Piera was fantastic in getting us parked and telling us the best places to eat. He has done a great job in turning a stable into a cozy modern apartment. Two tips for future visitors: 1) read Piera's driving directions and do not try to rely on your GPS like we did!, 2) when you go to Casale try to arrive before the 9am opening so that you can have the wonderful place to yourselves before the buss loads arrive - and skip the baths till last because the tour groups go there first.
