Pros:

Mah da fuori è anche bello, però il resto non proprio. Ha una buona vista

Cons:

La tavoletta del water si è staccata, arredo anni 60 mai rinnovato, stanza non ben pulita,
Oggettivamente per 179euro a notte è un albergo con rapporto qualità prezzo scarso

A destination in itself.
Pros:

Authentically beautiful. Time stands still here. The Ligurian air is invigorating. The natural vegetation and flowers love it here.

Cons:

It has been here for two hundred years? More? Drop your phone and open your senses.

Nelle aspettative. Personale gentile e disponibile. Un sorriso aiuta sempre. Bene
Pros:

La struttura ha molto potenziale.
Colazione nella norma
Non utilizzando l'auto per muovermi, il parcheggio è stato fondamentale.

Cons:

Il solarium sarebbe da migliorare in quanto ha del potenziale. Una piccola vasca idromassaggio non sarebbe male.
Il Wifi nel solarium non arriva ed è un peccato perché potrebbe essere utilizzato per lavorare.
In camera non c'è un tavolino per appoggiare e lavorare con il pc.

Character property. Good sized rooms. Nice breakfast. Fabulous location in a beautiful town.
Pros:

Gorgeous character building on the hillside. Breakfast was good, nice coffee. Staff were lovely. A small fridge in the room was handy. Easy walk down to town and only 6km walk to Portofino. Lots of great restaurants and shops nearby.
Parking available onsite for €15 a day. Didn’t move car once, walked everywhere.

Cons:

Walls were quite thin and some young guests were next door. They came in at 4am and made a terrible noise until 5am.
Not the hotels fault, but super annoying.
