The location is ideal after crossing the Cisa Pass—just far enough to feel like an accomplishment, with beer and pasta waiting at the finish line. The room was clean and comfortable, and the dinner was great: prosciutto, pasta, salad, and wine. The host had a bit of a Swiss-German vibe—not overly warm, but professional and helpful. She came through when it counted, including calling us a cab the next morning and making sure we had everything we needed.

Not the most welcoming energy at first, and the pub wasn’t open when we arrived—though she did eventually offer us drinks, which we appreciated. Just don’t expect a chatty B&B experience.

I had business near Fornovo and chose this small b&b in the mountains to relax in peace and quiet after work. The owners were very friendly and helpful and always there to meet the needs of their guests. Small but nice. The rooms are functionally furnished. The beds are comfortable. The bathroom is great. The pub had a large selection of drinks (several types of beer fresh from the tap). A simple meal was offered every evening. Local specialties were also offered. The breakfast was great, almost everything was homemade. I felt very comfortable in this family atmosphere. I would love to come back.

This is a marvellous place to stay while hiking along the Via Francigena. The facilities are new and beautifully designed and maintained. The owners are extremely welcoming and helpful. We had a lovely dinner in the downstairs bar in the evening and a great breakfast in the morning. The location is very beautiful, with wonderful views. Highly recommended.!

EVERYTHING! The rooms were lovely, super clean, comfortable and nice and warm. Our host provided laundry service for a modest fee. GREAT! The dinner was very nice and so was the breakfast! Right on the Via Francigena with beautiful views. We really enjoyed our stay at Le Spine!

We liked everything.

The ideal place to stay overnight on the Via Francigena between Cassio and the Cisa Pass. Completely renovated, super comfy beds, loving host, supper option, good breakfast. Warmly recommended!

Although it is on the path, it is in the middle of nowhere.

The rooms were immaculate and of a high standard of decoration. Excellent breakfast. Warmly welcomed by the owners too!

Offering Some local wine would help to keep the price down! Was a little expensive, with no other alternatives.

The property was conveniently located on the Via Francigena. Michaela and Giulio were friendly and helpful. The food was amazing offering homemade soup and preserves. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom well appointed, and the facilities modern and clean.

Nothing, everything was wonderful.

The host Mika is amazing, she is enthousiast and really thougtfull. We tried some of their nice beers with their recommondation. The views in the mountains are fabulous. Dinner was simple, but fine and adapted a bit upon our request. Again very thougtfull.

Some people complained about the Wifi, but we did not miss it.. in our room the Wifi was fine,but not so in the bar.

Perfectly placed on the Via Francigena. Fabulous views, so clean, lovely evening snacks and the best breakfast we’ve had in 3 months of walking. Thank you
