Pause agréable pour visiter la belle ville de Matera.
Pros:

L’accueil est parfait; la chambre entièrement rénovée.
Les transats sous les arbres devant la piscine. Et bien placé pour aller visiter Matera.
Et le parking dans l’hôtel.

Cons:

Le prix par rapport à un hôtel français. Mais c’est la norme en Italie.

Teleurstellend
Cons:

Geen idee waar die 4 sterren vandaan komen. Het zwembad is piepklein, er zijn amper 5 ligstoelen aan het zwembad. We kwamen toe op een warme dag en er was nergens een parasol te bespeuren. De kamer was écht klein, er is eigenlijk niet echt een bar, wel een aantal tafels aan de receptie en om 8 uur sluit alles. Het ontbijt is pover , kortom, geen aanrader en de prijs absoluut niet waard.

Un pur bonheur !☀️😎
Pros:

Tout !
Notamment l’accueil par une jeune fille parlant très bien Français et nous expliquant absolument tout sur une carte avec les points d’intérêts, les différentes promenades sans oublier les différents restaurants en fonction de leur spécialités!
Un grand bravo à cette jeune fille qui on le sentait avait grand plaisir à échanger avec nous , ce qui fut réciproque !
Nous l’avons écouté et avons été ravis de tout ses conseils !
Çà fait plaisir après une expérience catastrophique à Bari …
