We loved everything about our room. Very spacious and super tidy. Very comfortable beds and high quality bed linen and towels. The shower was incredible! The area is well connected and walking distance from the main attractions. Elisa was always available when we needed her. We highly recommend la Residencia Dell'Oraffo.

The receptionist stated an hour longer to meet us and explained the access keys etc. Chiara was very personable and caring and made our stay enjoyable. Any problems encountered were addressed promptly. Help was extended with taxi bookings or bus route guidance. We didn’t pay for breakfast as plenty of cafes, including McDonald, Burger King. A supermarket next door was convenient for buying water, snacks etc. The only negative was a lack of cupboards, drawers for storing clothes. The B&B location was perfect for short walk to main train station and all the popular sites, restaurants etc. We loved eating at a popular place requiring reservation- ZA-ZA. Tour meeting points also close by.

Staff was very helpful and kind. Easy check in. The area isn’t the best, considering it’s right next to the train station, but convenient for travel. The room was much smaller in person, and our bed was 2 twins pushed together. Comforter was black so it just always looked dirty. The shower/bathroom was a lot smaller in person and uncomfortable to bathe in. Towels had stains which wasn’t pleasant. Don’t bother with the free breakfast either across the street.

The location is very convenient. However, there’s no place to put shampoo in the shower room, so I had to leave it on the floor, which was inconvenient. The smallest room is a bit too small, so I’d recommend getting a slightly larger one instead.
