I would not recommend this hotel.
Pros:

For such an expensive hotel, the rooms were simply standard. The bar was nothing special. Frankly disappointing.

Cons:

A wedding took place our second night which meant that we had no access to the bar, even before the wedding began. No other facilities are within easy walking distance.

Struttura migliorsbile
Pros:

La piscina è piaciuta

Cons:

Struttura molto trascurata con molte manutenzioni da fare. Sono convinta che trent’anni fa sia stato un ottimo hotel ed è rimasto tutto come allora.

Pros:

The pool and leisure facilities were great, and it was good value. Staff were very helpful.

Cons:

The first room I was offered didn't have a desk or table in it, making it impossible to work with my laptop. I had to ask for another room, but was offered a much better one.

It has become an outdated hotel and definitely needs modern upgrades
Pros:

Breakfast buffet was good, pool facilities were reasonable, nice snacks in the room, nice bathrobes

Cons:

Wifi was almost nonexistent and very slow (impossible to work), hot water was just tepid in the shiver-shower, noise from the fire door outside the room banging shut, Curtains did not block out the bright lights outside

Avoid if you can
Pros:

The Manager was awful

Rest of the stuff were exceptional

Cons:

We booked a deluxe room and got a sub standard room.
There was no hot water in the evenings and apparently it is the norm.
