This is a friendly family place. Everyone was very nice to us. We loved seeing the several generations around playing cards and helping out. We had a great albet small room with small bath and a terrace overlooking Positano. I can't think of any complaints about the place. The breakfast was simple. If your going on your honey-moon perhaps you... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in April, using this as our base to travel around the Amalfi Coast. It was a small hotel with friendly staff who were willing to help were possible. The location was ok, there were a few nice local restaurants within walking distance and a laundry mat across the road. Our room was spacious but... More

We have spent the past month traveling and this was by far the worst hotel and is the same cost as much better hotels. The rooms occupied by our children had sewerage smells from the showers, rooms were sparsely furnished, poor beds and with one exception the staff are sour, mean and unhelpful. The overall effect is eastern Europe from... More

Great little hotel with smiley, friendly & helpful family staff. I was worried about some of the negative reviews I'd read about the hotel, but i can tell you this is one of the best value for money hotels we've stayed for a long while. Completely unpretentious, down to earth, very clean, spacious & comfortable hotel with the most amazing... More

Firstly let me say that this hotel is not close to the beach and in Positano that means that it is up a very steep hill and the beach is accessed by foot via many stairs. However there is a very inexpensive bus (.40c) that runs frequently past the hotel and does a loop of the town so it is... More

Friendly family run hotel, just back after stayed three nights. All rooms had air con, were clean and tidy and have either a balcony or terrace with a sea view. Breakfast room upstairs also overlooks the sea, very light and airy feeling. Basic European style breakfast, cereals, juices, toast, yogurt, tea/coffee was slightly disappointing but adequate for our needs. Car... More

Our stay was very nice. The hotel is very clean, staff is pleasant and the setting is very peaceful. The view is spectacular and I continue to remember the lovely views from our room. We were right across from the bus stop, walking distance to a couple of restaurants and across street was a laundry mat and a couple of... More

We were 2 ladies on a 1 month Italy experience. We made this a late booking within a week of arrival due to a misunderstanding with another booking and we were very pleased with the outcome. The family were very helpful they all speak good English and have refurbished the hotel not so long ago. It has perfect sea views... More
