Short stay in Sienna
absolutely fabulous place to stay. I would recommend having a car if you stay here, but it is not so far or difficult to get to form the city centre. Simple but beautiful old building with deep walls and high ceilings. Nice to have a washing machine and a drying line. Huge refridgerator! Everything we needed in the kitchen. I would love to have a whole week (or more!) to stay here. Pastoral setting, pretty country walking. Loved it.

Inserat stimme nicht mit dem Objekt überein
Durch Ihr Inserat war es uns nicht möglich zu erfahren welche Wohnung wir beziehen, es war von einem Balkon die Rede der jedoch nicht da war, es wurden drei Schlafzimmer angeboten es sind doch nur zwei vorhanden, wenn mann Waschmaschine und Geschirrspüler gemeinsam laufen lässt, fällt die Sicherung raus und beim Nachbar wird es auch dunkel. Das Internet funktionierte am Anfang gar nicht, beim Nachbar war der Router und durch die vielen Stromausfälle die wir verursacht haben hat sich der Router dann mal mit hochgefahren. Im Inserat wurde ein Pool, ein Privatpool und eine Sauna angeboten, es ist nur ein gemeinschafts Pool über die viel befahrenen Strasse vorhanden. Wir haben die Vermieterin auf die Fehlinformationen angesprochen, sie hat das schon öffter gehört und sie hat diese Informartionen nicht an FeWo-direkt gegeben und wundert sich dass solche Dinge aufgeführt werden.

Nog wat kinderziektes maar toch heerlijk
Een heel fijn appartement. Het zwembad was veel kleiner dan verwacht en moest gedeeld met meerdere appartementen. Als we er alleen waren was het toch heerlijk. Er waren nog wat kinderziektes in het huisje, maar Aurelia probeerde alles zo goed en snel mogelijk op te lossen. We hadden geen auto maar met de taxi konden we prima naar het centrum.

Aangenaam verblijf
Een aangename woning, ruime kamers, alles kan verduisterd worden in de kamers. We misten een airco en een terrasje om buiten te zitten maar dat wisten we vooraf. Goede ontvangst. Zwembad is aangenaam maar een beetje weinig plaats als alles vol zit. Kortom, goed verblijf.

Schöne Wohnung in guter Lage
Wir waren zwar nicht in der Villa sondern in der benachbarten Wohnung, diese ist aber für eine Gruppe von max 4 Personen sehr gut geeignet. Wunderbarer Blick auf Siena. Lage ist gut und ruhig, Fußweg ins Zentrum ca. 35 Minuten. Leider kein Freisitz direkt an der Wohnung, jedoch Nutzung des Gartens der Villa möglich. Sehr nette Gastgeber; gerne wieder.

Logement correct
Appartement bien équipé mais pas situé sur la propriété où se trouve la piscine et le jardin. Il faut traverser une petite route ainsi qu'un verger. Piscine minuscule (3.5 m x 6.5 m) pour accueillir le nombre de résidents si tous les logements sont occupés. A 5 minutes en voiture du centre de Sienne.

erholsame Zeit in der Toscana - gerne wieder!
schöne Wohnung, neu renoviert, toll gelegen - sehr ruhig - fantastischer Blick auf Siena - komplette Skyline vom WoZi und großen Schlafzi! 40 min Fußweg zum Stadtzentrum - angenehmer, als Parkplatz suchen und Auto bleibt an sicherem Ort zurück. sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber; WLAN immer erreichbar in guter qualität nice appartment, completely new done, placed very quiete, fantastic view of Duomo and Skyline of Siena, 40 min walk to Piazza del Campo - avoids hazzle of looking for parking and own car stays in secure place. WLAN all the time - and works, no Problem what so ever. will come again! ciao, Michael
