Great for Polignano, Monopoli & Bari exploring

If you are looking for great location for Polignano visit, secure parking and great continental breakfast and price-performance, this is the place. We wanted to stay 1 night but then stayed 3 days.

The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. But I went to visit there late in the evening I couldn't find the entrance because I couldn't see the hotel sign. Users will feel uncomfortable in the dark.

Disappointing stay

Despite looking nice from the outside, the rooms & services are very disappointing. Nothing of what you would expect in a 4* hotel (for the price you are paying) is provided (slippers, coffee machine, enough water etc…). There was a bad smell from sewage in the bathroom and the AC was very loud. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel
