    The rooms locations were a bit tricky to find ( Google maps didn’t seem to recognise address). Thankfully a helpful local called the owner and then showed us the correct location. We weren’t given access codes until paying the city tax by card the morning of our arrival. As we were travelling a lot I don’t think the need to pay was clearly stated. When we got to our room there was another couple who had difficulty locating and entering rooms. The manager appeared pretty upset that he had to drive across town to let them in. I think there needs to be a clearer check in process indicated.

    Stayed the night prior to boarding an ocean cruise so position and comfort were good . Room clean and even had electric shutters to keep room dark. Small balcony for fresh air. Could walk to train station and also main boarding venue for cruises,

    Cleanliness of room was good overall. But the room needed a good thorough vacuum &washing down of floors & cobwebs under the bed. Also foyer. New linens are hopefully in the plan We did discover ants, so spraying is needed. Nightly rate needs an adjustment.

    Host was caring & very helpful. He definitely wanted to please his guests. Very good host. Location is great. Town square was lively. Found unbelievable exceptional real oven pizza place just around the corner in open square.

    Everyday Frederico brought us croissants. They were delicious.

    Frederico was very helpful & friendly. Room is clean & spacious. You still can hear some street noises with windows closed. Location is good with lots of restaurants nearby. Breakfast is nice. Nespresso machine, snacks & extra water bottles are a nice touch. Easy stroll to town center Couple banks nearby if you need ATM withdrawal. Communication with Frederico was excellent.

    Many reviews refer to the property as a hotel. This is not a hotel. It is collection of suites in an apartment building that has other private residences. There are 3 sets of keys required to get to your suite from the street outside. We had some difficulty getting the keys to work so we were afraid to get locked out as it was a cold night. So my wife went to get some takeout food while I stayed to make sure I could let her back in to the building. Otherwise, we had a comfortable stay and Federico was very helpful.

    Very clean property near town centre. Federico was very friendly and courteous.

    Property was initially hard to find - small sign in a shared building. I was told I would be able to leave our luggage with the property prior to check in, this wasn’t true. Which meant we had to carry our luggage around for 4 hours in the 30 degree heat. The owner then backtracked and said we could leave my luggage but it was not his responsibility. The code I was given to the door did not work. The owner then told us we were booked into another hotel which is why we had the wrong code. After 5 hours and much confusion, we finally got into the room, not what you want after 12 hours travelling.

    Property was nice, fairly clean and in a good location.

    Once we entered the room it had an unberable and very strong smell of sewage. The hand basin's drain was blocked, and the garbage can was not emptied out. On the balcony the cigarette buds from the previous guests were still in the ashtray. It was a difficult proceedure to get in, and I was not sent the email with check in proceedures on time. I had to go to a shop and ask them to call the number that was displayed on the Riveira suites card. That turned out to be the wrong number. I asked if we could drop our luggage abit earlier to the room, but they said no. I complained and said it would be impossible to sleep in the room because of the sewage smell. The lady took 1 hour and 30 minutes to figure out what she will do with us. She eventually said she will move us to another property in another location. It was pouring rain and we needed a taxi. The taxi's was dropping us and she told me she can arrange one for €50 for a 5 minute drive. I told her that was way overpriced and that they should be offering to pay the taxi at this stage. She told me it is not their responsibility to pay for the taxi. There was zero service recovery.

    The room was renovated and location was good.

    When we arrived we called to say we were there to be met with attitude from the host that we hadn’t done the speedy check in that he sent on booking a few days before, we were in Italy already and didn’t see it, told it would take 5 minutes, called him back as it needed verification and he said oh I’m driving now. Took us 20 mins to get into building in 35 degree heat. Then the air con broke at 11pm, I messaged on booking and text no response until late next morning when they said it was a power cut…. All the lights were working and turned out it was an issue with the remote that we had to change batteries to fix so that was a lie. Property was fine but staff if you need help not good or anything breaks were useless

    It was located very close to the train station and was clean
