Two nights in San Gimignano walking. The Via Francigena
Pros:

We had a fantastic room, particularly for the price. We went for a valley view and the view was brilliant with two aspects. Bathroom was also very good and bed very comfortable. Breakfast was good with lots of it and fresh croissants regularly added. Location is perfect for San Gimignano and if you are walking the Via Francigena

Cons:

Nothing, it was a great stay.

κακή σχέση ποιότητας τιμής
Pros:

Η τοποθεσία του καταλύματος είναι ιδανική. Είναι στο κέντρο του Σαν Τζιμινιάνο και ολα τα αξιοθέατα και τα εστιατόρια απέχουν 2-5 λεπτά με τα πόδια. Το προσωπικό ήταν πολύ εξυπηρετικό και η 24ωρη ρεσεψιόν βοήθησε πολύ!

Cons:

Σε καμία περίπτωση δεν υπάρχει καλή σχέση ποιότητας-τιμής. Το δωμάτιο είχε παλιά έπιπλα που έδιναν μια άσχημη μυρωδιά στον χώρο. Δεν υπήρχαν κανονικά κλινοσκεπάσματα αλλά μια κουβέρτα η οποία δεν φαινόταν ιδιαίτερα καθαρή. Το πάτωμα ήταν παλιό πλακάκι. Στο μπάνιο δεν έκλεινε η πόρτα της ντουζιέρας και το καζανάκι δεν πατιόταν. Γενικά δεν ήταν δωμάτιο που άξιζε 120-140€ τη βραδιά σε άλλα ξενοδοχεία με αυτή τη τιμή οι παροχές είναι πολύ καλύτερες. Απογοητευτήκαμε πολύ καθώς οι φωτογραφίες είναι παραπλανητικές.
