Pros:

Posizione ottimale per raggiungere le spiagge sia a piedi che in bus..La zona è centrale e ricca di locali e negozi, cari, ma è anche ricca di luoghi storici con strade e palazzi antichi da vedere assolutamente.
Albergo modesto ma dignitoso, affascinante nel suo essere Antico. Camera accogliente e spaziosa.

Cons:

Mi avrebbe fatto piacere avere dei fili per stendere ad asciugare i costumi e gli asciugamani..
Forse l'albergo, pur mantenendo il suo carattere antico, avrebbe bisogno di una rinfrescata..

Modest ,clean,and comfortable in the best location.
Pros:

On the main square in town.Quiet at night.
Perfect location to savor exquisite ,charming,authentic Portoferraio. This island,specifically this town, is Portofino,Capri,Positano -of 40 years ago. Evenings the yacht- lined harbor promenade comes alive with lively cafes,restaurants and shops. Live soft music on weekends at some outdoor restaurants.
The seawater is of a quality that equals and even exceeds Mallorca's at many of the beaches,depending on wind direction.
The hotel is clearly a budget hotel but perfectly adequate to explore the island.Bus stop is a 2- minute walk away.Taxis stands are 10 minutes away on foot. I took a taxi to a different beach each of my many days on the island .The best swimming was at the beaches which are a 10 -minute walk from the hotel. Many restaurants near the hotel.
Very kind and pleasant hotel staff. Strong wifi signal.Plentiful hot water.Strong aircon.Room shutters block out the morning light.

Cons:

Church bells sound at 8 each morning-but not a problem for early risers.

Pros:

Stuttura in una buona posizione centrale con parchieggo affianco e tutti ristoranti, negozi vicini. Nostra camera molto pulita e lenzuoli confortevole. Facciata storica si ricorda gli anni 50.

Cons:

Sicuramente va fatto piu' lavori di manutenzioni sulle porte delle camere, zone di passaggio e qualche cosa rotto nel bagno.
