We stayed here in June 2012 and were generally happy with our stay! Check your arrival time as if you arrive after 3pm you will need to let them know (I did via email) as the desk is not manned 24/7. We arrived at 3.30pm and they were fine with this and very friendly. After check in you don't see... More

This is a fantastic hotel to say for budget accomodation. The room was clean and comfortable with air conditioning which is a blessing in summer. The bathroom has been renovated and clean. We had bedroom number four which can be noisy as shares a common wall with the bathroom. Staff are friendly and the location was terrific. Walking distance to... More

I'd like to emphasize that this is simply a place that one rents a room with a shared bathroom. It's not meant to be fancy. Though the building has an elevator, it's not available (the hotel staff said they were trying to work out an agreement with the elevator owner). To my surprise, the tiny little woman that runs the... More

We arrived at casa billi, they looked at us like they were surprised to see someone checking in and very rudely asked what we were doing there. We told them we had a reservation and showed them our email confirmation, which she very rudely told me that "this is not a reservation". I'm still not sure what she expected me... More

Dear Ignacio,we remember when you came (we thought you didn't came, this happens more often than you think!) so we were surprised that no one had rung the doorbell and we found out from our door. We confirm that we did see a print of an e-mail, but this wasn't a problem, we don't believe that we were rude askin'... More

Our room was a little run-down yet, decent and spacious enough. Toilet is clean. Reception only works 2 hours a day, so not much contact. There was no lift and it can be quite tedious carrying luggage up and down 3 storeys. Yet, location is good, quite central to train station and cathedral. Supermarkets can be found nearby so quite...

I like it here. Though very minimal contact with owner after check in but feel that there are efforts to pleased guests. Room = nice and comfy Cleaniness = perfect Location = 2 thumbs up Shared bathroom = no problem Problem = a little noisy. Hearing dishes wash most of the time I would recommend this b&b

You might be very surprised to find such a nice place just in the city centre. Only 2 minutes tothe Cathedral. The rooms are tiny but good enough to have some decent sleep, The street nearby is rather busy though, people stroll around till late night, but it is not harmful at all.

I've been travelling around Italy for 15 days now and I must say that this is probably the best guesthouse/hostal I've encountered so far. Despite the 2 floors with no elevator in Casa Billi you will find comfortables beds and basic spacious rooms that won't make you feel like a mouse in a trap. Staff was friendly, professional and helpful.... More
