Mario is a great host. He came to pick us up at the tram station. His wife baked a pie for us which was very thoughtful of her... His place is neat and has all the basic facilities one needs during a vacation. There is a supermarket close by and also Mario suggested us some local restaurants which served delicious food. However, the location of his apartment is a little far from the city centre. But there is a train station very close and the frequency of the trains is hourly so one must plan well ahead. Mario provides the details of the train timings as well. The neighbourhood is quiet and pretty scenic.. if you are looking to not stay in the city center but at a quite Tuscan scenic place then this is the best stop over.
