Convenient location however future guests should know the lift only goes from the 1st to the 2nd floor, so I would not stay here if I had heavy luggage/mobility issues. Also future guests should note that the room stunk of stale cigarette smoke.

The rooms are basic, very basic. The bedding was clean. The bathroom was clean but the shower was old, in need of renovation and did not easily keep the water in. This is a 2-3 star property ideal for a budget concious traveller in transit, but not a long stay. Directly opposite the MSC cruise terminal, so you had ocean views. The elevator only worked from the 1st floor, so you have to haul your luggage from ground floor to the 1st floor. Not suitable for people who have limited mobility. A flat 5 minute walk from the main street in Brindisi which had shops, supermarkets and restaurants. No coffee etc in the room, but it has vending machines in the lobby.

Expedia states breakfast included and we include breakfast included in our Expedia searches.…desk clerk says NO.. actually, there is not a restaurant on the premises. “Free” parking is ONLY if you’re lucky enough to find a space in public parking lot. Thank goodness we were only staying one night. BARE bones, but $65 a night.. definitely wouldn’t stay again.

The staff is amazing

The staff was amazing and the property was excellent

Good

walkable area to downtown and board walk port area with charming restaurants cafes and bars.

The front desk was on the ground floor, as usual in Europe. The lift that I never used was a little bit up the stairs. To get to the 1st floor, I had to climb another circular flight of stairs. The room I had was big enough for myself, with the bathroom having plenty of space. Overall, the fixtures were aged, worn, but clean. The bed was very comfortable, the pillow being a little shallow. I asked for a second pillow and promptly got it. My room overlooked the ferry terminal across the street. The necessary AC worked really well, thankfully. As for location, the hotel is on a main bus line about 300 meters from the palm tree lined main street, Corso Giuseppe Garibaldi I, with 2 little cafes at the end of the Corso that meets the beautiful waterfront. The better cafe is Cafe Au Sonia, a Quarta Caffe member. Well run, and obviously where all the locals go, as it was always busy. The other cafe next door, had few or no folks there whenever I went by. Also, there are several other eateries up the Corso offering a variety of local fare. Also, there is a Eurospin super market a 10 minute walk from the hotel, using side streets. So, would I go back to this hotel? Absolutely!!! Very reasonably priced, not fancy but charming with the lobby having a nautical theme, well located near the gorgeous waterfront and train station, and with a staff that is extremely helpful, aiming to please. The front desk manned 24/7. Consider this hidden gem in Brindisi.

This place is good value and very good location. I had a single room without usable windows (narrow window at ceiling height) I hadn't thought to check that there was a window, and probably would not have booked, had I known. Staff were polite, but could not help as no other single rooms available. No breakfast, but decent places not too far away.

It's fine if you're travelling by car, but if you're travelling by bus, this hotel is really inconvenient so you should avoid it. The room smells even though it's cleaned every day. Also I ate dinner at the hotel, but the taste was average. There's nothing else around so I have no choice but to eat at the hotel.
