Lots of Room

The apartment is roomy and nicely equipped with modern conveniences. Less than a 15 minute, mostly flat, walk to the sassi (old town.) The host was great, quickly responding to my questions. Would stay here again.

Lovely Matera

Matera is truly an astonishing place. The apartment worked really well for us as the walk to the Sassi was interesting, not too far yet in a much quieter part of the city. Antonieta was very responsive to our various questions and it’s very easy to arrive in and leave Matera from this location. We parked our Caron the street for free and left it there during our stay.

Beautiful apt with all details considered by the very considerate host.

This is a jewel of a place. Coffee, brioche, even milk is here for the guest. And what a pretty apt. Balconies facing two directions, ample parking, easily walkable to old town, a beautiful bathroom, nice furniture. Every detail has been well considered and made available. This host is smart, detail oriented, and thoughtful to the extreme. I wish I had booked longer than 1 night. It was.not enough time to enjoy this lovely town...

Great apartment and flexible hostess

The walk to the Sassi was about 20-25 minutes. The apartment was excellent and the hostess was welcoming and allowed us to leave our bags before official check in time.

Balkone in Matera

Schön gelegene Ferienwohnung außerhalb des Zentrums, aber gut fußläufig zu erreichen. Sehr sauber und gepflegt mit Balkonen in Wohnzimmer und Schlafzimmer. Nette kleine Geschäfte in der Nähe aber auch ein gut sortierte Supermarkt.

3 days in Matera

For our purposes, the flat was perfect. We enjoyed our time there. Everything as posted. It is on the 3rd level - no lift. The walk to the core historic area felt safe, about a 15 minute walk. Antonella was great to work with. Thanks for the nice accomodations!

What an incredible place, beautiful, so comfortable, clean and convenient.

If this were a hotel it would be five star. But it’s better because it is an apartment with all the amenities thoughtfully and thoroughly provided. Antoinetta is a great host, obviously cares very much for the experience of her guests. She also kindly met me at the bus area. I love the location of this apartment. It’s an easy walk to the Sassi. I’m actually glad I did not stay in the Sassi, I very much enjoyed walking the neighborhood around the apartment. This is the best apartment I have ever stayed at.

Ottima impressione della casa: accogliente e bella, funzionale e molto comoda al centro storico

Siamo una coppia di ultra 50enni. I 3 giorni a Matera sono “volati” e siamo stati molto bene. La proprietaria è gentile, accogliente e premurosa.

Superiore alle aspettative

Appartamento pulito,luminoso,confortevole e accessoriato.Ha superato le nostre aspettative....viaggiando con una bimba piccola in questo appartamento abbiamo trovato tutto il necessario per trascorrere un week end rilassante! E che dire della proprietaria, una signora squisita, disponibilissima e sempre presente. Ci ha accolto con un regalo, una calamita raffigurante Matera, e ci ha lasciato in casa una colazione con i fiocchi, abbondante e varia...queste sono accortezze che non si trovano in tutte le case vacanza!!! Peccato aver trascorso solo una notte. Lo consiglieremo di sicuro a tutti i nostri amici! Veramente 10+

Sig.ra Mariangela, grazie mille per le belle parole. È stato un piacere ospitare lei e la sua graziosa famiglia. Spero di poterla ospitare nuovamente al più presto. Antonella
