    Nothing - it was great. Location - it was quiet , very quiet and that’s not for everyone of course .

    Cinzia at Il giardino was great - had my morning coffee on the terrace while she painted , and a conversation between us in Italiano-English . The terrace is a great feature. Great location and she gave me a number for taxi to book in advance for airport before I arrived- great tip - thanks to Massimo . I would recommend this as a short stay anytime . Xx I booked this trip without research - Ryanair flights were cheap ! I turned out to be a great choice . It’s the end of June and tourists are very low in number . Easy to get around Reggio Calabria on foot . I spent one day here , a second day - went across on the ferry to Messina (7 euros return ) and a third day on the train ( 7 euros return too ) to Scilla . It’s a great place to travel out from as RC is too small to spend many days and that’s what’s great . Scilla - had a great swordfish sandwich in civico 5.

    Personally nothing negative. Those with limited mobility should note there’s steps access the main property.

    Really great stay, good location close to the castle, city centre and train station. Cafe, supermarket, fruit & veg shop very nearby. Host provided lots of information about accessing the property and nearby restaurant recommendations which were great. Really nice rooftop terrace to enjoy the sun.

The roof top terrace was perfect for evening snacks and wine and our balcony was too. Walking distance to a stunning beach and lots of shops and resteraunts.

    Not a lot of contact with the owners and no info to find our way around.There was one room which was shared by two separate units which made it more difficult than we would have liked.

    We didn’t have breakfast as it wasn’t available or we were not aware of the way to order it.The location was a 15 minute walk into the town but it was hot weather.The upstairs outside area was beautiful

    Although the room was slightly smaller than expected for a king studio it had everything you could possibly need for your stay.

    The property was beautifully decorated with an amazing decorative steps and terrace. The rooms were well presented with everything you could need for a short stay. The room we had had a small balcony which was lovely to sit out drinking and eating in the evenings. The location was an easy to locate and a 20 minute walk to the centre which was a perfect location.

    I wouldn’t say it’s a dislike but more of a disclaimer. You do have to climb a few steps to get to the BnB as it’s up a hill. So if you have heavy suitcases, be ready to climb a few flights of stairs.

    The interior design of this place was well done. Very aesthetic and artistic. The room was spacious and clean, comfortable bed and pillows. Cinzia was amazing throughout the holiday and made my solo travelling worth while. She provided me with links to places like restaurants and cafes. I was offered coffee by one of the staff members upon leaving which I found sweet. I’ll definitely be back again.

    No where to hang washed clothes. So there really was nothing wrong at all. I would stay there again.

    The location despite being a street with a lot of rubbish was really good for free car parking. Walking to the shops, museum and Esplanade was not an issue. So good spot for anyone with a car. Cinzia is very helpful, speaks good enough english and was easy to contact.

    Clean, beautiful decor, excellent location. Easy walk to station and main parts of Reggio. Communication was terrific and host had lots of great suggestions. Lots of places to eat, fruit & veg shops, and you must try the Calzone shop (doesn’t open until 7.00pm) for the best Calzone and Arancini ever.

    This B&B is one of the best/most unique accommodations I have ever stayed at whilst travelling!! The decor is so exquisite and has a boutique vintage luxury feel to it, absolutely stunning! The little details from a crochet throw on the bed to the decors on the mirrors and coffee cups have been thought through beautifully. The check in was super easy and location is very accessible distance to the Main Street/attractions. The hostess was incredibly kind and lovely, made me feel very welcomed and even brought me a little pastry to enjoy with my coffee in the morning as I forgot that I didn’t book the breakfast. Free bottle of water and some small packs of juices in the mini fridge were an added little bonus. The terrace is another little gem - very relaxing corner full of beautiful decor to enjoy. Overall - I had a fantastic stay! I will definitely be returning in the future! :)

    The person who let us in spoke minimal English, so google translate was a bonus. Having to leave the key in the front door all the time, and the owner just walking in to get things was a bit disconcerting.
