Great location, fantastic room, really nice staff, excellent breakfast. Lovely roof terrace for a cocktail at sunset.

The location Beautiful sunset view over the Matera from their bistro upstairs The lovely comfortable cave room (sound proofed & dark) that we stayed in The breakfast was varied and delicious

Breakfast was included and it was very good. We had fresh milk and water in fridge along with cherries, yoghurt, juice and meat. There were cakes also left for us. Every comfort was there in the cave. Simply stunning and there is also a veranda overlooking the Sassi. Listening to the church bells ringing just makes you happy.

The location in complete countryside, for a while there were only our family and the different animals in the property - was nice experience being greeted by the donkeys in the morning and having dinner with the dog and his (not always) friends cats. The property is well equipped, outside area with hammocks and several places to sit down, swing for smaller children, even some outside toys for kids. The owner Angelo is very friendly and nice man, always willing to assist his guests and making sure we feel good.

The back terrace is sensational. I could have sat there for days. The views and the sunset. Wow!

Of course, Matera is a remarkable place and this small hotel is in the very heart of it, fifty yards walk away from remarkable view across the cave town. The room itself was carved into the rock and the public rooms were very striking - although dark. A big bonus is the chance to have breakfast at a smart hotel across the road with an outdoor space which also overlooked the town. Matera itself is truly remarkable - the archaeological museum is wonderful, too, and almost deserted.

Everything. Eustachio and Benedetto were so lovely. They met us at the house and explained every little thing we needed to know, including restaurant recommendations. There are actually a couple of great restaurants right near the house. Also right nearby is probably the best view you could have of Matera, especially at sunset. Easy access to walk all over the sassi. The house itself is an architectural masterpiece right on the edge of the canyon. We could see falcons circling from the bedroom window.

A comfortable and quirky room in a quiet position in the sassi area of Matera. Very helpful staff who gave us loads of info before we arrived. An interesting breakfast with lots of local delicacies which we were lucky enough to eat outside. The view from our room at sunset was stunning.
