Charming little room right in the heart of the hilltop town of San Miniato. The checkin was super easy and the room was very spacious and easy to get to right at ground level with a separate side entrance right by the front-desk checkin. Would definitely stay again.

San Miniato is hard to get to, especially if you're not a driver, but it's absolutely worth the difficulty. The property is exceedingly well managed and the room is especially spacious and comfortable.

Disliked: Room comfort
Desapontamento
O hall de entrada estava ocupado por um bazar de quinquilharias. Quando chegamos, não havia ninguém para nos receber, tive que procurar pelo responsável na cafetaria da praça. A água do chuveiro não estava suficientemente quente. O café da manhã na cafeteria era fraquíssimo, composto apenas de 01 suco, 01 bebida quente e 01 pão. Não tinha nenhuma fruta disponível e caso eu desejasse tomar mais de 01 bebida quente, deveria pagar por isso. Fiquei bastante desapontada com o estabelecimento.
