My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were basic but had comfortable beds, always-on aircon, and very clean power showers—just what I needed. However, the view was lacking as it only overlooked a courtyard. The service was top-notch with very attentive and friendly staff. The location was great, along the seafront and within a pleasant 20-minute walk to the center of Cefalu. The dining experience was decent, offering something for every taste, although some items seemed leftover or slightly stale. Overall, a comfortable and welcoming stay.
