"The hotel itself was fine. The night manager - Marco - was wonderful. He is interested in Etruscan culture and directed me to some very interesting sites. My only complaint - the rooms face a square where motorcyclists park. It was noisy until late at night, and closing the window was not a great option - no AC!"

"When I arrived at the hotel that was booked and confirmed through Expedia, I was told that my reservation had not been booked and that the hotel was full. Luckily the hosts booked me another hotel so that I did not spend the night in my car!

"Upon our arrival we were greeted by the most amazing landscape views of the valley, and by our excellent host/owner Stefania. It was very obvious that she took great pride in her home and landscaping. Stefania was attentive to our requests and went out of her way to ensure that our group was comfortable and satisfied. We were a group of 12 and had more than ample space within in the home...the rooms were quite spacious and clean. The location of the home is perfect if you'd like to use the home...
