We loved our stay at All'Ombra di San Damiano. Everything was excellent, from start to finish.
I booked it late at night for next day, as a one-night escape from Rome. Giulio sent me an email early the next morning, to confirm our arrival time that day, and to check if he should keep his dog, Lillo, away during our stay (which was not necessary, as it is a lovely dog). After I asked him for the best way to reach the B&B, he offered to pick us up at the train station, which was both wonderful.
The house itself is very well taken care of, very pretty, spacious, clean, and makes you want to stay longer. It is located 5-to-7 minutes away by car from the train station, and about the same distance from the historic town (it is best reached by car or taxi). I found this to be a plus as it is away from the crowds, and an ideal place to retreat.
You can reach the historic center from the house by walking between 30 to 45 minutes uphill. It is a truly beautiful walk that gives you views over Assisi's olive fields. It is great for hikers that are used to the mountain, but might be challenging for older people (my 60-something parents made it the first day, but to my disappointment, declined when I suggested we did it again the next morning). Giulio helped us out and gave us a ride, but you can also call a taxi to take you uphill, which should be around 10 EUR.
Thanks Giulio, we are definitely planing to come back!!!
