Unfreundlich, ungenügendes Frühstück und schlechter Kaffee
Pros:

Liegt in Gehdistanz zum Stadtzentrum. Tolle Sicht aufs Meer.

Cons:

Kaffee ist schlecht und Frühstück dürftig, nach 9 Uhr war das eh schon knappe Buffet zur Hälfte leer. Beim Personal hatte man das Gefühl, dass man eher zur Last fallen würde. Das Zimmer war knapp ausgestattet und bei Mistral / Wind sehr laut.

Une escale réussie à l’île de Maddalena à l’hôtel Il Gabbiano
Pros:

L’emplacement, pas trop loin du centre, on peut y aller à pied. C’est face mer avec le désavantage de bruit lors des coups de vent.
Le personnel sympa, le petit déjeuner bien et le restaurant pizzeria à côté très bien. La literie bien . Un bon rapport qualité prix

Cons:

La salle de bain assez ancienne et la douche trop petite. Il faut longtemps pour avoir de l’eau chaude et le débit faible

Très beau cadre pour un prix très intéressant
Pros:

La situation et le cadre sont magnifiques. La vue depuis le restaurant est incroyable. C’est chouette que chaque chambre ait un balcon avec une vue sur la mer. Excellent accueil à la réception!

Cons:

Une bouilloire pourrait être un plus.

Aussicht gut, Komfort eher nicht
Pros:

Die Aussicht. Das Restaurant war renoviert.

Très bien pour la vue et emplacement, le reste est limité
Pros:

Très proche du centre ville et vue exceptionnelle.

Cons:

Beaucoup de bruits, les cloisons sont très fines si bien qu'on entendait les personnes de la chambre d'à côté prendre leur douche à minuit !
Idem le matin, avec les femmes de ménages qui discutaient dans le couloir.
Petit déjeuner limité, cependant vue exceptionnelle sur la mer.
