"This was a unique and very fun property, perfectly located in one of the cave neighborhoods. The staff was wonderfully helpful. The room was well equipped, comfortable, and splendidly strange."

This was a unique and very fun property, perfectly located in one of the cave neighborhoods. The staff was wonderfully helpful. The room was well equipped, comfortable, and splendidly strange.
The room was, appropriately, rather dark, and I sometimes struggled to locate items in my suitcase. But really, more lighting would have broken the mood.

Matera is beautiful. Cool historic property in great location. Very comfy bed. Incredible views.
Service at restaurant extremely slow. Ate my entire breakfast before receiving my coffee both mornings.. Laundry facility was outside our room and workers were noisy at 2 am. Felt the price was high compared to other equivalent luxury properties we stayed at during our time in the Puglia region. Our initial impression was a "wow", but didn't hold up.

It was really cool being in the cave as an experience. The staff were really nice and it’s an excellent restoration project.
As to be expected with a cave, it is quite dark and damp in the rooms. But it is an experience. The biggest issue for me was the value for money. It’s cool to be able to say that we stayed in a cave, but I wouldn’t recommend it to others just because I think it is too expensive for what it is.
