Das Schlafzimmer sieht ein bißchen aus wie eine alte Kathedrale, kommt man in's Badezimmer fühlt man sich wie in einem Marrokanischen Riad. Nicoletta war ein bezaubernder Host. Da sich kurzfristig unsere Pläne geändert haben, mussten wir eine Nacht storieren. Man hat uns total nett keine Steine in den Weg gelegt. Und frei nach Mahatma Gandhi: Die Größe und den moralischer Fortschritt eines B&B's kann man daran messen, wie sie die Tiere behandeln. In diesem Fall werden die Streuner gefüttert, was ich auf meiner gesamten Italien-Rundreise nur dieses eine Mal beobachten konnte. Aber keine Sorge, bis auf die flauschige Hotelkatze, die vor'm Hotel unter oder auf den Autos zu finden ist, sieht man kaum eine. Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert. Wir fanden es toll. ##### Josi ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martina, Milano 23 Aug 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Posizione, struttura e accoglienza/supporto ottimi.
