This inn was in the perfect location, absolutely perfect. I can’t call it a B’nB because breakfast wasn’t prepared for us. The owner offered breakfast items for a charge.
The check in was a nightmare and nearly resulted in us leaving and finding another hotel at 8:00 pm.
I planned ahead and contacted hotels.com AND this property to let them know we would be arriving after the 8-1 check in time. I spent over an hour going over this with hotels.com, they said they’d contact the property. I also emailed the property twice the week before arrival. I never heard back with ANY check in instructions. I called the jit the morning of our arrival since I knew I’d be in route. No answer. I used the number straight from hotels.com.
We arrived via taxi and were deposited in the very busy ( and lovely) piazza. The driver told us to go to door number three. Problem, there are TWO door #3s.
It was just a door situated between two busy restaurants. There is a small plaque that shows the property’s name, and a typical buzzer system that you’d find in an apartment building.
I saw “check in” and buzzed. We entered the building, zero signs, just stairs. All we could do was walk. About 1/2 way up we encountered two women. I asked if they knew of a B’nB in the building. Turns out there were staying there too. They called the owner, they told us where yo go, they gave us an access code needed, they checked us in.
Emailed directions would have improved this process.
