Petit Hotel in Milazzo, Sicily

A brightly painted building with the sign "PETIT HOTEL" is visible, featuring balconies with plants and flags. In the foreground, a person stands on a dock by the water, with boats and palm trees nearby.

It always feels weird to see French names used in non French speaking countries, I guess it's either “cute” or “classy”.

Milazzo is a municipality in the Metropolitan City of Messina, Sicily, southern Italy.

Several civilizations settled in Milazzo and left signs of their presence from the Neolithic age.

In Homer's Odyssey, Milazzo is presumably the place where Ulysses is shipwrecked and meets Polyphemus.

The city stands at the beginning of a peninsula about 8 km long (Capo Milazzo) in the Tyrrhenian Sea, in a northerly direction.
