Bee Queen Hotel in Marina di Varcaturo

As you can see the hotel looks nice from the outside. The story is quite different when you get inside the hotel or when you look what’s surrounding it. It’s located on the beach, which must be nice during summer. But we stayed there for one night in May and it was an awful experience. There were barely any people around, only the ones living there. We had a few encounters with them and it’s safe to say they looked dangerous and were not very welcoming. They even had wires on their fences and what was behind the fence didn’t look welcoming either. There was even a dead and half eaten cat right in front of the hotel. For the whole stay no one cared to pick it up and remove it. And from the looks of it, it was there for quite some time before we got there. The actual city was a 20 minutes walk away from the hotel. We walked to the city during the night and it was not a pleasant experience as well, since the whole neighborhood seemed really dangerous. We encountered some people on the way who we avoided by a long shot. The place was really dirty and even shoes were lying on side of the streets. The pizza in the city was one of the best I ever tried (of course, since it was Nepali pizza). The rooms looked clean but actually weren’t. We had hair everywhere in the bathroom and the sheets were definitely not clean. The whole room was so white it just felt off. There were also no real blankets. You could hear all the weird noises through the walls and since we had our room on the ground floor we felt unsafe during the night, considering the neighborhood. The breakfast was nice, but they served it in this place that looked like a tent. There was absolutely no air and it got really hot even at 8am.

Old and poorly maintained structure, the room is totally different from what was seen, chosen and paid for on the site (even the bidet is missing). The quilt in the closet is dirty and smelly, the breakfast is poor with poor quality products, the parking is convenient and guarded, the staff is polite and friendly.
