I would strongly advice anyone to stay away from this place. Don't be fooled by the pictures on its own website. It sucked! Everything I had read about on the internet turned out to be not so true. First of all, it was located in a not so quiet residential area. With most of the rooms facing street side, the noise of the traffic never stopped even at midnight. The residential area is kind of deserted too, with no real restaurants around except one take-out pizza house. Absolutely no night life.
Secondly, the BB boasts for its terrace and garden. Well, that part is true, though they would never mention that the garden has no life at all. During the evening there were several wandering dogs looking up to you at all time. How pleasant was that!! Also,
The BB boasts for its free internet and use of bikes, but at the time of our arrival the internet just happened to be broken all the time, and there was never any mention about bike.
I have also read reviews about how enthusiastic and warm the owner is. Absolutely not true. Ignazio was not welcoming at all, especially since I accidentally forgot to confirm our double private room. On the spot we were given a room with two twin beds, which was fine for me. No complaints about that. However, as I went back the second afternoon to take my luggage to the airport, he questioned my stay even though my friend was still staying for another night. Later that evening, when my friend went to him to ask for an alarm clock for a early flight the next morning, he got paranoid and rudely rejected my friend's request. If you can't even provide an alarm clock, then probably you shouldn't be opening this place! Bed and Breakfast is supposed to be warm and homey. This is the worst BB experience I've ever had!
Last thing about the breakfast, it sucked... no coffee, no juice, only cold or hot water with bread. EHH.....STAY AWAY!
