A verified traveller stayed at Locanda San Martino Thermae
"The staff were excellent. Very friendly. Our room was beautiful. Shower was great.
This is one of the prettiest places I've seen. There are a lot of hills and stairs but we'll worth the trek."
A verified traveller from Hubbards stayed at Caveoso Hotel
"Great location with very nice hosts. More importantly the room was very clean and spacious with lots of light. Only minor hiccup with check-in but overall would recommend."
