Our stay at L’Antica Conceria was outstanding! Our host Martino went above and beyond assisting us with planning our time in Matera, all while using Google translate as his English was limited. It worked beautifully! He also called and made a reservation for us at a restaurant in Matera, which was so thoughtful. He is such a kind and lovely person, he felt like a friend. And speaking of beautiful, the accommodations were beautiful in every way - tastefully decorated, comfortable, quiet, super clean, lovely view from the terrace just outside our room where we sat and enjoyed a cappuccino prepared by Martino. The breakfast was bountiful with many choices to make anyone happy. The location was perfect, outside the busy centre but just a ten minute walk through a quiet street and we were in Matera’s historical centre. Parking was also easy, Martino met us at the parking location and walked with us back to the guesthouse - maybe three minutes at most. If we ever return to Matera, we would absolutely stay with Martino again!
