Found Principessa Pio on an Internet search of places in Ferrara. The photos looked great, but they frequently do, while the places often fail to live up to them. Not so in this case. The Pio has just a few rooms along with a restaurant in a recently renovated barn. The fit and finish are of a very high order with a minimal aesthetic throughout. Our room was spacious and relatively inexpensive. The restaurant is quite good and reasonable, and draws a number of people each evening. It is about a 20 minute bike ride from the station, in the northeast corner of Ferrara on a property where various fruits and vegetables are grown, the very ones you will have for breakfast or dinner. We were looking for a quiet, low intensity visit, and it was perfect for that. Bikes were also provided to get around town or to circumnavigate Ferrara's wall/parks. Grazie, Federico!
