Ho soggiornato in una camera con un grande balcone con vista sulle colline del paese. Il bagno è molto spazioso. Colazione e cena di buona qualità e con la possibilità di richiedere alimenti vegani e vegetariani. Ho apprezzato la cortesia dello staff.

Prenotato e pagato on line. Arrivata mail di conferma del soggiorno. Alle 23 arrivati davanti la struttura il responsabile mi dice che non può accettare il nostro soggiorno in quanto ha problemi di internet. Alle 23 ho dovuto cercare un altro posto per dormire. Poca professionalità e nessuna correttezza.
