    Nice, clean small flat. Sweet little kitchen. Well stocked in plate ware etc. Fans in the bedroom were great as it was still quite warm. Responsive host and no problem checking in at all.

    The apartment is small, but just fine for 3 adults (or 4). Comfortable beds, serviceable bathrooms (small showers, but not too small), decently equipped kitchen. The setting can’t be beat, though. The host gave excellent instructions for accessing the place, even met us in the car park to make sure we got in safely. L’Antica Fonte, just around the corner, is fantastic for dinner. It was a great home base for exploring Tuscany.

    The apartment was located in a 13th century village which was very interesting! Pisa and Florence was a 1+ hour drive away. We were able to visit these scenic, tourist areas and then go back to the peaceful, quiet village. Loved it!

    Certaldo Alto is a beautiful place. We stayed two nights here and enjoyed this relaxed, layed back mid evil village. The apartment was great, one bathroom needed a good cleaning and the other bathroom needed the shower head replaced, barely any water flow. We also had no toilet paper, after contacting the property manager we found out she got married that day, so I get it! Congratulations!!! Overall, we had a great stay, enjoyed the apartment and loved the village. Took a cooking class while in the village (highly recommend Cucina Giusepina), had some of the best food ever and would certainly return!

    Nice appartment - as long you travel with not more than four people in a Fiat Cinquecento don´t like cooking and taking showers. Otherwise, with a family of six people (as we announced before), the apartment is definitely too small. You are not able to enter the village with a car of the size of a Minibus, measuring like a usual stationwagon but higher, to unload the luggage in front of the door, as it was said. So you find yourself in the situation to carry heavy family luggage of six people through the village after a long trip. At least the woman who handed over the keys was nice enough to take the luggage that fits in her small car for one ride. Unfortunately there wasn´t time for more. The apartment is brightly designed, there are two stunnig bedrooms and a sofabed immeadiately next to the entrance door, a narrow mini kitchenette and two small bathrooms. All is clean, but the kitchenette so small, that it is no fun to cook. The pots are old, the cutlery smelly there are no closets to put your groceries in other than in the fridge. The bathrooms are small and shower tiles need a good profound cleaning. Since the showers are simply separated with short curtains and there are no real shower trays the bathrooms are flooded each time one takes a shower.

    Wow what a lovely traditional apartment in the lovely town of Certaldo Alto. Views were spectacular from the bedroom windows. Fantastic location to explore Tuscany. Certaldo Alto is a wonderful little town with half a dozen restaurants, would recommend the pizza restaurant and Casa Tua, would go back.

    Enjoyed our stay in Casa Giglio, quite big enough for two couples. Quiet location with a good view from the bedroom windows.

    Lovely apartment in the old medieval town. Views of San Gimignano and Tuscan hills from the front door step. Great stay and great location.
