Hotels & Accommodation near Artefatto - L'idea in Terracotta

Beautiful views, excellent location, and outstanding service. I will definitely come back and highly recommend this hotel!

The view from the upper terrace is fantastic: A beautiful sunset in comfortable patio furniture. The location in the medieval castled town is perfect. The villa is next to one of two piazzas, and also is next to the church. Several excellent restaurants are within a 5-10 minute walk. The clean and swimmable Castro marina is a 600 step walk down from the town. The service was the management team was quick and efficient. Items that make the place less than ideal: all the doors are locked inside and out. You must carry the 9 keys at all times, even to get out of the front door. The one bathroom on the main level is very small and the ceiling slopes make using the bidet very difficult to use. The water heater is very small. One shower every 1/2 hour. The steps to the one bedroom on the main level are steep and small. The garbage collector will wake you up at 6:30 am every day but Sunday. The bells from the church will wake up every day at 7:30. Then they ring several times an hour. In Italy you need 6 different garbage containers. The villa has only 3.(Only 2 burners on the stove worked; the terraces haven't been cleaned in quite a while. There are no screens on the main floor doors, but there are screens on the lower doors. The flying insects were very bad. We had to keep the doors and the one window closed at all times. There are 2 TVs, but the repair guy could only get one to work. There's no way to stream to the one TV. The couch is extremely uncomfortable.)

Lovely hotel and good value off season as limited facilities available. It was great as it was nice and quiet. Beautiful sea views and location. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Just a couple of disappointments - the balcony had a very high front so when you sat down you couldn’t see the view! The sides were low so very open to neighbours and anyone smoking on their balcony. We had to keep the doors shut at times to keep smoke out of our room.( We were told we couldn’t swap rooms ) Also worth noting that all the balconies were in the shade in the afternoon when we visited in late September.
