What a wonderful stay ! Limen was an absolute delight from start to finish . Paula was a wonderful hostess who obviously gains great pleasure in meeting and looking after her guests . The accommodation is stylishly retro. Breakfasts were substantial and served around a large table , resulting in a wonderful atmosphere , where everyone chatted and shared experiences . The location is perfect , with views of the Sassi . We couldn’t have asked for more . Matera and Paula will hold many fond memories for us . Thank you Paula .

The host Paola is just amazing! Her vibrant personality and welcoming nature really made us feel at home. Both my partner and I are vegan and she went out of her way to get us vegan croissants and focaccia for breakfast. Paola there is a reason every guest mentions you in their review, you are the best! The home is also really central it’s so easy to get to all of the main attractions, we also had our best night sleep here.

Only thing I would say is you can’t have much of a sleep in the morning as you will be woken up quite early by all the other guests having breakfast however this isn’t an issue if you’re planning to be up to start your day which most people on holiday are!

The property was lovely, comfortable and had a cool mid century modern vibe, with unique decor. Exceptional attention to detail, spotlessly clean. The Host, Paola, was wonderful… she went above and beyond, she was very helpful at check-in. She communicated before we arrived. Explained everything we should know where to park etc. and answered any questions we had. The location was perfect, there was free parking across the road… and the location was in great proximity to everything. Paola put out a beautiful breakfast each morning we stayed. Everything was served on lovely plates and silver cutlery… the food was delicious, fresh every morning from the bakery, focaccia, fresh bread was amazing, she put out tomatoes with olive oil, spices and fresh basil, fruit, beautiful cheeses, and assortment of croissant and pastries. (which were something I will not forget!!!) yogurt, cereal, jams and Nutella. She made espresso and Americanos for us, there were many juices offered. (There was also a large assortment of teas and instant coffees for use at anytime). It’s the extra details that really make the difference. I would highly recommend, it was a great experience from beginning to end!!!

Nothing…it was great!!! But be prepared to climb four stories of stairs… definitely makes for a great workout.

Beautiful room with a balcony offering a lovely view on the historic city. Paola made this stay unforgettable! Nevertheless , the rooms were also a real treat! We had a very tastfully decorated, modern, and superclean room with a great view over the mountains and sassi that let us dig into the holiday feeling right away. The breakfast was offering fresh savory as well as sweet dishes and was served in a common area where we could have fantastic chats with other guests. We followed all of Paola's cultural, shopping, and dining recommendations and were not left disappointed. All in all, we felt like home and wish Paola and Limen all the best! Grazie mille ♡

None

we had a very good stay here. very tastefully decorated. the room was spacious. there was a kettle and a fridge. lots of sockets. very good pillows. great bathroom. nice towels and bedding. nice shower gel. great air conditioning. location is great - a short walk to the center and free parking options. great communication with the host. would definitely stay here again.

the room was quite loud (noise from the street and from the hallway). the bed was very soft. a cabinet with drawers (for socks, etc) would be great. it is on the third floor, so not great for people with mobility issues.

The location was great. Every attraction was easy to be reached by foot.The room had a magnificent view from the city and a large bathtub.The common area had a beautiful touch of vibrant colours, vintage furniture and a positive vibe. The hostess was really nice and helpfull. She explained everything in detail making it easy for us and gave us a lot of suggestions regarding traditional food, restaurants and attractions. Highly recommended. Loved it 🤍

Lovely apartment in the Sasso Caveoso and Paola is a fantastic hostess. Great views of the Old Town and caves in the Parco della Murgia Materana across the Gorge opposite. Amazing breakfast, beautifully appointed apartment with retro design furniture, free parking available close by. Just be aware there is no lift and it is three floors up.

Nothing. We were forewarned by Paola to pack a light bag so the stairs were no problem.

Everything was absolutely Amazing. The host was very very kind, the place is very nicely decorated and give you the feeling of home. Breakfast was very good. The balcony has an amazing view.

The only minor issues were that the bed was not very comfortable and there is no parking empty reserved space waiting for you. For free parking you have to check around to find a space to park

We had an amazing stay at Limen Matera thanks to Paola and her kindness. The property is better then on the pictures and the mid century design furniture give a special touch of caracter. She is an amazing host, super kind and warm and gave us nice tips on matera. The view from the balcony is breathtaking so try to book the room with city view!

Nothing, all was perfect

The host was very friendly and very helpful. The room was comfortable and clean.

The common area was shared between 4 bedrooms, and I hadn't realised how many individual bedrooms were in the apartment. Our balcony was on the street side, whereas another one was overlooking the gorge, so not all rooms are equal. Although it wasn't a problem for us, you do have to climb a lot of stairs to get to the apartment, so if you have mobility issues, or heavy, Billy luggage, it might be difficult.
