Albergo Italia

Lovely spot for dinner, with a great view in the afternoon ;)

For around €70-75, we booked a double room with a balcony and sea view through booking.com, without meals, so the value felt fair. The owner was friendly and helpful. The beachfront hotel is quite dated and would benefit from some maintenance.

The heat made this vacation unbearable. Even the machine I rely on to sleep would shut down. There was no hair dryer, the bathroom door wouldn't close, and all the smells came into the room. There wasn't even a mini fridge. It was hell, never again! Maybe this place could work as a retirement home for elderly people... maybe. We loaded up on carbs at lunch and left two days earlier than planned. Please! There were signs from the moment I arrived: a welcome notice at the hotel entrance saying “whole business for sale” 😂😂

The location is stunning, right by the beach and on a street with bars, restaurants and plenty of places to live. For the price, getting breakfast included in high season at a hotel 50 meters from the sea is hard to beat. I'd give value for money six stars. This is our second year here, and my mother and I are staying for our fourth night out of five as I write this. We have mixed feelings because we've grown fond of the place. The rooms are spotless, all have sea views, and ours also has a balcony, which feels like a nice extra. There are TVs, though we've never used them. The outlets are awkward: one is high above the mirror, about 2 meters off the floor, and the other is in the bathroom. I had to bring an extension cord to use the one above the mirror. There's no air conditioning or fan in the room by default, which is a real letdown when most people come in the height of summer. We asked for a fan and they kindly brought one. Breakfast service is good, and they also serve lunch for half-board guests, though we only had breakfast. You can buy water there, and the staff are very kind and polite. Some details feel neglected, perhaps because there aren't enough staff. It seems to need someone willing to invest more, which is a shame given the splendid location. The staff who are there work hard to make guests feel welcome, and I hope the hotel improves. My biggest issue is the lack of hotel parking, since parking in the area is very expensive.
