I stayed there 2 nights. Very good compromise between cost and quality. The staff was kind and The housekeeping service was good. The comfortable room had a very nice view on The charming rural landscape. I ate some very tasteful handmade cakes and focaccia at The breakfast buffet. I suggest to prepare also some fresh juice and fruit salad. The hotel had a swimming pool, located in a very nice position, and a large parking car is at disposal of The guests. For sure i'll book there on The next time.

Villa D’Assai is a three-star resort-style hotel located near the breathtaking nature reserve of Laghi Lungo e Ripasottile, where you will find placid lakes, murmuring rivers and endless stretches of farmland. It’s also very quiet. In fact for the three days that we were there we saw no more than four fellow guests. This was great because we practically had the large pool to ourselves. Dinner on our first night at the hotel’s Tempe restaurant was no different: only one other couple was there. The restaurant, which borders the pool, serves a small menu of local specialties, including delicious pasta dishes with Umbrian black truffles and freshwater crayfish. The wine list is decent but not well-stocked, so you may draw a couple of blanks before finding a wine on the menu that is actually available. Our room was nicely appointed. The furnishings have a YMCA hostel feel to them, and there is no bathtub (in our room anyway; we can’t say for the others). Only Italian channels are available on the 17” TV, but the minibar underneath is decently stocked. Given the surroundings you don’t expect to stay in your room for much, so the spartan style didn’t bother us. The bulky room key is attached to a thick chunky slab of clear plastic. I should say room keys, as there are three keys on the chain, one for the door, one to turn the power on, and one for the safe. Exploring the countryside: Colli sul Vellino, the village next to the hotel, is charming and quiet. Bordering Umbria, this location has the rolling greenness and hill towns you see everywhere in neighboring Tuscany, but without the tourists and fuss. The northern Lazio countryside has Tuscan-style villas, endless fields of sunflower, corn, olive and grape, terraced trattoria and ristorante overlooking scenic lakes and rivers, but none of the crowds. Mountain biking, hiking, or simply rambling in a rented car are great things to do here. An excursion worthy of your time is the Castata delle Marmore, a waterfall fed by the Vellino river that is 15 minutes away by car. After a rainy day the cascade is magnificent and worth the steep descent to the foot of the falls. Spoletto, a pretty hill town in Umbria, is one hour’s drive away, and the famous Assisi (where St. Francis’ famous church is) is another hour farther.
