As expected from the other reviews, we prepared ourselves with earplugs, especially for the rooms on the street side, definite for lightsleepers like us. Since it is a busy street, most nights you can expect the noise to go past midnight, if you have a choice, get to the inside bedroom first! Other than that this place is perfect for everything you could ask for. Plenty of restaurants around, great gelato place downstairs!! Close to the train station which is a plus when you want to get around Tuscany for day trips. So close to the market and the city sightseeing bus stop. Cant ask for more.
