Lovely place. Staff so helpful. The self check im is a breeze they send two codes to open gates an doors easy. Rooms will Seawiews are stunning. Breakfast really nice too. When the tram is running its easy to get to downtown at moment buses do the journey from nearby square, easy wak.Mainland Ferry terminal is very close by, cautioun though if you have a big luggage take a taxi the 60 steps up to the road are a good climb.

Late arrival and early departure so didn't get to meet the staff but they made sure we had all information necessary to check in upon arrival.

Very welcoming hosts and helpful in every way. It was very neat and clean everywhere. Nice breakfast and good parking in a closed area. There are many cars everywhere in Messina and parking on the streets which resulted in narrow roads around the hotel. Located close to the water and we had a view over the strait to the mainland. Highly recommended.

Inside the hotel, the property is clean, spacious and comfortable. The hosts are very attentive. The room was very comfortable. While there is a gated parking lot in the back, the street is on a steep hill, which requires a steep set of concrete stairs to get up and down to walk anywhere, including public transportation. It is very dirty and full of trash, which had obviously been there for weeks or months. Sidewalks are narrow and littered with dog poop in addition to litter. The building across the street is abandoned. We did not feel unsafe however, but it is a bit off-putting.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Difficult to write a review on this one. The manager was extremely pleasant and accommodating. The breakfast was excellent. The issues start with the room that we stayed in not looking anything like the photos in the listing. There are literally no dining options in the neighborhood. The property is extremely convenient to the ferry and really appreciated the parking but other than that it was pretty unimpressive. On the plus side the room was nicely decorated and the bathroom and shower were pretty reasonable. The floor in the sleeping area was very dirty. The room that we were given was right by the front door which makes a bunch of noise each time it's opened and closed.
