Hi Eric,
we are reading again and again your review and we could not understand its meaning. We remember you, in a rainy day and with the backpack on your shoulders.. and we were really happy that you choose Locanda for your staying and we offered you also a beer as a relief after you long walk!
Now we discover your disappointment. The price was agreed with you at you arrival at Locanda. We showed you the room and even if that was a double room, because we do not have any single room at our hotel, we offered you a discount and you agreed with the accommodation and the price. However, just to be clear with you, none of us forced you to stay at Locanda if the prices were too high. Especially because the prices for the room and the restaurant were explained and shown everywhere.
It's absolutely not true that the single rooms were occupied by members of the family etc. As we do not have single room anyway. Please double check on our website: http://www.locandaalleve.it/le-nostre-camere/
The Locanda is family-run, so that's why you had noticed that members of the staff were relatives, and a part from us there is only Alessia, our restaurant manager.
Regarding the place Borgata Allevè is a typical mountain place, with activities such as mountain bike during the summertime and excursions with snow-rackets in winter and so on.
What's the reason to criticize the location? You arrived during a stormy night, and we are sure you did not enjoy the place also because of the weather.
Enjoy your walking holidays Eric, and please next time don't criticize the price and everything that you previously agreed with the host.
Our honest suggestion is to do not stop at the first place you find along the way... otherwise, what kind of holiday is it?
Kind Regards,
Locanda Allevè
