Sauvage
Propriété sauvage au cœur de la Toscane.
MAIS... À l'intérieur, tout est vétuste, pas 2 tasses de la même taille et couleur, les lampes de chevet sont rafistolées avec du scotch, etc,etc... Je n'ai pas assez de place pour tout décrire. Nous sommes des vacanciers, pas des mendiants.
Aux propriétaires qui se plaignent du manque de réservations, investissez un minimum et les touristes reviendront . Mais l'argent, l'argent....

Leider nicht zu empfehlen
Die Vermieter sind außergewöhnlich hilfsbereit und freundlich. Ich kann das Häuschen trotzdem bucht empfehlen. Es ist sehr, sehr einfach ausgestattet und bietet praktisch keinen Komfort. Die Küchengeräte sollten teilweise erneuert werden, weil sie schon unappetitlich sind. Die Schränke riechen sehr unangenehm. Der angegebene Tennisplatz ist zwar faktisch vorhanden, praktisch aber nicht bespielbar. WLAN funktioniert nur im Aussenbereich, im Innenbereich funktioniert auch Mobilfunk nur zeitweise.
