Sounded good on paper but in reality was not
Pros:

The central court is very nice with places to sit

Cons:

The shower was cold for two days and there was nobody present all day to inform or help. The breakfast was unorganized - only one member of staff, no plates or bowls and several of the items Missing even though I was early. No possibility to order a drink - no bar etc.

Pros:

Das besondere Ambiente, das bequeme Bett und nettes Personal.
Außerdem dürften wir unsere Motorräder direkt auf dem Hof des ehemaligen Klosters parken.
So eine exklusive Garage hatte ich noch nie.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war gut. Es gab für jeden Geschmack etwas. Aber... Es ist mir bewusst, dass in Italien andere Sitten herrschen. Die Gäste kommen doch aus aller Welt. Ich hätte gerne zum Frühstück Brot, Baguette oder Brötchen. Nur Toastbrot ist bisschen mager.
Bitte nicht als Kritik empfinden.
