Casa Masoli

The walk to the hotel was not bad. Flat and not too many turns. The B&B is in a nondescript building, but inside, it is like a small palace. Aurelia greeted me--she didn't speak much English, so she was happy I understood Italian. She gave me a list of restaurants and a map and took me to the room. My jaw dropped to the floor when I saw it.

First of all, it looks like a room in a palazzo. Second, the space is bigger than my whole house! It has a tub and a shower, plus toilet and bidet. And two sinks. There's also an espresso maker and mini fridge. There are two seating areas. I feel the need to entertain...
