Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall! The rooms were fairly basic but very clean and had all the amenities I needed, offering good value for the price. The service was top-notch, with the staff being professional and incredibly friendly. The location was convenient for visiting nearby attractions, but could be a challenge without a car. The dining experience provided a good selection of dishes in a lovely rooftop terrace setting. Overall, a decent choice for a stay with some minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though spacious and comfortable, lacked proper air circulation and had hard mattresses and pillows, making it challenging to get a good night's sleep. On the bright side, the free Wi-Fi connection was convenient. The service received a high rating as the staff was incredibly polite and helpful. However, there was a mix-up regarding lunch availability in the dining room. The hotel's location was ideal for travelers with a car exploring Puglia but not suitable for those without transportation, as it's far from the city and lacks public transport options. The dining experience was satisfactory with an expected quality of items offered. While the facilities were generally good, there were some minor issues. Prices were reasonable, offering decent value for money.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, though not extravagant, were clean, spacious, and equipped with all the necessary amenities for a short stay. They were also well soundproofed from outside noise, allowing for a good night's sleep. However, the decor seemed a bit dated. The service was top-notch, with extremely gracious and friendly staff who went out of their way to help us with our GPS issue. The location, just outside Bari off the SS16, suited us well for exploring the area, although it was on the side of a busy motorway. The dining experience was exceptional, offering a diverse and delicious buffet that included everything from eggs to homemade cakes. The facilities were adequate, catering to our needs during our stay.
