This simple Italian-run place feels like a small oasis of calm at the north end of town. Rooms are outstanding value for the price and those with air-con are a little larger. The bathrooms come with, wait for it, bidets. It's the best lower-midrange choice in the town itself, although it's quite a walk from the centre.
