Highly recommend staying here! Directly from arrival, Matteo did everything to make us feel welcome and comfortable. After a long ride, it was wonderful that Matteo offered help with our luggage and parking of the car. Moreover, the hotel is located in a lovely building and has a beautiful garden (with swimming pool!). Would definetely come back!
