Good Value for Location
This hotel is a good value for its location. The only thing I would recommend to the management is an upgrade of the mattress in the room. There was nothing wrong with it but we prefer the newer foam mattresses. We intend to stay at this Le Piccole Grotte again.

Please note I fully understand that this is not a 5 star resort.. Not properly stocked with towels or toilet paper. Air conditioner did not work properly. Sheets are clean and nice - Bedding cover is very old, worn and faded. Same with the furniture in the room.

The view is worth the walk
Scilla is an amazing town and the Picollo Grotto was perfect for experiencing old Italy. All the amenities and all the charm.

Charming B&B in an old cobbled street
Le Piccole Grotte / La Locandiera is lovely. It's in the heart of Scilla's old town on a narrow, cobbled street barely accessible by car (if you're driving you'll have to park on the main road a good couple of street up the hillside) and a ten-minute walk from the beach. It's in an old house, renovated to a good standard (including a lift) but in keeping with the style of the building and the bedrooms have a rustic charm to them. Our room was spacious and comfortable and we had a balcony which gave onto the sea which was wonderful. We really found our stay in Scilla relaxing and restoring and ate lots of fresh fish and seafood. The only thing I would improve about La Locandiera is the breakfast, which could have more selection on the buffet (cold meats, cheeses, etc). I would definitely recommend it.

Quaint B&B with interesting art
Our overnight stay in Scilla was marred by inclement weather but that did give us an appreciation for the treacherous seas that local fishermen must deal with. The property is in a narrow street away from the town centre and the lower beach area, however we found enough dining choices nearby once it started to pour rain. Room was very small with not really anywhere to put bags out of the way, but it did have a nice aspect onto the street and looking out over rooftops.

beatifull Scilla
Lovely, nice, clean, fabulous B&B for us a danish couple 67 and 70 years old. We visited this wonderfull place for 3 sunny days in october 2014.Sea wieuv. You can't drive car in the narrow streets and there are many steps, but in spite of that 5 stars of 5. Many kind regards to the helpfull host and the owner from Oluf and Edith Danimarca. We hope we will be able to return.

Il ragazzo che fa le camere molto carino e gentile, chi lo gestisce poco disponibile e scortese. Il punto in cui è posizionato è molto bello ma pecca per la scarsità dei servizi.

Pessimo!
Il gestore si è comportato malissimo. Arrivati sul posto dopo aver fatto 200 km mi ha accusato, con soldi alla mano, di aver cancellato la prenotazione e quindi non aveva una stanza! Ma stiamo scherzando?! Ha lasciato me, mia moglie e mia figlia di 19 mesi in balia del sole. Non si lavora certo in questo modo! E umanamente non ci si comporta così! Davvero molto scorretto! Sconsiglio vivamente di andarci!

Camere vista MURO. Niente reception. Non si è visto nessuno. Scale ripidissime e strette, scarsissima luminosità. Materasso scomodo. No breakfast. Insomma da evitare.

Mai più.
Truffa. Dopo aver contattato l'host per conferma nei giorni precedenti, ricevo una telefonata in un Italiano maccheronico la sera prima della partenza dove ci proponevano di soggiornare a Bagnara Calabra almeno la prima notte a causa di un guasto idraulico. La faccenda non mi convinceva, ma nonostante le mie ripetute domande la struttura ha sempre negato l'overbooking. Mentre attendo eventuali aggiornamenti sul fantomatico idraulico, scopro da altri ospiti del nuovo hotel che eravamo ben in 7 ad essere stati spostati (le stanze delle piccole grotte sono 5, quindi trattasi necessariamente di overbooking). Sconsigliatissimo. Poca serietà, specchio di gran parte della regione (non tutta, per fortuna) in cui sono nato.

Bed, no Breakfast
L'insegna dice 'Bed and Breakfast' ma poi ti dicono che sono 'affittacamere' e quindi niente colazione. Ok. Nei servizi è menzionato il Parcheggio. In realtà il parcheggio non c'è proprio, ti devi fare più di un kilometro a piedi con le valigie dal più vicino parcheggio 'custodito'.... all'ingresso viene sbandierato un fantomatico 'servizio navetta', ma se chiedi informazioni scopri che, come la colazione e il parcheggio, anche questo non esiste. Poi: la camera ha una bella vista sul mare, e questo è indubbio. Parecchio rumorosa fino alle 2 di notte. Chi non fa la doccia per primo la fa fredda. Il televisore non si accende. A parte questo, il paese e' bellissimo e vale il soggiorno. Quindi Scilla voto 10, Le Piccole Grotte 5-.

Accoglienza marginale e indifferente, stanza carina ma calda all'arrivo nonostante chi la gestisca sa che si tratti dell'ultimo piano sotto il tetto
