounges on a breathtaking beach- though limited number. Staff was very accommodating, knowledgeable about the area and friendly.

Cons:

The room 101 we had was in serious need of renovation and upgrades. I can't speak for the other rooms. Semi-repaired ceiling, stained couch and worst of all the bathroom which was infested with ants and in need of fresh caulking and renovation. We informed them of the issue and they seemed surprised ... highly doubt we were the first. Too bad because the location really has potential. Breakfast was the same every day - ok for 1 or 2 nights but not for a week.

A very nice stay
Pros:

Gostei muito do Club (Lido privado) na praia privada no Mondello. Gostei da segurança e da excelente localização. Gostei da amabilidade da Gestora Carla Mondello.

Cons:

Genericamente gostei de tudo apenas recomendo a utilização de ingredientes típicos italianos ao pequeno almoço.

Gut
Pros:

Die Lage war super. Kommunikation per Whatsapp hat auch gut funktioniert. Der Strandabschnitt war auch super. Das Zimmer war schön eingerichtet und die Damen beim Frühstück waren sehr nett. Strandtuch wurde zur Verfügung gestellt. Es war sauber.

Cons:

Ein richtiger Schrank wäre schön gewesen, um die Sachen richtig zu verstauen.
Es war sehr laut im Zimmer, man hat die Strasse und Personen im Gang sehr gut gehört.
Die Klimaanlage hat nicht richtig funktioniert, es wurde nie kälter als 24 Grad im Zimmer.
