    Great location, worth in low season with lower prices

    Our room was next to some boiler/pipes, so every time someone flushed the toilet or washed their hands in the middle of the night, we could hear the noise coming from it. It wasn't very pleasant. The second bed in the room is some kind of foldable bed that was so loud and squiky I had to move to the main bed where my mom was sleeping - there was no chance I was able to sleep on that thing even with earplugs. Thankfully, the main bed was huge. Breakfast wasn't the best - not much choice and not really an Italian type of food. The rooftop was closed, and I only found out from other comments on Booking.com - this should be mentioned during the booking process - I picked the place for the rooftop and location mainly. In summary, we didn't pay much, so it was fine, even with the rooftop not open. I'm sure prices are getting higher in the high season, and I wouldn't pay more for the room we got.

    Great location - so close to the beach and all main attractions. It was very easy to find, too. The staff was also lovely- extremely helpful. They let us check in a little earlier than our scheduled time and kept our bags after checkout.

    The rooftop terrace was closed for renovation which was unfortunate but I'm sure it will be fabulous once done.

    Lovely small hotel in a superb location. Very quiet despite its proximity to the main centre. Breakfast was lovely and the staff were very friendly. Our room was ready early to check in which really helped as we wanted to explore without luggage.

    Grumpy assistant in the dining room. A proper toaster would make a hugh difference and would be well worth the investment.

    Our room was good and the shower was very good. The location was excellent.

    We were woken every morning at 7 by the sound of someone angrily slamming a door. And again a couple more times. When I mentioned it to the reception, the lady just shrugged her shoulders. I suspect the noise was the young woman who does the breakfast getting it ready. She looked like she didn't enjoy her job at all. Efficient, but really grumpy. I was getting a coffee one morning and she snapped "It's broken" and walked off. Fawlty Towers! Shower is tiny. Don't drop the soap, as there's not enough room to bend down to pick it up!

    Great position in the Old Town and close to beach. nice room. Balcony.

    My room was a bit dark and there was a noise in the mornings. However it was last minute booking and basically their last room so no complains here.

    Lovely little hotel in a perfect place! Loved the terace with an amazing view. Enjoyed breakfast (recommend to try a cake!). The staff was friendly. Some of the people who work there didn't speak English, but it was easy to find a way to talk to them with signs and smiles. Would definitely come back again!

    The soundproofing in the room is not great. Otherwise the hotel is ok, apart from the price. If the rate was 50% of what I paid I would have been quite satisfied.

    The location is excellent and the terrace is very nice.

    I feel like the bed weren't as comfortable as I expected. The decoration of the room is a little bit old but it's OK. Also, the breakfast finish at 9:30 AM it can be until 10:00 lol

    I love the location. The beach was down the block, main square also 2 blocks away. It was close to restaurants, bars, shopping, etc. It's not that far from the train station but it's hard to find a taxi so keep this in mine. Good breakfast and the staff was friendly. the view from the terrace is everything.

    The hotel has a really nice location in the middel of the historical centre of Cefalu. The staff was very helpful and offered us a very convinient small and narrow parking spot down the street. Was perfect for one night in Cefalu and we also enjoyed the roof top bar watching the sunset.
