Stayed here one night in July as we were booked in to have dinner at Dal Pescatore and I saw this B&B was recommended by reviewers of the restaurant.||||The B&B is located in a small one way street in the small town of Canetto sull'Oglio about a 7 to 10 minute drive from the restaurant which is in the village of Runate.||||The B&B is quite large and roomy. The reception area is also large as is the combined dining/kitchen area.|| ||Our very comfortably sized room was located on the first floor (19 steps), had a tiled floor and was beautifully decorated. The room was dominated by an antique king-sized bed (that was very comfortable) and stood high off the floor. There were 2 bedside tables, wall mounted beside lights, a couple of chairs, a lounge/day bed, table (that appeared to have been an old sewing machine table), a coat/pant stand and a standing lamp. There were some very colourful paintings around the walls. Glass Doors opened up onto a shared balcony/verandah. There was a fly screen on the doors and the room was air-conditioned.||||The bathroom was large. Shower only. Water pressure good. Small point in that there was no soap/shampoo holder in the shower.||||Both the room and bathroom were extremely clean.||||WIFI was free and worked well. There was also free secure car parking.||||Breakfast consisted of juice, home made cakes and jams, biscuits, some cheese, tea/coffee. We were grateful that Caterina had brought some gluten free biscuits but outside of the cakes, which looked tasty, and biscuits, there was limited selection.||||Caterina was a delightful, friendly, welcoming host who was extremely knowledgeable about the restaurant and the Santini family and very willing to do anything to make one's stay enjoyable.||||Part of that is offerring a chauffeur service to and from the restaurant for Euro40 a round trip. This may seem expensive but when one considers that she waits around until called by the restaurant to come and collect guests, which in our case was around midnight, we found it quite reasonable as it also allowed us to enjoy a few drinks.
