    The location is close to the Messina train station and the ferries back to the mainland. The room was quiet, and the air conditioning was good. The room was dated; nevertheless, it functioned. There are no tea and coffee-making facilities....

    How well the manager handled the confusion about our room that supposed to have 2 queen beds but didn't. We ended up with 2 rooms. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and so were the beds. Location was great.
