“The room was air-conditioned and the AC worked great, plus we had a terrace and a balcony.”

8.2Verified guest

“Large, brand-new rooms with a lovely fridge, a fantastic balcony with rooftop views, and a terrace. There was an electric kettle, refrigerator, and glassware.”

8.2Verified guest

“Good value for the price. Not a budget place at all – our room was well furnished and clean, breakfast was convenient though not as impressive as reviews suggested. Wi-Fi and AC worked well; staff were generally helpful, with some English speakers (mostly on the day shift). Very close to the old center, and there's a good artisanal pizzeria a few meters away on Strada Maggiore.”

8.2Verified guest

“Great location, about a ten-minute walk from the center. Nice staff but slow service.”

8.2Verified guest

“Super friendly staff. The location was prime, just a short stroll through charming arcades to the main square. Good room with a little balcony overlooking a courtyard.”

8.2Verified guest

“Stayed here with another couple in July 2011. We expected budget accommodation but were delighted. Staff were very helpful with directions and ordering taxis. The location is ideal, right on the edge of the town center. Clean and well equipped. We would definitely return.”
