    glorious views
    cozy leisure room
    quiet gardens
    dirty balcony furniture

    I had a fantastic stay, enjoying the glorious views from the breakfast room and lounging in the quiet gardens. The hotel also had a cozy leisure room for reading and a chill spot for late-night chats. The only downside was a little dirt on the balcony furniture, which we could have asked to be cleaned if we'd stayed longer. Definitely try the gelato around the corner! 🍦

    Breathtaking Tuscan Sunsets Await

    Waking up to a stunning view of the Tuscany countryside from our balcony was unforgettable. The breakfast selection was exquisite, offering authentic local flavors and breathtaking views.

    The only downside was the occasional noise from the street below during the evening. But it didn't spoil our experience too much.

    spacious room
    antique decor
    amazing balcony view
    low water pressure

    I stayed in a Double or Twin Room with Square View. The room was spacious and well-equipped with antique decor, which added charm. The balcony view of the piazza was amazing, especially at night when the crowds thinned out. It was quiet for sleeping, which was a pleasant surprise given the central location. The bathroom was modern and clean, but the shower could use better water pressure. Overall, a lovely setup!

    beautiful views
    remote location
    cramped shower

    Beautiful views of the surrounding countryside!

    Getting to the hotel was a challenge due to its remote location, making it difficult to navigate with Google Maps. The lack of assistance for luggage was disappointing, as I had to manage everything alone. Additionally, I found the room's shower to be quite cramped, with limited space for toiletries, which made my stay less comfortable than I had hoped.
