Good communication with owner. Plenty of space for the four of us. Dinners on the terrace were marvelous as we looked out across the countryside. The only consideration would be to know that the house has no AC

Location is superb. 3min walk to town wall entrance. We visited many towns in Tuscany and Montepulciano was our favourite. The views from the balcony are better in real life. Wonderful stay.

The host of this property is organized and responsive - the best I’ve dealt with to date! But what really sets this property apart is the incredible views. We arrived at night, so imagine my jaw drop when I woke up and looked out the window! We sat outside as much as we could. The town of Montepulciano is a gem. Walking into town from the house was easy - hilly, but easy because we get stopping to appreciate the views. We visited churches, stores, and wineries. We shopped, and we ate! We didn’t have a car, so we took a guided tour one day of some Montalcino wineries, Pienza, and the Tuscan countryside. Otherwise, the train from Chiusi was how we got to and from the town. The house accommodated eight of us and was well equipped. Overall, we loved this experience!

Perfect

Perfect location! Easy walk to town. Plenty of room for large families. Easy to work with. Had to carry my wife out of there kicking and screaming cause she didn't want to leave!

We did an “immersion” trip to Montepulciano and it was a perfect location! More room than we needed and very comfortable. Erika was fabulous to deal with before during and after our trip. Lots of great day trips within an hour added to our adventure. Highly recommend!

Accolades: - Historic home is 15 minute walk to the center of town. - View - gorgeous - Good communication from host even though it appears she lives in Texas Opportunities: - No way to prevent neighbor from parking in driveway. We had to park in town because a neighbor took the space without asking permission. - entire house is IKEA. Beds, futons, chairs, tables, dishes, glasses, and on and on. A little decorating personality could go a long way to making this historic home inviting and warm. - very narrow spiral staircase — difficult to get luggage to bedrooms. Not suitable for young children or older family members. - no laundry detergent- guess housekeeping forgot to replenish as it’s included in the listing - no dishtowel to wash or dry pots and pans. Had to use bathroom hand towel. There was an old sponge under the kitchen sink but a fresh sponge should be included for each guest - they’re really cheap. - no soap in shower. We took the hand soap from the bathroom and moved it back and forth from the sink to the shower. The soap container had about one inch of soap in it for 4 nights - blankets. Turning the heat on is strictly forbidden but there were no blankets for the beds. We took covers off of futons to keep warm at night. - We got 1 bath towel and 1 hand towel per guest for a 4 night stay - beware prev guests wash and put away the dishes you will use - not everyone has the same cleanliness standards.

This property was in a great location with a fantastic view. It was also so nice to have a dedicated parking spot right out front. The communication with the property manager, Erika, was excellent.
