“My stay at Giachi Friendly Rooms was excellent – a short walk from the bus and train stations. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a good bed and air conditioning. The fridge and electric kettle were handy. Host Valentina was friendly, sending useful info and directions ahead of time. Thin walls and street noise were minor issues, but the value and convenience win. Highly recommend for its value and convenience.”
