Abbastanza soddisfatto

Abbiamo soggiornato su questo B&B una sola notte attratti sia dal prezzo buono che dalla posizione centralissima Il B&B si trova in una caratteristica piazzetta nel centro storico di Lecce a due passi dal corso principale e da un comodo parcheggio gratuito per gli ospiti del B&B La camera dove abbiamo soggiornato era al piano terreno, molto silenziosa e con materasso molto confortevole In bagno però mancava lo shampoo e la colazione era scadente

Süßes B&B direkt im Zentrum

Süßes B&B vielleicht 20 Schritte vom Zentrum entfernt. Das Schlafzimmer sieht ein bißchen aus wie eine alte Kathedrale, kommt man in's Badezimmer fühlt man sich wie in einem Marrokanischen Riad. Nicoletta war ein bezaubernder Host. Da sich kurzfristig unsere Pläne geändert haben, mussten wir eine Nacht storieren. Man hat uns total nett keine Steine in den Weg gelegt. Und frei nach Mahatma Gandhi: Die Größe und den moralischer Fortschritt eines B&B's kann man daran messen, wie sie die Tiere behandeln. In diesem Fall werden die Streuner gefüttert, was ich auf meiner gesamten Italien-Rundreise nur dieses eine Mal beobachten konnte. Aber keine Sorge, bis auf die flauschige Hotelkatze, die vor'm Hotel unter oder auf den Autos zu finden ist, sieht man kaum eine. Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert. Wir fanden es toll.

Service aux petits soins, B&B idéalement situé dans le centre ancien (avec facilité pour garer son véhicule). Seuls regrets : climatisation manquante (seulement des ventilateur) et impossibilité d'occulter les fenêtres...
