HISTORICAL NOTE:
The first floor of Palazzo Costarelli was built way back in 1810 by the brothers Don Martino and Don Vincenzo Costarelli (the "don" was an honorific title, not an ecclesiastical one). In 1831, Don Vincenzo Costarelli also built the second floor. The building maintained two elevations until the beginning of 1900, when the third and fourth floors were built by Vincenzo Costarelli: this Vincenzo Costarelli (who remained unmarried) was my uncle, as one of the 5 children of my great-grandfather Francesco married to Leonardina (the 4 other brothers were my grandfather Martino, Giuseppe, Salvatore and Antonino).
The B&B was built by me in the house where I was born, and where my parents Francesco and Elvira lived before me, and before that my grandparents Martino and Letizia.
