Fantastic place to stay to enjoy your time in Colle di Val d'Elsa.
Pros:

The room was a welcome resting place after walking the Via Francigena. It is located in a perfect spot close to restaurants and piazzas for people watching. The room was comfortable and the staff was super helpful. Enjoyed the breakfast which had everything a person could want to start the day.

Cons:

Nothing really.

Un posto in cui tornare
Pros:

La struttura è ben posizionata vicino alla piazza principale, appare in prima battuta old-style ma è solo apparenza: accoglienza ottima, camere ben dimensionate con letti comodi e un bagno di dimensioni generose e finestrato!!!
Il personale gentile e accogliente fin dal primo momento anche nella gestione di un ricovero biciclette dedicato, ottima anche la colazione sia con il dolce sia con il salato.
Da tornare!

Morgenmaden var rigtig god, mens værelse, aircondition og bruser ikke imponerede.
Pros:

Lækker morgenmad og den centrale placering

Cons:

Ineffektiv eller ikke virkende aircondition. Utæt bruserslange. Normal adgang lukker kl. 22, så der kræves særlig aftale hvis man kommer senere hjem efter en tur i byen.

Pros:

Die Betten sind bequem. Das Bad war auch in Ordnung. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Wir hatten einen schönen Blick auf die Altstadt. Die Tiefgarage war auch super.

Cons:

Im Kleiderschrank gab es eine defekte Schublade, so dass sich auch die anderen Schubladen nicht öffnen ließen. Das Zimmertürschloss war defekt. Zum Schließen der Türe musste man gleich abschließen.
