Excelente alojamiento en medio de las Sassi de Matera
Pros:

La habitación en plena ciudad vieja en los sassi nos encantó! Muy bien y modernamente decorada dentro de un histórico edificio. Super cómoda. La señora en la Recepción súper amable nos hizo excelentes recomendaciones sobre el recorrido y restaurante

Cons:

El estacionamiento está bastante lejos con subidas y bajadas, así que no se puede llevar equipaje pesado

Pros:

Η υποδοχή ήταν εξυπηρετική ,ευχάριστη και πρόθυμη να απαντήσει σε κάθε μας ερώτημα .Μας βοήθησε πολύ με τα αξιοθέατα της πόλης και τα μέρη για φαγητό. Η τοποθεσία του ξενοδοχείου ήταν πολύ καλή ,στην καρδιά της Ματερας.

Cons:

Το δωμάτιο δεν ήταν αυτό που περιμέναμε.Το πρωινό περιλάμβανε πολλές γλυκές επιλογές και όχι τόσο αλμυρές .
Το πάρκινγκ δεν ήταν τόσο κοντά. Χρειαζόταν μεταφορικό μέσο για την μετακίνηση σε αυτό .

Pros:

Suite molto curata nei dettagli, con le pareti di tufo giallo a vista e arredi di qualità. Ambiente estremamente confortevole ed accogliente. Posizione molto centrale e comoda, all'interno dei sassi. Staff estremamente cordiale e disponibile. Colazione completa, composta da prodotti di qualità (con anche possibilità di alternativa per ospiti celiaci). Sicuramente una struttura che consiglierei!
