Staying at this hotel was a unique experience with its cave-like rooms, perfect for a retreat from the summer heat. The hotel is situated in the heart of Matera, providing access to stunning views and cultural experiences right outside. While the breakfast had great offerings, the overall dining experience could use improvement, especially for the price. The comfort of the rooms and the service provided rank quite well, though minor housekeeping issues detracted from an otherwise excellent stay.

The hotel offers a unique experience with its cave rooms and beautiful scenery, but it's let down by poor management and some uncomfortable amenities. While the outdoor areas and breakfast are enjoyable, the lack of basic in-room features like irons and ventilation made my stay less comfortable than I had hoped for. Additionally, unexpected charges for services like valet parking were quite off-putting.
