La Maddalena, a treasure of Sardinia 🥰
Pros:

What I liked the most was being upgraded to a room with a beautiful sea-view balcony. The hotel is right on the beach, and the restaurant has a stunning glass terrace overlooking the sea. Having breakfast there in the morning while watching the boats go by was just amazing. The hotel is also just a 10-minute walk from the historic center, and the walk was very pleasant, passing through the beautiful Maddalena port.

Cons:

The breakfast was basic

Hotel in posizione ottima, ma rovinato dal degrado della struttura e da una gestione poco curata
Pros:

La ottima posizione

Cons:

Purtroppo le foto su Booking non rispecchiano la realtà. Abbiamo prenotato una camera con vista mare, ma l'immagine mostrava un balcone che in realtà non c'era. La stanza era molto diversa da quella pubblicizzata: ambienti degradati, crepe evidenti sulle pareti, niente armadio, solo alcune mensole al posto dei comodini. La porta d'ingresso si riapriva da sola in più occasioni, creando disagio e insicurezza. Anche la vista mare, che sarebbe potuta essere un punto a favore, era rovinata dalla mancanza di manutenzione generale della struttura. Un'esperienza deludente rispetto alle aspettative create dalle foto.
