great room, and decent location. manuela is lovely
was advertised as a bed and breakfast, however breakfast consisted of only one coffee and a small pre packaged cake. you could also request things from a local bakery…
ArieleLTA cosy and unique place to stay at!
It was a unique experience to stay at Il Ciottolo! We felt like we were at home, it is definitely not a regular standardised boring hotel.
