"3 star hotel only"

"Well, having travelled extensively for the past 13 years, this Hotel must be the coldest I have ever stayed in. It was December, but there was no heating on in the lobby area or the dining area so everyone had to wear coats or thick jumpers while eating their meals. The showers were not particularly hot either. The room temperature could only go up to 19 Degrees so by the time I left it finally felt warm enough. Don't think I will stay here again... Not in the winter anyhow.."

"Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was just right - some fresh fruit would be nice to have. B&B was clean and tidy. Good signage so place was reasonably easy to find."

"A very cozy and comfortable house with good amenities, situated on a square in an Italian village. It was wonderful to experience this. There are plenty of fun activities in the area, from nature to city sightseeing. Irene and Sara gave us a warm welcome and were ready with lots of tips on things to do, including where to shop, have coffee and eat."

"Beautiful, peaceful property great for families!"

"If you are looking for the perfect Tuscan experience, stay here! 6 of us stayed 2 months, with friends and family passing through. La Maesta being so amazing and feeling like home along with being in a small village, allowed for the feeling of living in Tuscany.Queen beds and a bathroom for each room made everyone comfortable. We cooked almost every night. In May we lit a fire at night and enjoyed the beautiful dining space while in June, we BBQ'd and ate outdoors. Watched a few movies in the theater room. Spent hours at the beautiful pool area.It is 1-1.5 hrs from all the towns you would like to visit. Train to Florence nearby made easy travel.Alessandra and Massimo were amazing and friendly. We loved them dearly by the time we left. Don't skip the Tuscan Feast! You will eat well! Be sure to read Alessandra's book (Amazon) "A Life in Tuscany" before you come. It adds to the history and enjoyment of this amazing property.Best vacation ever! Enjoy!"

"We spent five nights of our Italian vacation in Pergine Valdarno, a beautiful little community in Tuscany. We chose the "La Miccia" apartment in the basement of an old stone house because of its quiet location and the amenities of a fireplace and whirlpool. We were happy to pay a little more for that. The apartment is spacious and nicely furnished. Overall, you get a feel for authentic Tuscan life. Also the village is pretty nice and authentic. We received a lot of information about the apartment and the surrounding area in advance and felt well prepared. We were also personally greeted upon arrival and shown everything. Unfortunately, we have to point out one problem here: We quickly got the impression that using the fireplace was not really desired. For example, due to the response to our question about fire wood, which stated that it was probably too warm for the fireplace anyway (although the temperature was below 10 degrees Celsius at night), and also because we were not given contact information for the wood supplier despite assurances. The fireplace still showed signs of the previous tenants' unsuccessful attempts to use it. At first, we thought it wouldn't work because the wood was too damp. We tried several times and even bought dry wood ourselves. Despite all our efforts, we were unable to light a fire in the fireplace, presumably because the vent wasn't working properly (possibly because birds were nesting there), and the logs weren't really catching fire because there was hardly any airflow. As soon as the firelighters ran out, the logs just glowed. The entire apartment filled with smoke very quickly, and we had to take the time to air everything out. Carbon monoxide is also produced in such cases, which can be dangerous if you're not aware of it. We also pointed this out to the owner, Irene, and asked her to take action if necessary. Future tenants are advised not to use the fireplace if it isn't working properly. She also inspected the fireplace the next day while we were out, but in her opinion, there was no problem, and it hadn't been an issue in the last few months either. We can only confirm that there was definitely a problem with the fireplace during our stay. Overall, contact with Irene was always very reliable and prompt. Even during a personal meeting, she greeted us very openly and warmly and, over drinks, gave us some tips for planning the next few days. She also recommended a few places to visit and beautiful ..."

"Een heerlijk huis op de eerste verdieping, met een extra keuken op de begane grond. Koel en lekker ruim, maar let op de trappetjes! :-) Heerlijk terras, om na een dagje sightseeing heerlijk te genieten in de schaduw. Super rustige omgeving. Keuken basic, maar van alle gemakken voorzien. Een waterkoker zou handig zijn, net als een extra snijplank, maar als dat nu het enige is ... Superhuis!"
