When we arrived at Hotel Califfo the receptionist was pleasant enough, despite our late arrival. However, that’s about the only good thing about this place. The location is far away from any nicer restaurants, which was poor research on our part. The largest issue was the cleanliness, the room was downright disgusting and I think at best the bed was made and th toiletries replaced. Drywall plaster shavings on the floor, dirt/grim on coverlet, blood oj the pillow case and ants on the floor. Beyond the cleanliness the rooms are dated, beds uncomfortable and they give you two very thin pillows. We booked for three nights and with no where else to go at 10:30pm we stayed one night and left to an Air BNB in the morning. If you are trying to have a nice holiday, do not stay here - its absolutely not worth it.

The hotel met the need, but it's run down (maybe it's old?), cleanliness was totally fine but in our room, we had that second toilet thing we didn't use (thankfully), but when we poured water down it, it didn't work. The shower head base was broken so we had to hold the shower to wash, the shower curtain thing also leaked. Also the AC either wasn't strong enough to keep up with the heat or not working to my standards (the boyfriend thought it was fine... I did not). Rooms also have paper thin walls, we were playing cards and our neighbour came knocking asking us to turn it down -- we were talking normal so we tried to be as quiet as we could after that. Also we figured out quick they run out of food by the 0900 crowd so we made a point to go for breakfast by 0830 or go out for breakfast. All-in... It met our needs of free parking and the mattress wasn't too bad to sleep on.

The surrounding areas are sketchy. I walked 10 minutes to the nearby beach and it was totally trash,dirty and smelly. The room is big,can host 3 people with 1 Queen size bed and 1 twin bed. The breakfast is good with a lot of selections. I enjoyed my stay overall.

We arrived at the hotel, the parking area outside had cracked pots lying about. Upon entering the reception area it was clean and fairly modern, misleading us to believe that our room would mirror this. We were given the key, then first red flag should have been the lift area, literally writing on the wall. Tiny and again dated. 2nd floor apartment, we entered, it was noisy and very dated. Metal ceiling panels with the air conditioner right above it. Noise was unbearable. Bathroom, cracked sink and shower curtain that obviously liked the feel of skin! Waant rhe cleanest curtain either. The hairdryer wouldn't even blow a cobweb never mind your hair! The shower leaked. Bedroom, two twin beds one sheet one pillow. We had to request extra linen and pillows. An old tv wall mount for the larger 1980's style tv with a tiny flat screen plonked on top, which was so high picture wasn't worth having. Not enough plugs, no kettle or cups, the facilities were shocking. The shutter on balcony kept falling down with a heavy thud. Balcony, no furniture to sit on. Not as described regarding hotel offering. No pool music, no atmosphere, no pool bar despite being mentioned, you had to get dressed and walk back up stairs to go to the cafe section in hotel. If you were lucky enough to find a member of staff to serve you. No pool bbqs at all. The pool was dirty. The blue tiles in pool taking on a lovely beige colour and the pool wasn't once netted and debris removed.

Really run down property. Got completely sunk by the photos online. Aircon only works- really badly at night. Not much to do in the area and only 3 restaurant's to choose from. Can’t say I will ever choose to return

Definitely a quiet accommodation so good if you’re looking for rest. Close to the beach and a couple restaurants and a grocery store. The front desk was super helpful, Valentina was absolutely amazing and from the moment we arrived we felt so taken care of, her energy and vibe was refreshing and she was friendly 10/10 for her!

Our room 6 in the residence building was spacious. The bathroom was nice, plenty of towels, great water pressure in the shower, but ran out of hot water when showering easily. Ants in the clothing cabinet and also on the floor near it and near the foot of the bed. Kitchen functional, but the only frying pan was old scratched Teflon. Stove and pan not suitable for cooking steaks. Bed not very comfortable. Hot tub near the pool did not work. Appearance of hotel is that it needs updating. Staff friendly/helpful. I sent a message to the hotel through Expedia asking if they could send my husband's swim trunks to us (forgot them in the bathroom). We would gladly pay postage. No response from the hotel. Disappointed in that.

This was probably the worst experience for myself and my child. We was bitten every night by bedbugs. My sons body is cover up in bites. I was woken with leaks in my bedroom pouring down from the ceiling to the extent I had to put a bucket and towels on the floor. Breakfast was the worst. For the 10 nights we were there. My son was unable to eat breakfast. When I complained about this, the staff was very rude and unhelpful. This hotel should be shut down. Not even a kettle for tea in the rooms or a bottle of water with glass. We practically met an empty room upon our arrival.

I am very disappointed about Callifo Hotel, no Wifi Connect in my room during my 6 day stayed. My son stood in the corridor to get wifi connect to his tablet every day. The staff were not friendly, poor breakfast in the morning not much variety, cold coffee no tropical fruits, just basic cakes and biscuits. the bath towels stink.

The dinner and breakfast spread was delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful even though most didn't really speak English but again, this is Italy, so I don't expect many to speak English.

Nice apartment, sadly the kitchen lacked an oven. Incredible value for money although there was little to do in the area and a hired car was needed.

The front desk greeted us and immediately shouted our room # by hand I f us the key. If this would happen in the US, the clerk would have been fired in the spot. You never ever Disclose a room # in public. This hotel is NOT a 4 star hotel. Get your facts right Expedia
