It truly is a small art gallery with all the works of art from Andrea and others. The history and historical pieces are interesting, although it does make you feel like you're in a museum rather than a home to call yours for a stay a bit. It did have the most comfortable bed of our entire stay in Italy. The temperature inside was 82 degrees, so hopefully during the summer the AC is turned on and made more comfortable for guests. The pictures are spot on and Andrea was a responsive host.
