Room types

Locanda del Golfo has two room types, both 18 square metres and overlooking the property’s inner courtyard. All units are air-conditioned and include a private bathroom with toiletries and hairdryer, flat-screen TV, coffee maker, refrigerator, microwave and wardrobe, ensuring a consistent level of comfort regardless of choice.

The main difference lies in the bed configuration and the maximum number of guests: the Double Room is designed for two people with a French double bed, while the Twin Room with Private Bathroom, although able to accommodate up to two people according to the property, features two separate single beds, a solution better suited to those travelling together but preferring to sleep in separate beds. Both rooms are non-smoking and benefit from heating and free WiFi connection.
