Fantastic! We will be staying here again!
Pros:

Everything was lovely! Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful (despite our very poor Italian speaking). Rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated, had cute terraces, powerful (and quiet) airconditioning, a comprehensive welcome booklet, a fantastic shower and we felt very safe and secure

Cons:

That we had to leave at all

Csalódott
Pros:

A szállás tiszta és tágas volt. A hálószobában található ágy nagy méretű és kényelmes, a televízió pedig a szoba méretéhez képest megfelelően nagy volt. A szobához tartozott egy kisebb helyiség, egy kis konyha, egy fürdőszoba, valamint egy tágas terasz is.
A fürdőszoba tiszta volt, a takarítás és a törölközőcsere naponta megtörtént. A légkondicionáló és az internetkapcsolat megfelelően működött. Nagyjából ezek azok a pozitívumok, amelyeket a szállással kapcsolatban ki tudok emelni.

Cons:

Sajnos több csalódás is ért bennünket. Nem azt a szobát kaptuk, amely a foglaláskor közzétett képeken szerepelt. A konyha gyakorlatilag nincs felszerelve, így önellátásra nem alkalmas. A hűtőszekrényben található víz és üdítők csak külön díj ellenében fogyaszthatók, a tűzhely használatáért pedig 20 eurót kell fizetni.
A fürdőszobában a zuhanykabin rendkívül szűk és kényelmetlen volt. A törölközők durvák, elhasználódott érzetet keltettek. A terasz nem volt megfelelően tisztán tartva, és a személyzet jelentős része sem bizonyult különösebben barátságosnak.
Összességében a szállásnak vannak pozitív tulajdonságai, azonban az ár-érték arányt és a vendégélményt több olyan hiányosság is rontotta, amelyek miatt nem tudom maradéktalanul ajánlani.

Good modest hotel will stay again
Pros:

It is cool and the bed was comfortable.
A good location

Cons:

Our room had a kitchen but no cutlery or crockery. You have to pay extra for this and it won't be ready until mid morning the next day.
If you want it pay in advance so it's ready to use.

A good stay in Messina
Pros:

Walking distance from train, bus and ferry stations. We only stayed one night and arrived late to check in. Breakfast was good as well.

Cons:

Lift is very slow and small, but happy it has a lift.
