Good location, within walking distance to town, shopping, and restaurants. Lovely view of the water, and good breakfast. The pool was good with lots of sunny areas to relax. The room was just ok - it took almost all day for housekeeping to come refresh the room, and it wasn't in the cleanest condition.

Really good stay with this hotel, especially for the price! Nice pool, close to the beach, quiet. It is a walk to downtown cefalu but we enjoyed the walk plus it’s good for you! Breakfast is included which is a very nice perk. We would stay here again!
