Ho dormito qui per 7 notti con la mia ragazza e siamo stati divinamente. La camera era perfetta, grande, con tutti i comfort, balcone con vista, bagno nuovo e soprattutto pulizia impeccabile. Ma aldilà di questo il vero plus di quest'esperienza è l'host, Elisabetta e la sua famiglia ci tengono veramente moltissimo ai propri clienti. È stata sempre disponibile e cordiale durante il soggiorno ci ha preparato delle ottime torte e crostate per la colazione, che si svolge in un aerea comune con una vista fotonica su tutto il paese di Santa Sofia. In generale l'immobile è stupendo, ben rifinito nei dettagli di arredo e nei materiali. È un bnb ma l'esperienza che ti fa vivere Elisabbetta è da hotel a 5 stelle. Consiglio vivamente questa struttura

Beautiful B&B, the host is wonderfully accommodating and truly an exceptional woman. The rooms are wonderfully clean and large. The communal area was a real surprise, we ordered pizzas and ate at the B&B as we had our dog with us. Stunning views from all of the balconies. Even the dog had a great time, and was welcomed with open arms

Esperienza "strana" Premetto che cercavamo un posto in cui eseguire un "pit-stop" notturno per riprendere il viaggio l'indomani e che fosse vicino all'autostrada. Il fato ha voluto che scegliessimo questa struttura che, non è vicino(15km c.a) ma sopratutto occhio a chi non ama le curve di montagna perchè ce ne sono e non poche. Detto questo, arrivati li, la struttura, situata sulla strada principale del paese si presenta con una "doppia Faccia" la prima impressione è stata di una Villa molto bella contornata dal verde anche se all'interno, "forse per i lavori in corso??" abbiamo trovato pallet di mattoni, cocci, attrezzi da lavoro sparsi nel giardino, sdraie vecchie lasciate a "stagionare". All'interno poi la "magia" tutto molto pulito e curato, bello il parquet "storico" e sopratutto l'ammobilio anni 30/40 tutto tenuto molto bene(deve piacere questo stile per carità) Stanze davvero immense ad iniziare dalla camera matrimoniale che oltre ad essere pulita ed accessoriata(comodino, armadio, tavolino, poltrona, tv) era veramente grande e vivibile, il bagno in camera TOP, sanitari praticamente nuovi, la doccia con getti d'acqua fantastica e pulitissima ed acqua calda immediata(non da tutti i b&b). Sala tv e sala da pranzo davvero confortevoli, cucina a disposizione con frigorifero, congelatore e tutto quello che si ha in casa propria messo a disposizione. Caffè illimitato. Colazione nella norma. La Signora che lo gestisce è di una squisitezza e gentilezza come poche se ne trovano, ci ha accolti veramente come figli e non come ospiti. Mi sento di consigliare questo posto a chi, cerca un borghetto da visitare e vuole godersi il riposo ed il silenzio contornato da tutti i servizi.
