Our stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. On the plus side, we absolutely loved the convenient access to the cable car and the serene beach nearby. The evening meals were delightful, with plenty of Italian dishes to choose from. However, the arduous climb up to our room and the somewhat outdated decor left us hoping for more comfort. Overall, it was a decent value for what we paid, but the effort to reach the room might deter some visitors.
