Pros:

Great garden, beautiful view, helpful staff, nice terrace, good breakfast. If you're sure you're ready for Positano it's a great place to stay

Cons:

Stairs, so many stairs, everywhere - I'm not talking about the hotel itself, but about the way to get to the hotel. Doesn't matter if you use the bus/ferry/car you still need to climb and later go down hundreds of stairs.
Also - The shower's drain was clogged

Schöne Unterkunft für ein paar Tage mit tollen Ausblick mit kleinen Abzügen.
Pros:

Schöne Lage am zweiten Strand von Positano. Sehr nettes Personal, toller Ausblick mit Garten und wunderschöne Terrasse.

Cons:

Das Bad hätte etwas sauberer sein können. Die Armaturen waren voller Kalkflecken und das Wasser leider nur lauwarm.

A magical place!!
Pros:

Incredible! We walked around the entire city, and this hotel had by far the best view. I was in awe every time I looked out our door windows. I will absolutely stay here some day. Super kind staff, accommodating and helpful! Wonderful breakfast included in the morning. This place was magical, I already miss it. I can’t recommend it enough. We lived this haven on our Italy trip.

Fantastico giardino con vista
Pros:

I ragazzi presenti al check-in ci sono venuti incontro per aiutarci con le valigie e si sono proposti di farlo anche al check-out senza alcun costo aggiuntivo. Davvero gentili. Se avessi saputo prima che il posto era cosi bello avrei valutato di fare una notte aggiuntiva.

Cons:

Piccolezze rispetto al complesso del soggiorno.
