My stay in this location was perfect. The hosts are incredibly helpful and go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. Breakfast is served in the morning and with lots of care. The house is incredibly clean and there’s specific parking for each guest. I highly recommend this location. Thank you for all of your friendship.

Lovely stay

The B&B is beautiful, cosy and spotless. The owner, Fabiana, is very kind and full of advice on what to see and where to eat.. don't hesitate to ask! We had asked for gluten-free breakfast for one of the guests, and Fabiana made a delicious different gluten-free cake each morning.

Beautiful alpine views

A delightful chalet high up from the town with spectacular mountain views and fresh alpine air. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious with homemade jams and cake to compliment the croissants and rolls. Local meat and cheese too. We walked down to the town for delicious pizza in the evening.

Un buon posto dove fermarsi

Bella struttura, tutta in legno. Per noi la prima volta di b&b e forse non è la dimensione giusta per le nostre abitudini. Perfetta pulizia, grande gentilezza della proprietaria, un po’ limitata la scelta nella colazione. Tutto sommato un buon posto dove fermarsi

Chalet incantevole, tutti i dettagli sono stati realizzati in legno artigianalmente. La location è bellissima, sia per la vista, sia per i dintorni. Elena, la host, è una ragazza estremamente gentile e disponibile. La colazione è molto buona e contiene specialità del posto. Il livello di pulizia è ottimo. Siamo stati accolti calorosamente e ci siamo trovato davvero benissimo.

너무너무 친절하게 대해주셔서 저도 기분 좋아지는 숙박이였습니다. 아침도 직접 만드신 티라미수, 요거트, 마말레이드 등 정성 가득하고 맛있습니다. 영어를 잘 못하시지만 번역기를 돌리시면서 하나하나 자세히 설명해주시려고 노력하시고 항상 웃으면서 대해주십니다. 시설도 아늑하고 좋았습니다.
