The hotel is very well situated in a quiet area of Palau and the sea view balcony rooms have an incredible view out over the marina and beyond. The room was nice, a shame that the door did not line up to see the view out. The air conditioning and bathroom were great, but there are no tea/coffee making facilities and the bed was not overly comfortable. Over a 4 night stay, there were 2 significant power cuts in the area, one of which went on for a few hours and made the room uncomfortable. The WiFi was absolutely awful throughout the entire stay.

The hotel is tired and needs maintenance. We had very little hot water in the shower, broken furniture, the floor wasn't clean, the outdoor furniture was filthy. We also had no soap in the shower. There is obviously no money being spent on the facility.

The view of the La Maddelena islands was lovely. Definitely ask for a room with a view. The parking was in a dirt lot near one of the entrances. It cost extra and was worth it since I didn’t see any available parking on the narrow streets.

Is a nice 3 star property in a middle class neighborhood. Had issues finding it due to wrong address on Expidia app. Bed was uncomfortable and everything else was humble. The best thing about the hotel “ B&B” is the View and the Front Desk manager who was exceptionally helpful and friendly 💖💖💖

The room we had was overlooking the port with a large balcony. It was uphill so we had a good passaggiata walking to town for dinner and back. There is no elevator so be prepared to carry luggage up a winding wooden staircase. There is an upper parking lot where you can put your luggage to avoid the staircase if the fire door is open.
