A marvellous experience
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay at Corte San Pietro and would highly recommend it ! The thing we loved the most were the people, they were so welcoming, warm, and thoughtful and made your time there special! The breakfast had so many options, with lots of local fresh produce, and you were able to enjoy it with piano playing in the background ! The location was fantastic, and the rooms were a step back in time yet had all the amenities you needed.

Fantastische ruimte, en super vriendelijk personeel. De kamer was echt precies zoals op de foto’s. En de ligging is perfect! Matera is echt een aanrader en dan zeker met een verblijf bij Corte San Pietro.

Experiência muito legal!
Pros:

Quartos exatamente como nas fotos. Limpos e confortáveis. Excelente opção para quem quer desfrutar do clima da hospedagem em sassis. Equipe muito solícita e café da manhã ótimo.

Cons:

Para quem gosta de janelas, esteja preparado para abrir mão disso - quem é claustrofóbico não gostará da experiencia. Mas nós adoramos
