Hotellet bærer preg av lite oppussing oppigjennom, og det er helt greit at det er litt "gammeldags" , men det som ikke er bra er den intense røyklukten på overalt - selv på rommet vi hadde. Frokost var helt grei.

Un albergo per gite scolastiche e infatti di notte orde di ragazzi strepitano nei corridoi nell'indifferenza del personale .Del prestigioso Jolly hotel è rimasto solo il nome, la struttura è brutta ,le suppellettili scadenti per usura o bassa qualità. Certamente la posizione è unica sia per la vicinanza al teatro greco sia a Ortigia che si può raggiungere a piedi con una piacevole passeggiata.

Hotel in posizione strategica, a 10 min a piedi da Ortigia. Tuttavia la struttura è vecchia e mal organizzata. Al nostro arrivo la stranza era freddissima e abbiamo tentato in vano di accendere il riscaldamento: ci è stato detto che non era ancora stata fatta la conversione invernale il riscaldamento......il phon rotto ci è stato sostituito con un mini phon viola da viaggio.....
