We loved this vj property. The room is very clean and comfortable. The European breakfast had fresh cut fruit and croissants. The owner is so sweet and great to talk with. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

Comodo al centro storico
Hotel in posizione molto comoda per visitare il centro storico di Otranto, La stanza al piano terra e' risultata ampia ma molto buia con affaccio su di un muro del cortile interno e luci fioche. La maniglia della finestra e' rotta e cosi' anche quella della porta che conduce nell'ingresso. Il bagno e' piccolo ed un po' trascurato(manca una lampadina). In compenso la ragazza che ci ha accolto e' stata molto gentile e simpatica, peccato che non ci fosse neanche una piantina del centro storico ne' nessun tipo di materiale informativo. La colazione sufficiente ma migliorabile. E' un 3 stelle sicuramente migliorabile con qualche attenzione in piu' ai dettagli.

Struttura discreta
La struttura è discreta, la titolare è stata disponibile e gentile, la camera pulita, l'unica pecca è stata la notte, a causa del minifrigo rumoroso e di un fastidiossisimo cane della palazzina difronte, che ha abbaiato tutta la notte. Non abbiamo chiuso occhio.

Trevligt hotell med hjälpsam personal. Även läget var bra. Tyvärr var sängen och kudden väldigt obekväm.

Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo
Consiglierei questo albergo a chiunque volesse soggiornare nella bellissima Otranto senza spendere troppo ma senza rinuciare a niente. A pochi passi dal centro, è in un'ottima posizione sia per visitare Otranto che per spostarsi nei luoghi vicini (come i Laghi Alimini). Personale cordiale e disponibile e stanze pulite dotate di tutto il necessario. Buona anche la colazione.

week end in salento
Un ottimo rapporto qualita' prezzo per chi non vuole per forza il lusso, posizione molto comoda con parcheggio stradale gratis ed una responsabile che potremmo definire wonderwoman. Un appoggio affidabilissimo per gustarsi questa perla del salento.
