Visitors often comment on the beautiful frescoes and intricate mosaics that adorn the church interior. The Crypt of St. Benedict is a highlight for many, offering a peaceful space for reflection.

    While the abbey receives high praise for its historical significance and beauty, some visitors note that the climb to reach it can be challenging, especially for those with mobility issues. Additionally, a few reviewers mention that more detailed information in English would enhance the experience for international visitors.
