Cercavamo una sistemazione per due notti con occasione di visitare le Grotte... Confrontando le proposte, questa ci è sembrata buona tra qualità , posizione e prezzo. Arrivati non abbiamo cambiato idea.. parcheggio privato con cancello automatico... ambiente pulito... prese per cellulari, luce per leggere a letto, frigorifero, televisione, divanetto sul quale appoggiare due valigie, asciugamani cambio giornaliero , colazione servita in un ambiente vicino... torta, cornetto, yogurt, succo, cappuccio, frutta, caffè . Condizionatore che abbiamo utilizzato per scaldare ambiente visto il tempo... Bagno con finestrino ... Tutto molto semplice ma con tutto ciò che è indispensabile perchè chi è in viaggio .

Gestore scorretto

Ho prenotato per i miei colleghi 2 alloggi per un totale di 4 ospiti . Il gestore ( host ) della struttura ha incassato l'intero importo del soggiorno ma poi ha fatto il furbetto cancellando le prenotazioni in modo da non pagare le provvigioni a hotels.com e di conseguenza mi ha contattato hotel.com dicendomi che non ci eravamo presentati alla struttura e in virtù di ciò mi ha cancellato le 2 notti che avevo accumulato come socio hotels rewards. Questo è un comportamento scorretto è disonesto da parte del gestore .

Sicuramente migliorabile

Poche le note positive che, per correttezza, vanno subito indicate. Tra queste la colazione, abbondante e buona, e la posizione a circa 500 metri dalle Grotte, raggiungibile a piedi. Tra quelle discutibili l'accoglienza: non che ci aspettassimo una festa con fuochi d'artificio ma almeno un pizzico di cordialità, qualità che non manca nel popolo pugliese. Stanza minimale, discretamente accogliente. Pulizia non accurata e decisamente migliorabile. Ultima cosa... le zanzare... tante (ma questo non può essere colpa del proprietario anche se un repellente elettrico avrebbe reso le notti più tranquille).

chi l'ha visto?

Pessima l'accoglienza: nessuno rispondeva al cellulare, nessuno mi ha chiesto a che ora sarei arrivato. All' arrivo trovo un cancello chiuso, suono e non mi apre nessuno: 20 minuti per trovare il responsabile. Il giorno della partenza volevo fare la colazione alle 8, come previsto, ma non c era nessuno : il responsabile è arrivato 15 minuti dopo. Per il resto bene, però così è dura rilassarsi..
