A Bed and Breakfast and a city where I would gladly return another hundred times. The room (with TV and internet connection) is very clean and welcoming even though not very large, but this small "minus" is compensated and overturned by the spectacular view enjoyed from the windows and the beautiful terraces overlooking the Gravina River and the Sasso Caveoso. Thanks to its location, it is also possible to easily reach the nearby center on foot. Another point worth mentioning is Valentina who manages the structure: friendly, always available for directions, advice and even restaurant reservations in the city. In short, highly recommended!
