Excellent location, close to every important spot. Warm welcome Several self-catering facilities

Impossible to use the WIFI. Poor choice of TV channels for a french-speaking, and even for an English-speaking tourist (several german-speaking channels) No breakfast service proper

Be very careful about the description on the Internet (breakfast, extra tariffs). Nevertheless, the final price is very attractive.

Superbe localisation à 3 Km de Sienne. Accueil charmant et efficace. Résider dans la campagne toscane si proche après avoir visité la ville fortifiée est très agréable.

L'accès Internet pourrait être amélioré, le signal WIFI est un peu faible. Il est nécessaire de vérifier les informations données par Google Maps, qui sont erronées.

Se faire bien expliquer le système de parkings, car ils sont souvent pleins. Se munir de pièces de monnaie, les lecteurs de cartes bancaires étant souvent capricieux.

“Wonderful Apartment Near Siena”

10 Read the complete review

Location: About 1.5 miles from Siena. I was advised by bus near by but we took a cab the few times we went into the city for about $20 USD. Apartment: Great apartment - just the right size with small kitchenette, sofa sleeper and 1 bedroom with washer and dryer. Very CLEAN: Daily cleaning which is unusual for an apartment. Staff: They went out of their way to assist us in many ways! English is somewhat limited - but was not an issue - I should have learned more Italian!

None

It would be helpful to have instructions on how to use the washer & dryer - a diagram or English if possible. We truly loved our stay and would recommend this to anyone wanting to stay outside of the city.

La visite de Siena est le point d'orgue de notre séjour, le seul problème est de trouver une place de stationnement. Les villages situés dans un rayon de 60 Km sont à visiter ainsi que la région du Chianti et en particulier le vignoble de Léo Ferré situé à Castellina in Chianti, très bon accueil. Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour.

“We enjoyed a lovely week in the Orcio apartment at this property. The owner, Guiseppe, was there to meet us when we arrived and was very helpful all week. Very pleasant apartment which suited our needs perfectly. Great location for touring this part ”

9.4 Read the complete review

It is a great location for touring the local area. Beautiful area and lovely warm weather. Very peaceful location for relaxing and just reading a book with some local delicacies! Guiseppe is a really helpful host, who speaks some English, and was always around if there was a problem. Nice clean apartment with fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven and hob and washing machine. Very spacious bathroom and shower. Good facilities all round!

Lack of local amenities (apart from a pizzeria) within walking distance. Need to use the car for other shopping.

Make sure you visit all the local sites such as Siena, San Gimignano (make sure you go up the Grande Torre for some fantastic views), Monteriggione, Volterra, the Chianti area, Pienza and Val d'Orcia. Siena was very busy whereas the other towns were more relaxing places to visit. There are some lovely hilltop towns worth stopping at. Make sure you try and buy Guiseppe's own wine - it was excellent! Try turning left out of the apartments and head to Montalbuccio which is about 3 miles away. It's a lovely walk or a good workout on the bike going up and down the hills and there are a couple of restaurants when you get there. Guiseppe made no charge for our bike hire. If you turn right there is a pizzeria, Re Nudo, 5 minutes walk up the road, which is fine for a meal. Make sure you have cash (rather than a card) for paying the extras (wine, cleaning, tourist tax etc)at the end of your stay.

“Wonderful stay at good located place with a great host.”

9 Read the complete review

location is great, very close to Siena and by car Florence and of course the Chianti vineyards are easily reached. This also goes for designer outlets. The owner/host Giuseppe is great and provided us with homemade olive oil, red and white wine as well as vin santo. Where Tuscany is, besides many beautiful other things, known also for having a lot of mosquitoes, we had little trouble with them. During daytime in the shadow they bite occasionally and during dusk (very short period) you should better stay inside.

Just in front of the apartment is a road, where cars drive by sometimes rather fast For families with little children this could be a bother.

During the stay the temperature rose close to 40 degrees Celsius. The air conditioning could not bring that down to a (for Dutch people) better temperature. A (small) pool for children (we didn’t miss it) could be a plus too. Ask Giuseppe for tips and for instance where to park your car, he knows his way around! When you are here when the Palio is celebrated, don’t miss out on it!

Being out in the countryside- on a vineyard. Easy access for biking.

Though smoking is very prevelent in Italy, there are those of us who do not smoke. Our apt was non smoking. Outside, just below our bedroom window were table and chairs that one could sit and smoke. I had to close the window while people smoked. Moving table and chairs away from windows would help.

“A Charming Holiday Villa outside of Siena”

10 Read the complete review

We loved our stay at Siena 2114. A gorgeous Italian villa, situated in lovely countryside outside of Siena. The rooms were very clean and spacious, Giuseppe was a wonderful host. Although his English is as good as my Italian, we managed! he was so friendly and helpful always with a lovely smile on his face. Felt very much the Italian culture and lifestyle which is what we wanted. I would thoroughly recommend this villa. In fact would love to return to beautiful Siena, and would certainly stay here again.

None. Only minor that Giuseppe does not speak fluent English, but then I don't speak any Italian. Trust me you will be able to communicate, I even typed on his computer some questions and then he was able to translate through his computer. All part of the experience in living and enjoying another culture. A wonderful adventure. My Italian phrase book was my Bible.

The accommodation is not within walking distance to the town of Siena, however the bus works well and we enjoyed the experience of catching the local bus into the town. Also taxis are an option also - pretty reasonable. I would thoroughly recommend attending a cooking class at the Cooking School of Siena ((Scuola di Cucina di lella), it was a wonderful. We had a private lesson (three of us)a memorable experience sharing her food and culture. We also thorughly enjoyed the myTour Private Minivan tours (maximum 8 people) to San Gimignano, Chianti & Castles Tour and Brunello Wine tour. We find these tours more intimate than travelling in big bus groups - you inrteract more with the other people and the tour guide. It was fabulous. Also spend plenty of time exploring the beautiful medieval town of Siena - we loved it. We stayed 9 nights at Siena 2114 and could easily have stayed longer. There is plenty to do and enjoy.

Our host Giuseppe was extremely helpful and accommodating. The apartments are very clean and well appointed in a lovely location. There is a fairly regular bus service close to the place so it is easy to get around if you don't have a vehicle. Lovely and quiet whilst being close to Siena.

The description on the website gave the impression there were two bedrooms in each of the apartments we hired but in fact there was only one bedroom in each. This was quite a problem for us as we were a group of adults traveling with two teenagers. I ended up being stuck in one tiny room with my two children which is not what I planned on for my holiday that I paid good money for. The description should be much more explicit about the floor plan and not only refer to the number of beds.This may be a confusion between Australian and European ways of describing accommodation but I recommend it is addressed when dealing with the Australian market.

Beautiful and rustic with just the right modern amenities (kitchen, bath) and a comfy bed! Waking up in Siena was heavenly!

Bathroom a little small and the shower leaked as the half round door did not shut/seal well.

You can walk to Siena in less than one hour and it is gorgeous countryside to see. Best though to ask Giuseppe about the local bus and/or drive and park just outside of the wall. SO much to explore in Siena. Be sure to go to the market and dine on one of the small lanes of the Piazza. Try to find some Ribolitta -- the famous italian soup with bread, beans, veggies. AMAZING! Shopping for groceries is close to the house also and is a lot of fun since the products are wide ranging and reasonable. In season, the local produce is awesome.
