Puro charme e emoção
Pros:

Do diferente! De ser dentro de uma caverna! Das instalações internas de muito bom gosto. Café da manhã muito bom.

Cons:

Não ter box. O chuveiro molha o banheiro o que se torna perigoso para idosos.

Pros:

位置就在地標 Chiesa di Santa Maria di Idris 的正下方，走一小段階梯就能到達頂端，對於希望捕捉 Sassi 日景夜景的人是完美的選擇。經營團隊的服務很周到，主動提供交通及旅遊建議，也可以幫忙代訂，對於我提出的任何需求都很即時的回應，非常感謝。房間設備簡約但佈置很細緻，氛圍感很好，是真正現代化的舒適洞穴，而且完全不潮濕！

Pros:

Sarah at the front desk was very helpful. She had our car service pick us up at the Hotel instead of us meeting him 10 minutes away. Carrying all of our luggage would have been difficult.
