This is supposedly a 4* hotel but I would rate it as 2* maximum. Our "prestige" apartment was very small. The two rooms together were no bigger than a normal 4* hotel room yet they had crammed in a bedroom, dining/sitting room and shower room. In the dining room there was a very hard bed, with another bed stored underneath. Had we wanted to use both these beds, the table and chairs would have had to be pushed hard against the kitchenette. There was nowhere comfortable to sit. In the bedroom, we could not sit up in bed because there was a shelf above the bed which rested neatly on the back of our necks if we tried to sit up. The web site said that it had an oven, but they meant to say a 2 burner hob. They provided a dish washer but no powder for it and it is not worth buying a large packet just for a few days use. Unlike other apartments of the same type that we stayed in in Italy, they did not clean the apartment at all for the four days we were there. Surely for a 4* property we could have expected at least a cleaner every other day. The shower room was so tiny that when sitting on the loo, my knees touched the shower cubicle (and I am only 5'2"). The two balconies were tiny and each just took two chairs. There was no room for a table, so none was supplied. The front of the balconies were made of concrete so when sitting we could not see over them. The hotel is sited between two main roads, so it is very noisy at all times. On the plus side, the foyer is very plush, the staff were very nice, there was secure parking, free internet access, and the use of a washing machine and tumble dryer. The web site said that there was satellite TV but I don't think it was. The other 7 places we stayed in Italy all had sat TV and we at least got one English speaking channel such as BBC World or CNN, but this only had Italian channels. The apartment was very depressing.

On paper the hotel seemed ideal for what we wanted. "A 4 star hotel on the beach front with a pool" however although the hotel were charging 4 star prices, the venue certainly did not reach our expectations. We arrived to find the pool was tiny and situated at the front of the hotel practically on the noisy main road (certainly not a place for holiday relaxation.) The staff appeard inofficient and not particularly friendly. The fact that they didn't speak any English didn't help either! The room was tiny and could just about fit a double bed in it! we could hardly get our suitcases in. Although the shower room (no bath) was modern and clean, there were no proper towling towles. We were expected to dry ourselves using cotton sheets, which was not the case in the other Italian hotels we stayed in. Perhaps if the hotel were cheaper and gave itself a more appropriate 3 stars, we would have felt differently. We would definately not go again. On a possitive note the breakfast and dining room were very nice and there was plenty to choose from.
