An absolutely fantastic find: this former trattoria (founded over 100 years ago by our host's grandfather) is located between Trieste and Basovizza, the bus stop is right outside. There is a view over the city and the sea from the parking lot. The rooms are very tastefully furnished, very well-maintained and equipped with a kettle for making tea or coffee, the breakfast room is cozy with a collection of old radios, handicrafts by the hostess, and a sofa. The outdoor area with trees, flowerpots, a Hollywood swing, and sun loungers invites you to linger, and you can also leaf through one of the many books about the area available in the breakfast room. The breakfast is plentiful, in addition to toast, scrambled eggs with bacon or boiled eggs, cold cuts and cheese, there is fresh fruit (grapes from their own garden), homemade jams by the hostess, savory pastries, and delicious cakes (cream slices! Apple strudel! Yogurt tarts!), homemade pickled gherkins, juice, yogurt, etc.; all lovingly prepared and served by the B&B's two operators, Francesco and Viviana. There are also wonderful conversations: Francesco has a comprehensive knowledge of the region's history and other topics. It was also very pleasant to have the option to wash and iron clothes, Viviana provided us with bus tickets (which are otherwise only available at tobacconists and not on the bus) and Francesco picked us up and dropped us off at the train station. All in all, it felt more like a stay with good friends. We really enjoyed our time there, a big thank you!
