Cute little room with a mini fridge and clean bathroom. Less than a 5-minute walk to Sassi di Matera. Wonderfully convenient, close to restaurants and cafes. Room was clean and bed comfortable. Washroom was clean as well. I would stay here again.

Bien en general

La estadía estuvo bien, está muy bien ubicado y el check in no fue para nada complejo. Mejoraría la cama, ya que a pesar de que el colchón es bueno hace mucho ruido la estructura durante el descanso, sumado al ruido de las habitaciones de al lado. Baño completo, con todo lo necesario. A futuro implementaría posibilidad de pago con tarjeta, solo se podía en efectivo.

Excellent rapport qualité-prix pour visiter Matera

Résidence de qualité, confortable, bien équipée, idéalement située à deux pas du centre historique. Facilité pour se garer avec les conseils du propriétaire. Un seul problème : il n'y a aucun numéro indiqué pour appeler le propriétaire et signaler votre arrivée. Seul le propriétaire vous appelle mais si votre téléphone n'est pas connecté, cela devient très compliqué !

Comfortable room, very clean. I walked from the train station (10-15 min) and to the bus station (25 min). You can easily walk everywhere and there are a lot of good dining options around. The owners are very nice and it’s easy to communicate with them on Whatsapp. I would highly recommend.
