A little maintenance and the property would be amazing.
Pros:

The location was amazing and the atmosphere was very relaxing.

The property was not looked after and run down. Little hot water and low water pressure for the shower. WiFi very poor.

Pros:

Magnifiquement situé sur une falaise.
Belle piscine et l accès à la mer très beau
Le restaurant est bon et le personnel très sympa.

Cons:

Ma chambre était un peu enterrée et mon lit un peu défoncé.
Je trouve que cela ne valait pas le prix.

Ottima terribile starci se non sei un atleta
Pros:

La posizione meravigliosa

Cons:

La struttura non è dotata di ascensore o ausili per persone con difficoltà motorie
Ci sono più di 100 gradini per arrivare alla reception e più di 120 per la ristorazione e questo non era riportato nella descrizione dell’hotel

Pros:

La dame de l'accueil au premier jour était très agréable et nous a bien renseigné.
On a adoré la proximité avec la mer, de pourvoir nager vers une petite grotte (aller le matin si les conditions sont bonnes, être bon nageur) c'est magnifique.
L'hôtel est très joli, son emplacement est idéal.
Il faut juste que les gens prennent en compte que la région et le lieux ne sont pas adapté aux personnes avec des soucis de mobilité 😉 pour les autres les nombreux escaliers font un bon réveil matinale et soutient une activité physique saine.
La piscine est un atout majeur pour profiter de se rafraîchir quand la mer est trop agitée.
Le petit déjeuner était vraiment top, un joli choix., Nous avons eu la chance d'être servis par une très gentille dame.

Cons:

Comme discuté avec une très agréable dame, les joints de la salle de bains mérite un rafraîchissement. La chambre elle, a un look un peu vieillot mais cela ne nous a pas déranger car on est pas venu avec des trop gros attentes de ce côté là.On voulais juste profiter de la mer et se détendre.

Peccato , con una organizzazione più professionale sarebbe un 10
Pros:

La struttura spettacolare , posizione fantastica e il personale molto disponibile e gentile .

Cons:

I servizi , il cibo , l’organizzazione della cucina in particolare la qualità dei prodotti
. Evidentemente i proprietari non hanno l’esperienza sufficiente per gestire un hotel , dovrebbero affidarsi a dei professionisti del settore . Peccato
