Our room was quiet, clean, and comfortable. There was plenty of hot water in the roomy shower. The bed was very comfortable and well appointed. The breakfast was replete with choice and the room itself was delightfully charming. The elevator was tight with luggage, but otherwise an easy ride. Our hosts were exceptionally helpful and kind. The location was terrific! We enjoyed our 6-day stay very, very much.

Very friendly and welcoming and simple guest house. The rooms are traditional Italian style, this is no monochrome Hilton, and we were lucky enough to have a room overlooking the main street. Everything you need, good location, and very helpful staff.

The property is in an ideal location with great transport links. I cannot fault the rooms or amenities, every need is catered for. Beds and pillows very comfy and a good breakfast selection in the beautiful dining room. The lovely owner greets you in the morning and is very helpful. If you prefer a traditional, historical and genuine Italian feel, then this is the accommodation for you.
