BahrainLovely hosts and guesthouse run by a family who lives there for 500 years. Original Italian ambiente. We had a nice room with lake and castle view. Brealfast was delivered to the room every morning (due to covid restrictions). You had the choice between sweet and salty, we took both. Very delicious and varying every day. Restaurants and lake is close by. Highly recommended to stay here!
GermanyThe property was in a fantastic location, a short walk from the beach and the main square. The room was exceptionally clean and the air con worked perfectly. The family who run the B&B were absolutely amazing and did everything they could to accommodate us and make our stay as special as possible. Breakfast was outstanding and they catered for my gluten free needs perfectly. Such a lovely family run B&B, we cannot fault it.
United KingdomThe Hotel is near to the centrum in a quiet street. We had a nice view out of the window on the castle. The room was clean and harmonious furnished.
GermanyThe decoration is made with a lot of taste. We loved the panoramic view of the city from the B&B's terrace. We arrived late because of traffic and were welcomed with only smiles.
