Stella Rooms

The host was brilliant, and the rooms were lovely and very clean. Most places are within walking distance. I’d absolutely recommend it, 10 stars if I could.

Best hostess, and the room was clean.

The cleaning lady ended up explaining the keys and handing over the room, which says a lot about how this place is managed. We weren’t given check-in instructions and had to ask; we were told to call when we arrived, two hours late, so someone could open the door. In fact, we rang the bell and the cleaner let us in and kindly explained everything. Before that, we had no check-in information from the owner. I messaged on the morning we were due to arrive and got no answer, so I had to call a few hours before check-in. During the call, the owner said the previous guests had stayed longer than expected, and our room would be ready two hours after the stated check-in time. We were left waiting around. The manager then asked us to meet outside before we even got the room. He stayed in his car and asked for 10 euros in tourist tax. We pointed out that the website listed 7 euros total, €3.50 per person, and that I’m a resident and shouldn’t have to pay. He just said, “Come on, let’s make it 10 euros,” as if we were haggling at a market. We paid out of embarrassment just to settle it, and he never got out of the car. Trying to get an extra €2.50 from us cost the manager a customer and earned this negative review. Good for him. I strongly advise against this property.

The room setup was baffling. We’d booked two rooms, one for three people, but they put the cot in the smaller room, leaving us with no room to move. In January, with the cold, there was only a summer quilt on the bed. As soon as we booked, the owner started pestering us with voice messages. On arrival, he gave us a look I can’t describe. The middle sheet had a black stain, there was dust everywhere and hair on the floor. The toilet drain was broken and made an unbearable noise, the shower tray was black, there was no shower gel, and the hand soap dispenser was empty. There were plenty of other things too, but I’ll finish writing tomorrow. No comment, forget it. It’s absurd. Read the reviews before booking.
