Read moreIo e il mio fidanzato abbiamo soggiornato una notte presso la suite Himalaya, stupenda! Il b&b è collocato in una posizione centrale, in pochi minuti a piedi si raggiunge il centro. Appena arrivati siamo stati accolti dalla gentilissima Signora Teresa, che ci ha coccolati sotto ogni punto di vista! Tengo a precisare che si è tutelati moltissimo dal punto di vista del contatto diretto, in quanto si ha la possibilità di effettuare check-in online e pagamento con carta. Il b&b è sanificato e i profumi utilizzati per l'ambiente, sono davvero di qualità. In stanza, la vasca idromassaggio è molto grande e accogliente, le lampade di sale creano un'atmosfera meravigliosa, il soppalco e davvero comodissimo ed è molto più ampio del letto, permettendo anche la collocazione di due utili comodini. Salutiamo con affetto la signora Teresa, non vediamo l'ora di tornare a trovarvi, grazie di tutto😍 Danilo e Francesca...
