Excellent value, great location, room with a view
Pros:

Room 8 was tastefully furnished. A true “room with a view,” it overlooked the sea below, with the imposing castle above and a star-filled sky at night.

Dinner in the restaurant was delicious, even if the desserts were not made in-house. Breakfast was only "ok". Other than eggs, only sweet fare and fruit was offered. Something vegetably and savory would have made the buffet perfect.

The location was convenient, at least by car, and easy to reach. Plenty of onsight parking available.

Service at both reception and in the restaurant (for both dinner and breakfast) were excellent. The restaurant's wait staff was truly exceptional.

The hotel and restaurant were among the few still operating in the off-season, even as they prepared to close for the winter. Lucky us, having gotten to still experience this place.

The ping-pong table in the common area was an unusual and fun touch, although the deflated balls needed serious replacing.

The ping-pong balls were a minor disappointment, unlike the size of the beds.

Definitively worth returning to; great value-for-money!

If I return to the island, I would definitely consider staying here again but highly hope that the hotel would consider replacing the beds. Room 8 was certainly large enough to accommodate larger beds.

Cons:

My only real reservation was the size of the beds. They felt far too small for adult comfort. While this traditional single size remains common in Italy, I would expect more generous beds in a hotel of this quality.

Ottima colazione e posizione
Pros:

Lo staff è molto disponibile. La colazione è molto buona: molto varia sui dolci mentre la scelta sul salato è più limitata.
Estremante comodo ed ampio il posteggio privato dell'hotel. Posizione eccellente per visitare tutte le spiagge dell'isola (se si ha un veicolo).
Molto comodo il balconcino esterno.

Cons:

L'assenza delle zanzariere è purtroppo un problema che ti obbliga a non aprire le finestre la sera ed usare l'aria condizionata per rinfrescare. L'hotel è un po' datato; il balconcino della nostra camera necessita di un po' di manutenzione aggiuntiva.

Pros:

Struttura bella, Personale gentilissimo con possibilità di transfer tutti i giorni nelle varie parti dell’isola gratuitamente. Possibilità di noleggiare scooter elettrico molto comodo. All’ultimo piano si può uscire sul tetto dell’hotel, da cui si può osservare un cielo stupendo di notte.
