"I came to dinner on Saturday night with my boyfriend. the room is small and cozy, there is a fireplace. the menu allows a wide choice of wines, appetizers, first and second, both meat and fish. We wanted to take a tuna carpaccio as an appetizer, but it was not available as they did not deliver it in the morning. This involves the oo of fresh raw materials, which nowadays is not discounted. then we took two before, ravioli full of branzino and ravioli full of rabbit. both very well. as I think I got a sloppy tuna, tasty. finish tiramisù and chocolate and coconut cake, light sweets, goose and not heavy at all. with two first, two seconds, two desserts, a bottle of water, one of wine and a coffee just for what we ate. I'd come back."

"Ho prenotato presso questo ristorante per il mio compleanno perché dalle recensioni mi era sembrato carino nell aspetto e particolare nei cibi. Ma le mie aspettative sono state deluse...ambiente nella norma e cibo davvero dozzinale rispetto al prezzo pagato . Polenta e funghi acquosi. Non consiglio assolutamente questo ristorante. Per un prezzo cosi esoso, che sarebbe stato giustificato se si fosse mangiato bene, andate altrove."

"we returned after the tremendous experience last year attracted by the reviews (in my opinion unfairly) flattering. The position, like the last time, is the only thing I save. Unfortunately the service is mediocre and the kitchen is even worse. after saying that I was pregnant and advised not to add anything raw, I was served a dish of octopus paste with so many shoots. I had to send him back to the kitchen, and I had to eat alone, since I asked him to come with the other ladies, but apparently it was not possible. I was served with wine when I had specified that I would not drink, at the end of the meal the waiter tried to collect the crumbs from the table with a spoon and the coffees that we had to bring them to the counter, since after 15 minutes from the ordination no one had yet made alive. when it comes to food, absolutely not suitable for the price. mediocre level, for some dishes also very low, like scallops (difficult and covered by a horrid pastry,) gratined scampi (sipidi and soft) the pulp of octopus (salsa di mesh, salt that knew only of walnut). the most good dishes were the anchovies of the cantabrico, the ricotta dish and the Florentine, things on which you can certainly not evaluate the chef, since the first two are not even cooked. Crazy prices compared to the really low level of dishes. it is not enough to put external shoots or edibles in the dish to give it the structure. place for people who love to eat badly and have a mediocre service, you probably do not benefit from attending restaurants that you can define such (and unfortunately you notice)."

"hotel, room, cleaning, breakfast, reception all perfect. great location, the entrance is not illuminated in the evening, should put the lights on the sign in. well-made and level structure, all areas have a nice minimalist but functional design. room a little stripped but with all the essential, temperature adjustable to pleasure and silent air conditioner, well soundproofed room, really great. beautiful view on their inner garden very well maintained. huge double bed as it consists of two beds from a square and a half joined together also with the blankets, very appreciated. large and clean bathroom with large shower, bidet, complete courtesy set. excellent cleaning, not intrusive. disappointment, however, unfortunately the spa wellness part. with the excuse of the covid you are entitled only two hours a day and is communicated only after the reservation. in the selected daily slot there were still more than twenty people in the wellness area which however made it half full and chaotic. another problem is that the spa is also open to children, antithesis of the word relaxation. closed Turkish bath, small sauna for only two people at a time, to make it you have to queue and wait. the nice but small thermal pool, whirlpool with weak and not continuous jets. Good and complete breakfast of everything, sweet and salty, is served. the staff is disorganized, all do everything, instead of being organized for roles (who fixes, who serves, who makes welcome) which makes it unnecessarily chaotic. balancing everything and considering the price I would say it is really worth it."
