    Nothing...it was simply prefect!

    The location is excellent close to the heart of the old city. Our host, Guiseppe, was a true gentleman and provided us with so much information. He made travelling by car into the old city so easy. The region of Basilicata is beautiful!

    Open plan, but OK as we were short-stay guests. Not keen on the spiral staircase.

    Location fantastic. Instructions clear. Nice gifts from region. Absolutely worth the money for the location alone. Nice character unit.

    Our stay at Ai Sassi di Pietro was marvelous! Everything was great and above our expectation. The property was nice, clean and definitely special! Moreover, Giuseppe was one of the best hosts ever! He provided all the info (including restaurants and sightseeing points). The city itself is great and really worth visiting.

    Not a lot to not like about this apartment as it was ideal for us and our interaction with our host was superb.

    The location of the apartment was excellent and we enjoyed our walk to and from the main areas with some exceptional views of Matera

    Nothing to note.

    We had a very nice stay for two nights in June at this property. The location was nice and quiet and a short walk to the old town area. The apartment was comfortable and roomy enough and made a good base to see Matera from. Matera itself is interesting with enough to see for a couple of days. Expect to do lots of walking up and down especially if you do the walk across the valley for a set back view of the town (we did it in flip flops which brought a few smirks and probably wasn't all that sensible) We managed to find free parking on top of the paid car park you are directed to by the owner. We didn't meet anyone at the property and all communication was done via whatsapp but that was absolutley fine for us. All in all a nice stop on our way round Italy.

    Location. Step out and up a little you will have the whole view of the old part Matera which shown in lots of movies. And walkable to every where you want to go in Matera. Giuseppe gave us a brief introduction of the whole place and a little local taste to take home. We wished we had more time. The place was clean, spacious, fully equipped and full of food. Most important, you can go home bragging about staying in a 600 years old stone cave house! How cool is that!

    The space in the loft was lovely with a large bed. Bathroom was fine and kitchen was well equipped. Location was great being close to all areas of interest. Giuseppe was a fabulous host who is passionate about Matera and ensuring his guests enjoy it also. He even came to the rescue when one of our group injured themselves in a fall.

    The location is wonderful. Easy to access the Sassi and not in the thick of things. Giuseppe, our host, was very helpful and mapped for us significant sites and delightful restaurants. Kitchen was very well srocked; we enjoyed the treats, yogurt, fruit juices, and coffee.
