This was an amazing place set in Alessandro's homestead. The location is in a rural setting although only 10 to 15 minutes away by bus ( +the 10 minute walk to the bus stop) -it is beautiful and quaint and has a vineyard right outside the room. As I Lay Dying as a bottle of wine from his vineyard on arrival - it was delicious! Alessandra was great to deal with - easy to communicate with - and he organised for his family members to pick us up and drop us off to the bus stop on check in and check out. The room was clean and as pictured. I would recommend renting a car, especially if you are travelling to Pisa, Siena and other parts of Tuscany. It was also helpful getting in and out of Florence - but to be fair, a bus would do just fine. The Wi-Fi works perfectly. We would definitely stay again! Alessandro - thanks again for a great stay!
