Unlike most air B&Bs in many ways, this place, Carmela's place, was more like a visit to a relative who has put you up in their home. Always checking to see if we are okay, is everything ok, talking about our families, coming and going all day, and evening, we had a lot of contact across the patio, where we had the outdoor kitchen. We four visitors spent a lot of time enjoying the weather, having a meal, and talking, while Carmela and her family come and go into their quarters. One of us has some walking/stair difficulty, and the spiral stairway posed a problem, so Carmela and her son put me up in her own study, moved a bed in there, and I used a family bathroom across the hall. I literally moved in with the family, who were very careful to give me privacy. The bells ring, the dogs respond to ambulances in town, and we enjoyed so much the flavor of being right in town, in the middle of the action. We walked down to the street vendor who sold vegetables each morning and stopped at a cafe for coffee and a brioche, like all the neighbors. It was a very local experience, and we used the suggestions for where to shop, and where to eat, and all of their suggestions were terrific. It was a wonderful experience to be with this charming and delightful family.
