A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Abbiamo alloggiato una notte in due coppie di amici in questo comodo BeB, la posizione è ottima per visitare Matera e i Sassi, si trova proprio in centro , le camere nuovissime con materassi molto comodi e ricche di servizi e dettagli, pulizia impeccabile, Francesco ottimo Host ci ha dato degli ottimi consigli per dei ristoranti in zona. Consigliatissimo!”
“Buongiorno! I would highly recommend Matera Guest House! It has the perfect location! Francesco, the owner/manager is so kind and helpful on all points Matera, parking, and gives his WhatsApp so you can ask questions whenever you like! This made our stay amazing! Up one flight of wide stairs, welcomes you into the main shared area for tea and espresso, if you like. In your spacious and very clean room, you will find TV, airco, and a small kitchen with a refrigerator that is restocked with free water and juices (alcohol for a charge, of course). Want to know where to eat? Francesco will let you know! But there is so much to choose from, you can hardly go wrong. Look for my reviews on where we went on our mother-daughter trip! There was not a place that disappointed! Matera Guest House, thank you for making our stay so amazing! Con amore , arrivederci, Ciao”
“Posizione ottima, accoglienza UMANA con Francesco che si è presentato personalmente e ci ha fornito tante dritte per un soggiorno migliore a Matera. La camera è nuova, molto pulita, dotata persino di una zona salottino/angolo cottura. Colazione inclusa sia in struttura con caffè e alcuni prodotti confezionati, sia fuori dalla struttura presso un bar convenzionato. Meglio di così! Grazie per l'accoglienza, sarà un piacere tornare da voi!”
“We arrived in Matera on a Monday night, Francesco was so kind to pick us up from the bus stop and answer to all our questions. Nice, comfortable and clean room with all the basic comforts and a very useful minibar. The only reason why I'm not giving 5 starts is beacuse of a peculiar smell in the bathroom from time to time. Moreover, when the other room had the air conditioning on, having the balcony open was quite noisy. Apart from this given the great location and all the things I've mentioned already, I would definitely come back!”
