Excellent Stay June 2019
This is a fantastic bed and breakfast close to the centre of Biella. The hosts are welcoming, friendly and very accommodating, The rooms are an excellent size with a further lounge area just for guests. Beautifully presented, spotlessly clean and comfortable with modern bathrooms. Breakfast was excellent and set overlooking the garden of the house. Secure parking on site.
Very nice place
We booked the place for one night, the stay was very plesent, and the place is very clean. Also the breakfast feels like home. The location is fairly good in bielle. Luka is a great host. Thank you very much.
Great Stay at a very nice place
We had a very hearty greating by our host. He (and she also) was very kindly. The room was very nice and clean. We had our breakfast outside in the sun. We have visit Biela alto, the historic city Candela and went with the bike to Oropa. We enjoyed our stay at B&B Belsito, it was lovely. Thanks again.
Hosts treat you like a guest rather than a paying customer
If I had to sum up my feelings about the stay in three words they would be: lack of interest. Being relatively closed and introverted people from the day of our arrival to the fifth and last night we didn't really ask for anything - not even for things we'd given for granted. A few examples could be: -Why the bathroom was never cleaned in 4 nights (they cared to do so the fifth night when other people arrived). As far as my personal experience goes it is common sense in Italy, Germany, England and a dozen other places to clean the guests' rooms (and bathrooms) each day for the entire duration of the stay. As a proof for this the loo was supplied with a small bin and it was never emptied; also some bathroom fitting emanated a sewer-like smell after the first night and it took about 1-2 days before it disappeared. -Why the wifi access code was not given to us. Actually I did ask about it, at least thrice. The first time the guy went like "yeah my what about it", and after expressing my will to use their internet I was told the password was easy, but it was actually never told me. I asked once more but we were heading out and thought they would care at least to leave me or give me some paper with the code written on it but nobody said a word and I left it at that. Speaking of this, I also stated in my review there was no wifi because despite the service is mentioned and actually exists, we were not allowed to use it. -We didn't ask for our towels to be changed though the ones we were given smelled like humid. Yes, it's my problem that I didn't ask, but it's also your problem as a host if you prepare the guests' room and don't even care to check if the towels smell decently. About this point I would also like to mention another guest mentioned in his review that the towels had a foul smell, early last December, so they weren't exactly unaware... We were never told how to get the towels changed. Usually the staff explains where to leave them. -How to tell them we were ready for breakfast, considering the common room where it's served is small and they don't stay there. The breakfast itself was regular, but the second morning we asked how to tell them we were awake and waiting and the reply was we could switch on the lights and they would come. We did it and still waited some 15 minutes. In case the hosts wonder why we gave up our breakfast on 3 days out of 5 it was partly because of the way it's organised. We are hikers and the days are really short in winter, waiting up to be served the breakfast is not an option we like to consider. Inherently to the problems listed above we also had other minor unpleasant experiences that I personally never had with any other hotel or b&b whatsoever. -The shower is somewhat tricky to use. Some morning I got up and tried to have a shower but the water would only run cold. I insisted and tried anything but I guess it's because of the house boiler was off or something. We were not explained how to use the shower or told anything about limitations on hot water whatsoever. -The television was pointless because most channels had poor signal. Not a problem though because it's all in italian. -Someday we went back to the room and outside there was their dog (which had previously been playful, cute and all that) which was totally nuts and kept barking at us aggressively (rigid tail, keeping its distance but also walking over to us slowly - I've worked at a kennel for several months and am a dog owner, I know dog behaviour). Were I the host and got a phone call like the one we did I'd have rushed home to prevent any possible trouble. Instead we were proposed to put the guy's voice on the cell speakers so that he could try to calm the dog. I won't comment on this, but in the end we walked by the property fence and took an alternative way to the room to stay out of the dog's way. -Every single time you want to leave you have to knock at their door and ask them to open the gate. Apart from feeling like in a castle I don't see this as a positive thing. I could continue, but in general it felt a lot like we were really (non paying) guests at their house rather than customers. From my experience with other structures, it's a somewhat expensive place given the location and the common bathroom. Though gentle and not intentionally careless, they show inexperience and lack of organisation. An example to this 'lack of organisation' thing is that some morning we left for a trip in the city, and randomly met the husband on the street about 20 minutes later. He came over to us and told us they had activated the house alarm but forgot to tell us. Needless to say, hadn't we met, we'd have got home and set off the thing, because we were actually about to go back to the room. If I had to mention one good thing it'd probably be the quiet atmosphere in the neighbourhood and the generally nice rooms (except for the wardrobe, somewhat smelly and covered in a weird dust, also has annoying doors that don't stay open and do a lot of noise). To sign off, I'd like to mention I know the hosts reply to all reviewers - I've read them. I have to say they have an attitude for excusing anything negative that is said about their B&B, and will likely try to provide reasons in order to justify their 'performance'. Even though some people may do inappropriate, false or mean reviews it is inconceivable for me that the managers cannot take any critic. I must also add I speak Italian but that I post reviews in English to provide a more 'foreigner-friendly' opinion.
Great family-run B&B
Newly open, family run B&B in a very quiet neighborhood. We had a great time mostly thanks to the welcoming hosts who went long way to make our stay enjoyable. Rooms are beautifully decorated and everything is nice and new. The breakfast was delicious with marmalade and home made cakes. I recommend wholeheartedly!
