Appartamenti San Carlo

There’s plenty nearby, including shops, a gas station, and a supermarket, and the pool is large with enough loungers for everyone. It’s a good budget option. The rooms are okay, with an old-fashioned Italian look, and there’s no fan or air conditioning, though the kitchen is fully equipped. There’s no desk at the hotel, but when you call, they’re friendly and relaxed. You may hear noise from neighboring apartments.

The welcome was nice, and they’d left wine in the fridge and fresh nectarines in the clean room. The pool area is decent, too. The apartment itself is small, with two single beds, a very basic kitchen area, and thin walls, although it was quiet in the evening. There’s no air conditioning, Wi-Fi, or mosquito screens on the windows. For what you get, I’d either pay less for a one-night stop at a hostel or spend a bit more on a reasonably good hotel or Airbnb. This place lands awkwardly between those options.

There’s a supermarket about a five-minute walk away, and the view is really nice. The pool’s good, and the restaurant right in front of the apartment serves delicious food. The place has an old Italian feel, but there’s no air conditioning or fan.

The view was wonderful, but the apartment got very hot without air conditioning. There’s no elevator, and climbing three floors wasn’t easy.
