Fodor's Review:

Twelve nuns run this convent, which is minutes from the Duomo. Rooms are spotlessly clean and simple; some of them have views of the cupola, and others look out onto a carefully tended garden where you are encouraged to relax. Several rooms have three and four beds, making them well suited for families. Curfew is at 11:30 PM. You can join mass every morning at 7:30. The nuns provide half or full pension for groups of 10 or more.
