Attico Luce B&B0

Attico Luce B&B, Osimo, Le Marche. Oct. 21st, 2022 ‘Temporarily parked in front of the farmacia, next to the street where our B&B was located and dropped off our luggage. We were able to check in early at the B&B and saw our bags each hoisted up five flights of stairs by winch. ‘Doing our homework before arriving, we found a delightful large parking lot, to drop the car, with funicular that carries you up to street level, Funicolare "Tiramisù"-Stazione Colombo. A short walk brought us to Attico Luce B&B. Our windows looked out at niches in the opposite building which were occupied by nesting pigeons, who had blithely built nests on top of the anti-pigeon spikes. We had a very nice room and bath with an abundant breakfast with cheery hosts (mother and daughter) and guests! Walking through town, we noted the exposed pavements and empty graves under plexiglassed portions of pavement , under the loggia in front of the town hall. Then we walked along old Roman walls, and descended to the Roman Fonte Magna, still gushing water and attracting mosquitos. Then we ascended, cutting through a vegetable market inside the covered area leading to grottos, which we did not have time to return to see. Visited Romanesque/Gothic Cathedral of San Leopardo with unusual facade and portal (sculpted in 1191 by Master Filipo) framed by snakes with coiling tails and a rose window was framed with grotesques. Inside church, a chapel, first on right with primitive looking carved crucified Christ in a fabric skirt, with 4 nails (a common Templar symbol). This altar was reproduced in this year’s “covo” done cunningly in woven straw, for the Festa del Covo, held in August. We bought delicious components for dinner at Orto Pronto (vegetable and rice dishes), and at a great meat and cheese shop, then ate our purchases in the B & B’s grand breakfast room that evening. There is much more to see and do in Osimo.

great central location, good size room very comfortable. owner very helpful with dinner reservation and early breakfast.

very small point but the flat is on top floor so several staircases needed! there does appear to be a hoist for luggage though.

Our host was excellent and very accommodating. The location was perfect with easy access to the city center. The breakfast was also wonderful.

Perfect first stop on the C2C. Antonella was very helpful and reserved me a nearby restaurant. Breakfast good. Room comfortable and warm with a large bathroom and all nice and clean.

amazing place near all the tourist attractions

The hostess was wonderful. The location was ideal - her family was warm and welcoming.

Beautiful home above the main town plaza. Comfortable room.

The bathroom was not cleaned very well.
