Onverwacht goed restaurant in een eenvoudig, gastvrij hotel in een hooggelegen dorp.
Pros:

Erg goed restaurant, vriendelijk Duits sprekende eigenaar, aardige hulpvaardige bedienende dame die ook Duits sprak. De ongedwongen Italiaanse dorpssfeer. De aanwezigheid van een lift en een mooie tuin. Goede prijs/kwaliteitrelatie.

Cons:

De bochtige weg naar boven en beneden. Stuurkunst vereist.

Un breve pernottamento in un posto in cui tornare sicuramente
Pros:

Ho pernottato, arrivando molto tardi la sera e ripartendo l'indomani di prima mattina. Tuttavia sono stato comunque accolto al mio arrivo dai proprietari, persone molto gentili e cordiali.
La notte ho dormito benissimo, la camera aveva tutto il necessario e dimensione più che adeguate per le mie esigenze

Cons:

Nulla da segnalare a riguardo, tutto ok

Ein traumhafter Aufenthalt auf unserer Rückreise aus dem Urlaub, der zum eigentlichen Highlight für uns wurde. Wir komme
Pros:

Das Restaurant und das Hotel ist ein wahrer Geheimtipp. Wir haben einen Zwischenstopp auf unserer Reise aus der Toskana gemacht und waren außerordentlich zufrieden. Die Zimmer sind zwar einfach, aber sehr zweckmäßig, sehr sauber und sehr komfortabel ausgestattet. Das Restaurant sucht seinesgleichen. Das Personal am Empfang und auch im Restaurant war sehr zuvorkommend, sehr freundlich. Wir können das Hotel und das Restaurant uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
Erwähnenswert ist auch die besondere Lage. Die Ortschaft liegt auf etwa 800 m Höhe in einem traumhaft und malerisch gelegenen Dorf.
Das Hotel verfügt über einen malerischen Garten mit Kastanienbäumen

Cons:

Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt
