5/5 Excellent

"Really well thought out B&B within easy walking distance to town. Fresh cooked breakfast choices each morning. But it was the staff that made this place just great! Diego! Thank you so much for being super helpful booking tours/buses whatever we asked help with and for having great general chats with. Rooms and mini apartment were nicely decorated. The only thing which was out of the B&B's control was the motorbike noise early and sometimes late, but we would stay here and again in a heartbeat"

The restaurant was nice and the staff friendly. We had 2 pools to choose from, and took advantage of them every day. The grounds were very pretty and well-maintained.
