however when i approached the door and tried to enter , there was no response or answer, i
also tried to call a dozen times to no response!

"Based on previous reviews we were looking forward to our stay in Melfi and were not disappointed. The apartment is bright and modern and perfectly located within very short walking distance of cafes and restaurants as well as Melfi castle. Our host Giorgio was very friendly and gave us many recommendations for our stay and kept in touch to ensure everything was to our liking. Highly recommended property and a wonderful host. Thank you!

"Un'autentica immersione nella quiete delle campagne lucane, a soli cinque minuti da Potenza e in posizione ideale per visitare borghi suggestivi come Pietrapertosa e Castelmezzano. La casa è spaziosa, accogliente e dotata di tutti i comfort: ampio soggiorno, cucina pratica e ben attrezzata, una camera matrimoniale e una con letto singolo. Ogni finestra regala una splendida vista sul paesaggio circostante. L’host Biagio è stato estremamente gentile e disponibile, aiutandoci anche con un...

"We were looking for an out of the way quiet apartment to base a month trip to Italy. I had heard about Calitri from a House Hunters International show on HGTV. The people of the town were lovey....friendly and welcoming to us. I orginally was not going to have a car but I think it would have been very difficult to be in this town with a car to explore surrounding areas. Host was super quick to respond with questions we had. All in all a great month!

"mi è stata "assegnata" questa struttura,, in quanto quella da me prenotata era chiusa, ma l'indirizzo è stato comunicato all'ultimo momento ed era a 55 minuti i macchina, quindi non idonea. Ho chiesto un riscontro e magari un parziale rimborso NON HO MAI AVUTO NEMMENO UNA RISPOSTA"

"Did not even come close to our expectations. We checked in just to have somewhere to catch our breath and look for alternative accommodation. Left without talking to the host as we didn't want to waste any more time there. It was a converted garage and the so called courtyard was non excistent as your car needed to be parked in what was in fact the driweway."

"This was a lovely old hotel with perfect attention to detail. We had dinner there both nights (area is quite remote) and were not disappointed.
Staff were very welcoming and helpful. If we are this way again we’ll definitely be staying again. "
"Staff was very kind and helpful.
The hotel location is far from the city centre and no good places to eat.
There was a convenience store at the gas station called Autogrill which was open and had limited options."
"All our expectations were exceeded in Hotel Orazio. The building itself is historic and has been carefully restored; the breakfast room alone is worth the visit, and the breakfast was generout. Staff were warm and welcoming and happy to share the rich history of the place with us. Our room was great, opening on to a loggia. Everything was spotlessly clean. "
"Lovely hotel. We stayed with breakfast included. Found the menu for evening meals was a bit limited. So thoroughly recommended the family restaurant opposite. Bar staff were lovely and staff on breakfast duties were also very attentive. "
"Check in was ok, there was a language barrier. We were told the pool was open till 6:30 and it wasn’t. As we got in we were kicked out. There is a charge for the indoor pool, which we were told was 10 but see signs saying 5. The hotel is having building works. People were working as we went to our room. The whole place smells of sewage. We tried to get a drink at the bar but they didn’t have basic things like lemonade. I went to walk the dog and we were attacked by stray dogs that roam both the property and outside and the car park. They are there day and night barking and chasing. Dogs also going around the car park urinating on all the cars. Went back to the room and found it was mouldy, furniture was rubbish, tv not viewable, curtains broken, fire alarm was covered and AC didn’t really work. Tried to talk to reception was told it had to wait until morning as he didn’t speak English, he was more of a night watch man. There are no security doors and the fire doors are propped open and the fire alarm looked like it was still being installed. The room balcony had no furniture to sit on. I got up in the morning to walk the dog and was attacked again by stray dogs. We decided to check out as the hotel didn’t seem to understand the issues. I thought I agreed with reception I would pay for the night we stayed and be refunded the rest and the manager would contact me. This did not happen, her English was ok on check in but nothing when there was an issue. Still no contact or refund"
