Pros:

La ubicación es increíblemente espectacular sobre la línea de la plaza. Tuve la suerte de poder hacer un Upgrade y me tocó una habitación hermosa con una terraza con Reposeras, mesa para desayunar, y una gran vista a lo mejor de Positano . Volvería una y 1000 veces.

Pros:

The room was much bigger and more comfortable than we expected and with a sea view. Mrs. Rosa very helpful, always with a smile. The hotel is located on the beach with easy access to the port. I highly recommend it.

Enjoyed our stay, felt well taken care of and safe. Lots of great restaurant choices and easy to get in and out of each
Pros:

The location was amazing. Wake up to a beautiful view with your own private area to enjoy people watching and to appreciate the sound of the ocean.
The property was a taste of true Italian culture and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The air conditioning was amazing considering the heat.

Cons:

The mattress was very hard and the bed was in need of updated linens and pillows. If these things were not an issue it would be the perfect place. These things would probably not keep me from staying again but the back ache for me and my 22 year old daughter was real. The room and bathroom was so clean.

Estancia regular no volvería aquí ni tampoco lo recomiendo
Pros:

La ubicación y la cama cómoda

Cons:

Yo elegí y pagué una habitación que cuando llegué no me asignaron, me dieron otra que era más pequeña. El baño olía muy mal a pis siempre, un día sí y otro no nos duchamos con poca presión y con agua fría porque no salía caliente. Un baño muy viejo que no limpiaban y cuando llegábamos lo único que habían cambiado eran las toallas. Yo veo este alojamiento más como y una pensión más que un hotel. Es un sitio muy viejo.

We enjoyed our stay very much ! Especially night life
Pros:

The location of the property was excellent.
Its clean and right on the beach .
To rent a beach bed they were asking for 60 euro per one.
The good thing that the hotel has its own beach beds which they ofer for free but its not on the beach. Its at the entrance of the hotel . Overall we enjoyed the vibe.

Cons:

The manager is a grumpy lady that doesn’t speak english at all and is very not friendly.. To get to her we had to climb about 20 stairs with our luggage.
We came all the way from LA to find out that the place was over booked so they sent us to a hotel nearby which we had to climb up about 15 minutes in this heat wave. ( the reservation was made ahead of time and fully paid for)

Pros:

Ser em frente à praia, o facto de termos espreguiçadeiras privadas para o pessoal do hotel também foi incrível. A vista da varanda era surreal. Os funcionários eram impecáveis.

Cons:

A água quente demorava uma eternidade a chegar e ainda tinha pouca pressão. Às vezes, quando a água quente chegava, passado dois minutos voltava a ficar fria. Para um quarto daquele preço, água quente é o mínimo. Também não têm ferro de engomar disponível.

Amazing service and amazing location
Pros:

Last minute booking for 6 people. I booked two non-sea view rooms and they gave us rooms overlooking the sea! Clean, cold and with small kitchenette area with kettles for coffee and tea. So convenient to the ferry

Cons:

The expectations that this is a five star European resort must be quashed. This is a wonderfully clean, fairly affordable beachfront property in Positano. I loved the staff and the location. And the price!

Extrêmement cher, pour ce logement
Cons:

Dans l’annonce, il est stipulé vu sur la montagne et en fait la Roche se trouve à 1,50 m de la fenêtre, la chambre se trouvant limite dans l’obscurité. deuxième point la plage privative se trouve de l’autre côté de la rue, il s’agit simplement de l’avancée du bâtiment où se trouve les logements sur lequel ils ont mis du sable,
Il faut traverser la rue pour pouvoir accéder à une plage payante qui permettent d’accéder à la mer
