I enjoyed my stay at Elisa's place. When I arrived everthing was nice and clean and there were beverages and snacks to tide me over until I could get to one of the nearby stores. The hosts are a very nice family who helped me with whatever I needed. And their dog is a real sweetheart! Across the street is a friendly cafe where you can be immersed in the local culture every day, even if you don't speak Italian. All in all, this place was a peaceful and relaxing transition between my busy life at home and the subsequent weeks of sightseeing in several big cities.
