My stay could not have been better. The host was extremely helpful and had good advice about what to see and do in Aliano. The property was spotless, charming, and comfortable. I would gladly stay there again.

Welcoming and friendly check-in. Comfortable rooms. Easy parking. Host was delighted that we were their first ever guests from Taiwan.

It's not often one can stay in a property conspicuously mentioned in a culturally significant book, but "The American" (l'americano) is a character mentioned in Carlo Levi's masterpiece, "Christ Stopped at Eboli." The American was a native of Aliano who worked in the USA, returning with savings, and built this property in the 1930s. There's a remarkable restaurant in the building too. Great food. It's about 45 minutes to Craco, worth the trip. And the same to Pisticci Scalo to visit the Amaro Lucano museum.

Elena’s property was stellar! If I could give her 100 stars, I would! Elena was a wonderful host; she met us, told us where to park and took us to our apartment. Our room had two windows; one overlooked the quaint street, and the other a beautiful view of the mountains. The bed was very comfortable, and the apartment itself was a perfect size for my husband and me. Each morning, we went down one flight of stairs to the kitchen where Antonella was waiting to pamper us with coffee, cappuccino, cornetto, juice, and granola. Besides the Bed & Breakfast, Elena has a restaurant called Rupp Diun. All I can say is W.O.W! We told Elena our food preferences, (I am a vegetarian, for example), and she totally customized the meal that she prepared. Elena has a gift for making you feel like family. We ate at Rupp Diun multiple times because when the food is that good, why go anywhere else! It was fun to meet Elena's family and friends throughout our stay! Full disclosure: my grandmother was born in Colobraro in 1897, and I am on a mission to find out anything I can about my Italian roots. I probably would not have visited Colobraro if not for my grandmother, but what a shame that would have been. Elena and her friend Maria were extremely helpful in guiding me with my search. This beautiful, welcoming hill-top town with the most charming people should be on the bucket list of those that are looking to immerse themselves in Italian culture and history. I hope I am lucky enough to be able to make my way back to this charming city that is filled with townspeople that welcome you with enthusiasm and pride that leaves you with a longing to return.
