“The hotel occupies a striking historic building in Messina, and while some past reviews mention inconsistencies, the large rooms and available kitchenettes remain a distinct advantage for longer stays. I appreciate the self-check-in and central location near public transport. The rooftop terrace could be a high point with better utilization.”
