What a place, we stayed in the suite and it was perfect, lots of space including outdoor space! The suite was very clean and the bed incredibly comfy. You have to work to get there but the views are absolutely incredible, definitely could have stayed longer.

Although the room was really nice, the front entrances were left open and unlocked throughout our stay which definitely made things feel less secure and safe - as they advertised the front door before getting to our room would also be locked. The staff was not helpful with luggage storage so we had to cut our trip short - also not advertised. Otherwise nice!!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
​I had a terrible night at this hotel and am very disappointed. It is located at the top of a steep hill, and carrying luggage to the room felt like a "life battle." No one informed me at the time of booking that I would have to walk an hour uphill with my bags. ​When I finally arrived, the was no lobby for this "hotel", construction materials were stacked by their main entrance, the hall was pitch black. The room was small and freezing cold at night because the AC did not work properly. The only positive was the breakfast. ​P.S. Their website ads are incredibly deceiving; do not trust them. It is no surprise this place has a 2.8 rating on Google.

Fantastic room with fabulous views! Although there’s no onsite reception, The First team were very responsive and even helped us with a discount for Via Dell’Amore. They also provided lots of helpful information about the area and gave us special treatment at their restaurant, La Regina. The minibar and water are chargeable, but all the details are clearly displayed. We had a wonderful time and would definitely return!

The property by far has the best views in town. The walk to get there is tougher than you’d think lugging baggage but well worth it. Bathroom and bedroom could use some bleach to get rid of some minor mold but it’s a great place! Host was fantastic.
