Il Giglio Bianco has a soothing white-and-cream decor, wrought-iron beds and a wraparound balcony that gives each of the three rooms a portion of terrace. It's a little off the main drag, so it's nice and quiet, and the friendly brother owners will help with taking your luggage up the stairs. Breakfast is particularly good.
