Customer Reviews Ascoli Piceno - Ostello de Longobardi

28 Jul 2012 Andrea, Switzerland
Everything was very ok, only the bed linen was not fabric but paper tissue. As it was very hot, it was no problem. We didn't need something to cover but in case we would have needed it would have been very uncomfortable!
I cancelled my reservatio IN PERSON at least two days before I was to stay there (I had reserved for May 1 but no buses run on holidays or Sundays, so I went on Saturday as a day trip only. If there is any charge other than the reservation fee, please reverse it.
Thank you,
Jane Walton

Don't forget the famous festival of Giostra della Quintana and its crowd of costumed characters that is celebrated the first of August each year.
