San Quintino Bed Breakfast

A quiet stay with comfortable rooms, close to both the center and public transportation. The owners were friendly and helpful. Excellent.

The hostess made a brave choice during this unusual moment in history, accepting only one guest at a time to prevent contact with “strangers,” even though the establishment rents out its own rooms. Her anti-Covid precautions protected customers at the expense of her own financial interests, and I applaud her for it. The place was welcoming, clean, and has refined architecture. I felt at home, and the value for money is excellent. It’s centrally located, and I’ll keep it in mind when I return to Turin.

The B&B feels like home and offers good value. It’s centrally located, so Turin’s main attractions are easy to reach on foot or by bus. The woman who welcomed me was very kind and helpful, with tips for making the most of my time in Turin. I’d recommend this area even to women traveling alone.

A year ago, getting a shower meant tracking down the water heater, switching it on, then waiting for it to blow. The breakfast milk was already a month past its expiry date. And if you booked through Booking.com, they would get in touch after a cancellation and offer a surcharge, so you had to book again through them.
