Pensione

  • Pensiones - origin  Italy but becoming Europe wide.
  • This describes a family bed and breakfast or small hotel not thought to be particularly luxurious, so can be used derogatively to describe a hovel but need not be so.  Many such small establishments provide exemplary temporary or holiday accommodation.
