Sisters Marcella and Isabella preside over three simple but spic-and-span rooms with shared bathroom and communal balcony overlooking the port. It's less than five minutes' walk from the docks; bear left along the waterfront as you leave the pier and ask a local to point you in the right direction. Per-person rates drop from €30 to €25 for multinight stays.
