Porta Vivaria Orvieto- Private Parking

We LOVED the property and the elevator! It was an amazing place and was in a wonderful location! Only there one day but it was our last in Italy and we all had a marvelous sleep and stay! Also loved that there was a bathtub and seperate shower! Thank you!

The parking is very tight. It was difficult to navigate but it was OK. One of our drivers however got stung in the ear by a bee/wasp. There are bushes near the rear and the end car gets pushed up against the bushes so the passengers or driver get stuck moving into the bush. Thats when he got stung...right on arrival. I would suggest, since the lot is so tight, that those bushes get trimmed back a bit so you can exit the cars without hazard. Anyone who is allergic could be very affected very badly! You also need a bathtub plug that allows you to hold water.

Great location, good size room. Parking was super easy. Small fridge provided was handy. Paintings were nice touch.

The bathroom was a strange layout and the towels smelt too much like vinegar. Shower needed a good scrub. Terrace needed a bit of a tidy.

Very romantic style of the room with a nice shared terrace to stargaze.

Hairdrier is not very efficient and very weak.

Bed was comfortable.

It was hard to find at night. It’s not like a house or hotel. Just a big wooden door with a sign. We missed it driving around and around. You ring a doorbell and the host answered. Room was on the fourth floor, I kept thinking all night if a fire broke out we would not make it out. No fire escape. Super small elevator which was ok as the building is old.. It was night when we checked in, went up to see the room and then went out to get luggage. Host was no where to be seen. The office / check in was in a room that was now closed and locked. When we opened the door from the room, he had turned the lights off in the building and we could not see to walk down to the first floor! Four floors of stairs. He didn’t show us where the lights were.
