My wife and I stayed for three nights at this hotel. The hotel was spotlessly clean and well decorated in a minimalist style. The rooms were reasonably priced and were a good size. The hotel had been designed by an architect who is the father of the owner, Enrico. Enrico and the staff were very friendly and Enrico was very... More

Enrico was so sweet and helpful for our one night stay. When I emailed to inquire about a one night stay before we left for Malta, he made sure to write back that I would definitely have time for breakfast. TV is only in Italian. The bed in our room was a little uncomfortable. Breakfast was one of the biggest... More

Perfectly located 25 minute walk from the Malta ferry as well as from the Pozzallo train station. Excellent large room, comfortable bed, very clean with great air conditioning. The TV stations are only in the Italian language. The WiFi works well. The breakfast is pretty good. The owner and staff are friendly, helpful and with a good sense of humor.

A friend and I stayed at this hotel twice, on the way to and back from the ferry trip to Malta. This hotel offers great value and is well located in the town of Pozzallo and near to the beach, but also not far from several of the impressive sights of Sicily. The hotel is clean and the rooms are... More

Enrico, the owner of the B&B, was extremely caring and helpful. He provided translation (we speak no Italian) and transportation without needing to be asked. It... More

This small hotel is well-located close to the main street and beaches. It is thoroughly updated and despite it's lively location is quiet at night. The owner-manager, Enrico Caruso, speaks excellent English and is a valuable source of information on many topics. The buffet breakfast was very good with warm patries, cereal, and yogurt. All-in-all an excellent value.
