"A great place if you are looking at staying somewhere close to the airport for convenience reasons. But it smells a little weird in the entire place and you have to walk a couple of blocks to the only restaurant we could find. There might be others, but we got in late around 22:00 and there didn’t seem to be a lot open. The restaurant we found was great and the pizza was amazing!"

"The staff members at the front desk were very helpful and kind. They made certain that our request for a room in a quiet location was honored, and answered all of our questions regarding local sites using a map that we were able to take with us when sightseeing. We enjoyed delicious cocktails in the rooftop bar. The breakfast buffet offers a wide variety of foods and local specialties. The breakfast staff members were extremely friendly and hardworking! I was especially surprised to receive a delicious cannoli delivered to our breakfast table on the morning of my birthday! So thoughtful. We enjoyed a very comfortable stay at this hotel."

"The hotel was really nice, with a beautiful view. We also stayed in one of the renovated spaces and everything was top-notch. The hotel experienced a power outage one day after a storm, which was not in their control, but our room then had no electricity or running water. Just something to be aware of in the event of storms. We also tried the restaurants, but found that they were a bit overpriced for food that was not really very good. The wine was more expensive"
