This was the nicest apartment we have rented in Europe or the USA in the years we have used HomeAway/VRBO. Roomy, beautifully decorated & well stocked. Near S. Caterina, the apartment was close to the Duomo & the Campo as well as the main shopping /strolling streets. Via Caterina is steep & narrow as are most in Siena. We were there on Halloween so there was some revelry until early morning but generally the road noise was minimal. And again during our month in Italy, the size of the crowds amazes us. Had occasional rain that drove some indoors but most just opened umbrellas and continued. Loved the town - 3 nights not enough. We would love to stay in this apartment upon a return to Siena.

Our visit to Siena was greatly enhanced by this apartment. It was large, airy, and very comfortable. The windows opened widely, and you could view the beautiful streets of Siena. It was full of charm - not the bland, IKEA apartments that are so often available to travelers. This apartment had character, and fit the city in which it was found. Also appreciated having a washing machine at our disposal. The neighborhood was great - good restaurants around every corner. Oh, make sure you try the house wine everywhere - it's wonderful! Yes, the streets are hilly, but it adds to the character of the city. The apartment is located close to all of the sights you'd like to see - you just have to go up and down to get to them! Note: if you have luggage, I'd recommend taking a bus or taxi to the house - as the ups and downs seem much exaggerated when you're pulling a suitcase and sporting a backpack! Finally, the hosts were very accommodating and helpful. They even left some wonderful local cookies for us to try. Highly recommend this apartment and Siena!

A great apartment hosted by a wonderful host!

Appartement très bien situé dans le centre de Sienne

La cosa migliore dell'appartamento è sicuramente la posizione, relativamente vicina (800m) al parcheggio gratuito del Campino, ed estremamente centrata nella città, vicina sia a Piazza del Campo che al Duomo. Ottima anche la qualità della struttura e la disponibilità dei proprietari

El único problema son las escaleras para subir con la maleta. Por lo demás el apartamento es muy grande y completo y el recibimiento con unas pastas muy agradable. Hemos disfrutado mucho de Siena en un lugar muy céntrico.

Highly recommended. We stayed for a week, and felt very comfortable in this homey, spacious, well equipped apt. right next to Santa Caterina's home and church (she is an important saint from the middle ages). Good location between major cathedrals, bus lines, and centro. It was useful to have a desk and washing machine also. The host even left us a box of delicious, locally-made cookies.

Marzia was very welcoming and provided us with a map and details relevant to our stay in Siena. Close to everything but the apartment is at the bottom of two steep hills. We had everything we needed to be comfortable. Use a taxi when arriving as it is some distance from the station.

Perfect location for the city, supermarket and restaurants nearby. Parking not easy though. The apartment was very well equipped, many thanks to Marzia

This is a corner apartment with 5 beautiful windows, all of which open onto jaw-droppingly beautiful streets. The view of the Basilica of San Domenico is even more dramatic in person than in this picture. Marzia and Renzo are excellent hosts. The apartment was very clean and well appointed, with lots of channels of Italian TV, several sizes of moka pot coffee makers, comfortable seating in the living room area. The sofa is actually a comfortable futon, which was good to sleep on. Very affordable place given where it is located. We are so excited to return to Siena, our favorite spot in Italy. And when we do, we will stay here again for sure.

We were a party of four adults arriving in Siena (by bus from Rome) on New Year's Eve 2014 late in the afternoon. It was a short walk from the main bus stop to the apartment and our host met us in person to acquaint us with the apartment. She made us feel quite "at home" and gave us a phone number to call if we had any questions during our stay. Realizing this was a holiday, we walked to Conad's, a main grocery store located near to the bus station, to get groceries (try the shelled peanuts if you get a chance - we found them to be a yummy snack!). After enjoying a light dinner at home, we very much enjoyed a brisk late night walk (5 minutes) to the Campo (town center where the Palio horse race takes place each summer) to partake of the family-friendly New Year's Eve festivities. There was fun for all ages, complete with live music and it was a pleasure to be able to walk to/from the event! We spent six nights in Siena and could have easily spent more. This apartment is in a perfect location - close to shopping, cafes, the Duomo and Campo. We enjoyed learning about the Contrada neighborhoods (this apartment is in the Goose Contrada and we held our heads just a little higher once we learned that Goose is leading the competition with a total of 66 wins thus far!). We found the shopkeeper artisans and restaurant staff to be welcoming and open to sharing stories about Siena. It was a great privilege to attend Sunday Mass at the Duomo; traveling during Christmastime provided us the opportunity to hear Christmas hymns and see the festive Siena lights. We thoroughly enjoyed this peaceful, clean apartment and loved hearing church bells and seeing neighborhood views from the windows. The pull-out bed worked well in the living room and all 4 of us found the beds/space to be quite comfortable. The kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed to make meals and we enjoyed spending time together at the cozy kitchen table and, also, relaxing in the living room. The wifi worked perfectly and we appreciated the opportunity to wash laundry and dry clothes inside on the rack. At the end of our stay, we called a cab to drive us to the train station as we were headed to Bologna and Venice by train. The cab was reliable and inexpensive at only 12.5 Euros for the 4 of us and our luggage. Many, many thanks to Marzia, our host...for her warm hospitality. We enjoyed a memorable stay in Siena and hope to be back one day to stay for a longer period of time!

"The apartment was in a perfect location, just minutes from the Duomo and the Piazza del Campo. It was very large, clean and was extremely well-equipped. The owner speaks wonderful English and made sure that we were quite comfortable. We would definetly stay there again."

"The owner was very hospitable on arrival.It was a very nice apartment and excellent value for money. It was also in an excellent location, central to the city and sights."

"The apartment is very well located, a stone's throw away from all the sights. The rooms are very cheerful and everything you need to make yourself at home can be found there. Because of its location in the heart of the historical part de Siena, there is a level of noise which you must get used to. If you have a car, parking will be a problem as there is no parking available for the tenants. However, public parking at a cost can be found in walking distance. Finally, the owners are very friendly and helped make our stay enjoyable without at all being intrusive."

"We loved our stay in Siena and the sunny appartment. It is right in the center yet quiet and with a nice view. The supermarket is close by not to mention Il Campo. Very good value for the money!!! And the owner is both nice and helpful leaving a contactnumber in case of questions etc."

"Great central location with excellent facilities and very comfortable overall. The host met us on arrival and provided useful information for our stay and suggestions on places of interest to visit. Siena is a very beautiful place to visit and we loved being there."

"Absolutely wonderful place, great hospitality of owners"

"Absolutely perfect location, very easy walking distance to everything in the city including the bus station. The apartment was exactly as advertised and very clean. We are a family of two adults and two young children. The children slept on the fold-out couch, which was just right for them, but may not be comfortable for an adult."

"This was a perfect base to explore Siena and the surrounding area of Tuscany. It is under a 5 minute walk to the Campo (town center) in a beautiful, safe, traffic restricted neighborhood. The main bus staion at Piazza Gramsci is about a five minute walk away as well. Grocery stores, markets and restaurants are everywhere. The owners were a wonderful asset to us during our month long stay. The apartment itelf is clean and very spacious with a well stocked kitchen, a recently renovated bathroom and a washing machine. There is a fold out couch and a cot as well for extra guests. As far as noise, it is a peaceful neighbourhood. The only real sounds you ever hear are church bells. This is a perfect place to stay in Siena. We can't wait to come back."
