Why people love it

  • Location. Guests say it is central, on a quiet side street, and close to paid parking and the bus stop.
  • The hosts. Laurina, Franca, Vanna and Branka are named by guests. One guest who left a phone charger behind said Franca sent it on.
  • Breakfast. Guests praise the croissants, a plentiful spread and a cozy breakfast room.
  • Rooms. Guests describe antique furniture, wooden beams, large rooms, and in some cases a terrace and a refrigerator.

Why they come back

"It's not the first time I've stayed here, the location is very central, the rooms are large and well-kept as is the bathroom."

The worst thing guests say

Small service issues. A November 2025 guest noticed cigarette smoke in the common areas, and a July 2025 guest found the air conditioning weak and old and had to call the owner to be let in. Older complaints include a different room than booked in August 2021 and cobwebs and weak air conditioning in 2022.

Insider tips

  • There is no reception desk, so call the owner before you arrive.
  • Montemaggio paid parking is steps away.
  • Ask about the terrace rooms.
Who it's for: couples and solo travelers who want a central, quiet room with antique character.
Skip it if you want a staffed front desk or strong air conditioning.
