About

B&B Calcio Storico

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Breakfast may not be on-site — Some guests mention breakfast is served at a nearby café or pasticceria, which might not suit everyone.
  • Not the cheapest option — With a price from £155 per night, it's on the higher side for a 3-star B&B, and some guests rated value lower than other aspects.
  • Check-in window is tight — Check-in is only possible between 09:30 and 18:00, which could be awkward for late arrivals.
  • Some rooms might be small — While many praise spacious rooms, one guest found the suite only 'good size' for a cosy stay, so check the room type.
