There is no better view of Siena than from the rooftop and kitchen terraces! Niccolo was a gracious host and this apartment exceeded our expectations, as the pictures do not do it justice. The bedrooms are comfortable with nearby bathrooms. The kitchen is fairly large, very well equipped and with enough room to accommodate our cooking class one night! Although not traditional in Italy, we missed having a microwave and American style coffee maker. The washing machine in the kitchen closet area was very handy. The location cannot be beat. We walked every day to all the sights in Siena including the Siena Cathedral, Piazza del Campo, Plazzo Pubblico, Torre del Mangia, Biblioteca Piccolomini, Siena National Gallery and many more within a 10 minute walk. In fact we could walk to almost every neighborhood (called Contrades) in Siena within 20 minutes! There is a steep climb up three flights of stairs to the apartment, but after a few trips it is simply good exercise and well worth it for the views. There is a very well stocked market only a couple of minutes walk for everything you need for food and drink on your own, additionally there are literally hundreds of restaurants within walking distance as well. We highly recommend this apartment if your travels take you to Siena.
