Villa del Sorriso

3.0 star property
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (22)
"Punto di forza il personale. Titolare gentilissima, molto buona la colazione, facilità di parcheggio. Prezzi giusti. Ricco set di cortesia in camera (aggiungerei solo più bagnoschiuma, le bustine sono veramente scomode e di una quantità ridicola). Struttura un pochino datata ma buona soluzione per soggiorni brevi."

Guest House Al Convento

9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (17)
"We were in two rooms below ground level, which were quiet, but no airflow. One room had a shower that was too small for an adult. They were clean and relatively comfortable otherwise. Breakfast was pastry and yogurt. We were able to park in one of the garages, otherwise, parking could be difficult. The location is awesome - very hard to find initially - it looks like it’s impossible to get to, but once you know, you know. Guessing that their other rooms may be nicer."

"This hotel was booked mainly on price but after booking in, we decided to stay for the week. Potenza is a lovely little town with all kinds of bars and restaurants where you will meet interesting, friendly people. I would post photos but they say they are too big. Get with the program hotes.com The hotel is close to everything you need without having to walk for more than a few minutes and has few tourists. Great museum, which Vittorio allowed us to visit while it was supposedly closed, great...
