"to begin with I have to admit I liked the 501 against my better judgement at times but the location and views allows a lot to be forgiven.
I can imagine the 501 in its glory days would have been spectacular. the architecture is still on place and quality never goes out of style.
however the old girl does look a little tired and could benefit from a little renovation in places.
the staff, mainly Italian or course and many locals, can be a little abrupt or disinterested when they are busy...
"This was such a lovely stay after a sailing trip. It has a beautiful view of the ocean and marina, and is easy to walk to from the marina. Rooms are nice and comfortable and ours had a beautiful balcony patio with a view. The owner was lovely and very helpful. He even provided a ride to the airport for a fee, super handy! Would stay again! "
"Fantastic appartement hotel with good location, view, helpful and kind staff.

"Place is brilliant but sadly the place is in disrepair, it is old and needs an upgrade. Wifi works only in reception when it wants to. Would not stay again "
