Great accommodation for bikers! Close to Stelvio pass and Switzerland with many day trip options. The sink in the room was convenient to brush our teeth as the toilet and shower are shared, but we always found them clean and available. We enjoyed chatting with the owner, also a biker, who recommended some trips we could do with the motorbike from the accommodation. Unfortunately we didn't have time to see everything but would like to return one day. Nice atmosphere at the bar which has a terrace overlooking the garden. Great breakfast.

Very helpful owner, gave us advice on activities, directed us to good local cuisine, was very attentive overall. All the staff was friendly and professional. Would recommend if you are looking to have a peaceful stay for your active holidays - there are plenty of hiking trails and cycling trails nearby.

“Recommend if you are choosing a local experience.”
Host is very friendly and helpful! Easy to find and if locals frequently come it’s always a good sign.

“Hasn't drifted off into wellness tourism and just offers the basics, and good at that”
Good value for money even in high season in a region that swarms with tourists, both summer and winter. B & B that would need quite some revamping if it was to be turned into a vacation hotel, but is exactly what is advertised: nothing-fancy down-to-earth place for overnight stays for people that require just a bed and a breakfast, which has become rare these days, especially in tourist regions.

“Most authentic place we had on our trip.”
This is a great find – it is a bit of a time travel. Located in a historic building, probably unchanged over the last 60+ years, it has a very authentic charm. The Bar is popular with the locals. Safe place to leave and charge the e-bikes.

“Really good stop for those cycling the Stelvio pass - looks like good for walkers too”
Check in was easy and location was found. We were only passing through so although the room was basic, the facilities within in were clean, comfortable and good. Breakfast was a good selection and staff were friendly. Parking was available at the back but you can offload at the door for a few mins.
