6/10 Good

Nice, but run down
This is definitely not a 4* hotel, maybe it was once in it's heyday but not anymore. But first the positives, the hotel is in a beautiful location in Meta, towering cliffs surround it and the view across the bay to Sorrento is wonderful. The staff are polite and very friendly and the service was excellent. We only had breakfasts there but the selection was good, choices of cooked breakfasts, pastries, cereals etc. Tea and coffee is out of a machine but was fine, the fruit juice from a machine was disgusting though.
Now the negatives, the hotel itself is in desperate need of a complete renovation, it is so run down, the plaster on the walls outside is falling away, the floors are chipped, paintwork outside is rusting and the exterior furniture has seen better days. Our room was a twin with a balcony over looking the bay. The room was clean and the bedding was clean and crisp. The light wasn't great as half the bulbs didn't work, the toilet wasn't secured to the floor, someone had tried to use some sealant to secure it (only halfway round) but that hadn't worked. The bath had enamel worn away and again some poor sealant application all round it. Also the extractor fan didn't work. In the room there was a strange radio system fitted into the wall, but a, it didn't work and b, it was installed upside down.
Be warned, if you have a room facing the bay be prepared to be kept awake by, what in my opinion, was the worst hotel entertainment ever blaring out.
