A decent aparment in beautiful surroundings

A nice place with a magnificent view of the surrounding Tuscan landscape and a character. Topped only with even more magnificent view from the bedroom inside :) The apartment had the necessary amenities (kitchenware, coffee machine). The owner was nice and helpful. The beds were quite comfortable and the swimming pool was nice. The place was pretty clean overall.

Even though we knew about it when making the reservation, we really did miss AC as it was very hot during the night. The provided cooling fans were practically not giving any airflow at all. Also (we knew about that too) the place was reachable only by ~15 minutes of driving on a dirt road. Very nice views, but the car was very dirty after each of these drives and it was a bit limiting (not the owner's fault of course!) The accommodation could use a bit more touch to the details - the gazebo in the yard was rusty and had spidernets all around, the hangers in the bathrooms were loose, some of the window or shutter holders were loose as well and were creating additional noise.

Smuk beliggenhed og hyggelige små lejligheder. Laura og hendes mand er meget venlige.

Der var så varmt at vi ikke kunne sove om eller opholde os i lejligheden om dagen. Der var blæsere, men det hjalp ikke ret meget.

U ovom smestaju smo boravili 10 dana, imali smo vremena da ostetimo i dozivimo sam smestaj, ljude i mesto gde smo. Lokacija za nas je neverovatna, prelep ambijent, okruzenje, mir koji nam je bio potreban. Imali smo auto pa smo isli gde god smo zeleli. Put jeste takav kakav je na komentarima ali nam to nije smestalo. Prelepa kuca na savrsenom mestu.

U samom smestajnom objektu definitivno fali bar samostojeca klima, kada smo dosli bilo je 40 stepeni a unutra, subjektivni osecaj da je bilo vise. Ko ne moze u letnjim danima da trpi vrucinu, ovde ce mu biti izazovno. Kuca nema mrezice na prozorima, tako da smo mi poneli samolepljive mrezice i postavili, koje smo kasnije odlepili, postoje bubice koje te jedu, gore su nego komarci. Vlasnica samog ambijenta Laura, nije darezljiva ni malo, bukv. je brojala kesice caja koje nam je dala i od prvog dana sve nam je bilo jasno, sve je super dok ne trazite nesto a ako trazite bilo sta, bice vam naplaceno. Posto smo boravili 10 dana trazili smo jednom promenu posteljine, trazila je novac naravno, naplatice vam svaku sitnicu. Mi to zovemo prodavanje za sitan novac. Mene bi bilo sramota. Sam smestajni obejakt je na 17 minuta od Asciana gde imate sve da kupite, da operete ves, jer na pocetku dok ne kupite, jednostavno se desi da vam zafali nesto. Fale osnovne namirnice u kuhinji, so, biber, ulje. Ali to kosta pa necete ni dobiti. Takav prelep smestaj i ambijent i mislim da joj niko ne bi dosao da nije na lokaciji gde jeste i da ostaje duze dana. Odaje super utisak ako ste tu dva tri dana i ne treba vam nista. Njen muz je super i javi se od srca. Konstantno insistiranje na nosenju kape za kupanje radi lakseg ciscenja bazena, opterecene ako dodjete sa decom. Jednostavno smo se osecali kao da nismo bili pozeljni i necemo se vise vratiti u ovaj smestajni objekat. Bili smo svuda i ljubazno smo docekani od raznih ljudi, koji te ugoste od srca, ovde to nije bio slucaj.
