We were given the economy room which was small, old, depressing and according to the owner needed remodeling. Bathroom was very small, the fan was very noisy.Water for showering was barely warm. View was far from courtyard view, as it was mentioned during reservation.It faced the back facade of another building with fixtures.Some of the staff were unfriendly, including an old gentleman, possibly the owner and a young girl, thin with long hair. Wifi wasnt working, in the room or in the property.they attributed it to the weather.rain??? Coffee at breakfast room was from vending machine. I wouldn't recommend it at all.

Beach holiday in Cefalu
The Hotel is very well placed in a quiet side street 5 mins walk from the town beach and close to the Duomo. The Hotel is traditional. The room was clean with good air con. The bed was comfortable. The staff were very helpful. The breakfast was OK but could have had a bit more choice and better stocked.

This is a decent hotel for the price, while a little dated, it was clean and the location is excellent. The family that run the hotel are friendly and helpful. The hotel is a 5/10 minute walk from the beach (depending on which part of the beach you plan to visit) and it is centrally located for all the restaurants / bars. The building has a terrace on the roof with some nice views so it is nice to sit there with some drinks in the evening. I would re-visit.

Central but could improve
The bed was very uncomfortable. Also the room window was facing some scalfolding in a pit, not a courtyard as it says. Mini Fridge barely working, it took overnight to cool the water. Breakfast was fine basic stuff like eggs, croissants, coffee, fruits, though when ran out of juice it took around 10min to refill. Very central location, friendly staff. Safe to leave things. Modern lock mechanisms and you can open the door from your bed also lights, except central light doesn't work. Clearly they saved on the art work :)
