"Fantastic location overlooking the port and the castle. Overall, very good value for money. With a little effort, it could be superb. The bed linen, whilst very clean, was very worn and paper pillow cases on the spare pillows let it down. Some of the electrical appliances seemed to have the wrong sort of plug - northern rather than southern European, so difficult to use and concerns re forcing them into the sockets. Otranto makes a very good base for exploring the local countryside."

Also would prefer to see ‘pump’ soap & shampoo dispensers rather than having to use multiple sachets in the shower. Otherwise would have been 5 star."
