Review by hotel critic
During our stay at Casa Calliope, we were pleasantly surprised by the incredible value for money offered. the apartment was extremely spacious with a fully furnished kitchen, essential for those who enjoy cooking even on vacation. the presence of a washing machine, clothes horse, and pegs made our stay convenient, and the large shower was a welcome sight compared to the snug ones often found in Italy. the apartment boasted four layers of security, ensuring a safe environment for guests. the proximity to the train station and archaeological sites, as well as the nearby supermarket and bakery, added to the convenience of the location. While some luxury elements like live entertainment were missing, the overall comfort and practicality of the apartment, including the comfy bed and essential amenities, far outweighed any minor drawbacks. For travelers seeking a mix of affordability and functionality, Casa Calliope offers a compelling option for a stay in a prime location.
