Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Molly K. 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### An Italian idyll No one in my family wanted to leave this house when our vacation was over. This fascinating, beautifully appointed old home was filled with charm, comfort & interest. From the lovely outdoor patio to the clawfoot bathtub, we completely enjoyed every aspect. The entrance from the narrow cobblestone alleyway added to its charm. Parking was a convenient short distance and a small grocer with essentials was around the corner. I wish I could stay there all summer. ##### Molly K.
