"Room 403 is extremely clean, all sanitary fixtures are well maintained and are exceptionally clean, room floor is wood finished and absolutely clean, windows are well maintained fully operable, HVAC and associated thermostat are quick response, intelligent and rapid acting without any operating noise. Elevator is perfect. Beach is less than 15 minutes walk, very clean and water is clear blue and warm, Restaurant breakfast is full, plenty and delicious, dinner is delicious and delicious local Ciro Bianca wine cannot be found elsewhere in Europe. I and my wife loved the experience of staying at Continental Hotel last two weeks and swam most days for long hours in straight or laid in the sun for long hours. Railway station is 10 minutes walk and Corso Garibaldi is 18 minutes walk. Highly recommend Hotel Continental, as it exceeded expectations.
