I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is lovely, surrounded by beautiful countryside, and the rooms have a charming Sicilian style, but the soundproofing left a lot to be desired. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made up for some of the issues, but the dining options were a letdown. Overall, it's a decent place but with room for improvement.

I had a pretty good experience at the hotel, especially enjoying its scenic countryside location just a short drive from Syracuse. The room was clean and comfortable, but I did notice that the walls weren't well soundproofed, which made it a bit noisy. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the grounds were lovely, though the dining experience missed the mark on a couple of occasions. Overall, it's a decent spot, but there's room for improvement in the dining area.
