I Basilischi

The excellent breakfast had quality ingredients, but the real standout was how much care and passion Vincenzo puts into welcoming guests. He made us feel at home, and that sort of hospitality could teach many starred hotels a thing or two. We spent a couple of days at this charming, well-kept B&B over Easter, visiting my son, who lives in this lovely village. I’ll definitely come back. Highly recommended!

The room and bathroom were spacious and spotless, and Wi-Fi was included. I stayed here on November 20th and found the home welcoming, cool, modern, and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful too. It was excellent value, and I’ll be back with my family.

The room was very clean, but it wasn’t equipped for a winter stay. The outside temperature was higher than inside, and on December 21, 2021, after I’d been out for the evening, I came back to a room even colder than before. I’d checked in on Monday, December 20, 2021, after someone recommended the B&B, and the owner had asked me to pay in advance. The heat pump wasn’t working properly. An employee said it would be fine after a day, but when I called the owner about the freezing room, he told me to find a space heater somewhere. The week before, I’d also stayed here for three nights, getting through the appalling conditions by sheer survival instinct. A 500-cl bottle of water cost €45 per item, breakfast included. The bar, tobacco shop, grocery, hardware store, pharmacy, and other places they directed me to with their voucher were always closed. They refunded breakfast at €5 a day because I’d eaten in the same village for €2.50, and that breakfast was very plentiful. This isn’t a B&B for workers, just summer tourists who only have to worry about the heat. I won’t return, even if I have a noose around my neck. Shame on you. P.S. I caught bronchitis at your B&B.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, with a large bathroom and shower, and the B&B is well kept. Still, my room had one cheap detail that let it down: the plastic toilet seat didn’t last long. Little things can make a difference in a room that’s otherwise lovely and comfortable.
