Gebäudesubstanz und Außenanlagen machen den Eindruck dass das Hotel bereits aufgegeben wurde. Kein Restaurant, kein Frühstück. Auf Nachfrage wurde ein Frühstücks-Gutschein ausgehändigt, der in einem Straßencafe eingelöst werden konnte: 1 Kaffee, 1 Saft, 1 Croissant. Zimmer rel. klein.

Nous y avons passé 1 nuit en septembre 2023 pour prendre le ferry qui est à 3mn. Certes ce n'est pas du grand luxe mais notre chambre était très grande et propre et grand parking. La personne de l'accueil a été charmante et nous a accompagnée jusqu'à notre chambre en faisant l'effort de parler français. Bref, hôtel qui fait le job pour 1 nuit de transit... et moins pire que tous les commentaires qui nous avaient bien refroidis !

No se corresponde a un hotel de 3 estrellas, ni siquiera en italia. Paredes sucias. Ducha muy pequeñas . Le falta bastante mantenimiento. Los minibares dejaron de funcionar y los quitaron. Es importante en Porto Torres disponer de nevera para enfriar la comida y bebida que vas a llevar al ferry. Buena ubicacion para el ferry

Tiptop und hilfsbereit!

Im Gesamten war eigentlich alles gut. Normales Hotel feeling im Ausland. Jedoch gab es anfangs Probleme weil die vom Hotel unsere Buchung einen Tag später im System hatten. Aber die Dame am Empfang war so nett, dass sie uns trotzdem schon ein Zimmer gegeben hat, obwohl sie sich in diesem Zeitpunkt noch nicht sicher war, ob wir ein Zimmer haben. Später kam eben heraus, dass sie fälschlicherweise unsere Buchung einen Tag später im System hatten. Aber alles war sonst tiptop!

Frigo congel et Terrasse a disposition pour manger

Petit hôtel sans prétention propre et un peu vieillot mais accueil chaleureux. Nous avons pu avoir la chambre 2h30 avant l heure d arrivée. L hôtel met à disposition tout le nécessaire pour pouvoir manger (couverts, assiettes, micro ondes....) Dans une salle où sur une grande terrasse couverte et ombragée. Vous pouvez disposer d un réfrigérateur et d un congélateur commun, ce qui peut être très pratique quand il fait plus de 40° et que vous prenez le bateau très tôt le matin Bien située et tranquille....
