The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was nice and clean with a nice shower in the bathroom. However, the parking area was tight and difficult to back out when filled. I would recommend to the owners to put more hooks in the rooms for coats, towels etc. Also, have more than one small rubbish bin.

The carpets were dirty. Someone tried to open the door to our room twice late in the night. That was really disturbing. Sorry, we probably won’t stay here again.

This was an OK place to stay. However, they used a photo that is not the accommodations, featuring a lovely Italian style villa. If you have never been there and assume a place cannot put fake photos on the Hotels.com website..... you would be mistaken here. This place look nothing like the photo.
