The property is not worth staying at. We found the room in disgusting condition; the floors weren’t clean, the shower door did not close properly and the shower had mold in it! The amenities promised were not there, including the safe. The staff were rude and careless. Additionally, the AC did not work properly; our room was hot and when we tried to turn the temperature down, nothing happened. Another couple that we spoke to in the hotel had worse issues than us and when they tried to contact the 24 hour emergency line, no one picked up. The wifi was annoying to set up and did not work. Messina is a beautiful city and well worth visiting, but not if you stay at this hotel, avoid at all costs.

It is very noisy at night ( Friday ).The bar next door plays loud music with people drinking in the street until 2am.!!!! Finally they go home at about 3am. It is such a shame because everything else is so good. I can not recommend it for this reason.

Good location. Close to shops and bars but quiet. Nice big room with kitchen. Bathroom was a bit small but okay. Everything was reasonable.

Lovely spacious room. It has an old almost eerie ghostlike feeling to it. We didn’t see a single soul the first day but they remain open during covid times. Good central location.

The hotel has no Reception, after 19,00 hrs, and even if I reached the hotel at 18,00 hrs, there were not anyone there. That is why, I cannot use wifi of the hotel, as the password left in the room was not the good one; this I found in the next morning...
The rest was ok, exception being the fact that when making check-in in the reception (the next morning), my Identity card was copied by xerox, despite the Law for protection the personal data.

Surprising was the fact that this room had a kitchenette...not expected. Fair hotel for the price. Good location.

Arrival time was late. I reconfirmed by phone, and the room key was ready for me upon arrival. Perfect arrangement as the reception is not open during the evening. Comfortable hotel to stay in during summer - very cool.

Very comfortable, clean and affordable. Great location and extremely helpful and professional staff. The internet did not work very well, but do not let this discourage you. It was a great place to stay. If they upgraded the internet it would be perfect

On arrival as usual we handed in our passports and were shown to our room. We were well past the earliest check in time but there was still no bedding - apparently it was arriving at 3 pm. We decided to go out and not unpack until the beds were made.
As we passed the desk there was no one there and our passports had been left on the table. We were horrified as anyone could have picked them up. We waited a few minutes but as no one came we picked up our passports and went out. On our return we were asked if we had picked them up. I would advise anyone checking in to wait for their passports to be copied and not let them out of your sight.
The room was adequate but the fridge was extremely noisy and during the night it felt as we were being tortured by the awful noise.
Breakfast was very disappointing. Little choice and sadly no plain croissants so as we didn't like the cream or jam we settled for cornflakes although we had to ask for milk and could not help ourselves.
That said the staff were very pleasant and helpful. The hotel, although it didn't seem like a 4* was in a perfect position for visiting the Cathedral and other sites. We walked from the railway station to the hotel but got a taxi back because it was a long way to drag cases.

The Hotel was nice and in a perfect area to arrive by car and walk around city center.
However i have to say that the receptionist wasn't kind at all: she was haughty, she looked us from top to bottom and she gave us no suggestion at all, even when we asked about parking (parking front side is for payment, she wasn't helpfull at all about telling us how it works or that in another street close to hotel it was half price)
The elevator has some problem: if you open the door too early, it gets blocked and someone has to call it from another floor
The room was ok, mostly like in the picture, however one meter out of our window there was a big white wall, so the room was pretty dark and the landscape was awfull.
Finally, our room was clean, but the one of our friends was dirty under the bed.
I think this hotel it's good for its position, however i think the prince do not really hit the quality, i was expecting more from a hotel, i have been in better hostel in my life paying less

Hotel is close to the ferry drop from mainland Italy. Also walking distance to most of the cites. Good size room and decent size bathroom. Clean and charming. Call ahead if you can. This is a small hotel and the few staff it has might be out getting supplies. Recommend.
