Casa Papiro

Fantastic location a few minutes from the beach, spacious rooms and terrace. Kitchen very well supplied, coffee machine and coffee, bottle of water and gas stove. Large fridge, no oven.

A bit dated, shower wasn’t hot the first morning but was ok the second. Quite noisy with chair scraping from other apartments.

La casa era pulita e accogliente. Presente tutto il necessario per poter passare un'ottima vacanza. Posizione ottima: riparata rispetto alla strada, ma 30 secondi dalla strada principale e dalla spiaggia, nonché dalla fermata dell'autobus. La proprietaria è stata disponibile e presente sin da subito.

Non c'è stato nulla che non mi sia piaciuto, mi sono trovato benissimo: l'unico rimpianto e non esserci rimasto di più.

ottima accoglienza, pulizia e posizione strategica. Vicinissima al mare e centro facilmente raggiungibile con la navetta.

peccato per il condizionatore che funzionava poco e abbiamo sofferto un po’ il caldo.

Kitchen was sufficient, I was able to cook and there were bare necessities like salt, pepper, olive oil and a good amount of cookware, plates, cups, utensils etc. Bathroom was OK. Decent water pressure, and hot water, so that earns extra points.

1. The B&B is located down a back street that google maps doesn’t pick up. Very lucky for me, I’m good with directions. How it’s positioned makes it inaccessible by car, and up several flights of stairs (once from the alleyway and then up to the B&B). So good luck if you have luggage. 2. The view from the photos advertised is false. The only view I got was of several neighbors backyards and a construction site. Attempting to have morning coffee on the terrace in your night robe only to see an older man below waving. Friendly but uncomfortable. 3. The apartment was freezing! Save for the heat in your actual room, the comm area will feel like Antarctica in the winter. I can only imagine the summer. 4. I arrived when the island is a literal ghost town. As an avid traveler, I understand slow season, but this was something completely unfathomable. Nothing was open. There wasn’t anywhere to have lunch or dinner. No life whatsoever. I would have greatly appreciated if the host were more informative. Instead, she continuously referred me to places that were all closed for the holidays. I’d assume as a host, knowing more about the place you live during the holidays, it would have been a nice touch to have fresh fruit and bread, coffee and tea etc available. Possibly even invite me to celebrate Epiphany as a local welcome since I was the only guest! A holiday information guide for the island would have also been helpful so that I’m not arriving on my birthday ill prepared with no dinner options, and no further dining or activity options for the weekend. 5. Circling back to the host, she finally made an appearance the morning that I was leaving. From below my falsely advertised view, to briefly say hello and wave. Honestly, I was very upset by this. She was missing in action my entire weekend stay with zero guidance on that closed, dead, island. Only to appear from outside to wave moments before I leave. Note: a little effort goes a long way. 6.
