Huurder: Hai K. (Rockville, MD, United States).

Beoordeling Huurder: 4/5.

Europe had severely cold weather this February and Italy was no exception. When I booked a villa through EasyReserve in Tuscany, the overall experience was great. They were responsive and when necessary, made a personal contact to remedy the situation. Due to the severe cold, the original villa I booked was not accessible because of icy road. EasyReserve rep called me personally after sending an email and asked whether I wanted to change the villa which I did.

After an overnight flight from the States and driving an hour after renting a car from the Florence airport, when we arrived at the Casa de Vignolo, the 12th century stone house was ice cold. The boiler was off and it felt like walking into a freezer. My husband and I wanted to get some nap after the long trip but it was impossible since the sheet felt like a sheet of ice. Later during our 8 days of stay, the boiler went off twice due to wind/or whatever other reasons so I don’t think it was intentional. The owners of the house were friendly and they tried to help in any way possible. When we tried to get some firewood, Francesco was kind enough to call the gas station and have the logs delivered to our place.

We did have a great time despite the cold weather. A word of advice – if you are staying in Casa de Vignolo, make sure you visit Arezzo which is the closest bit town with lots of history/sites and wonderful restaurants. Also Space Prada (Prada outlet) is in less than 10 miles from the place in Montevarchi which is practically next town.

Huurder: Wenquan Z. (Beijing, China).

Beoordeling Huurder: 4/5.

Nice spacious house, very conveniently located, with a nice pizziria next door and a supermarket across the street. The biggest problem was the communication with the owner, who lives in the same court in the adjacent building. She was very friendly but speaks absolutely no word of English or any other language than Italian, nor did she know anyone who spoke a little English. The internet didn't work and I couldn't figure it out by myself. The only TV in the living room didn't work either. The water heater was probably not big enough so that the water went cold after 2 people took shower. All these problems might be fixed but because of the language problem we had during the check-in, we didn't even bother to ask. The two fireplaces were very nice and helpful, and the owner kindly provided the wood free of charge. The gas for heating could be costly, as we paid in the end 260 Euros for 4 days. Overall a nice property with some small problems.

Huurder: Carole D. (Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada).

Beoordeling Huurder: 5/5.

Very nice owners. They went out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. It made all the difference!
We had a wonderful stay in January 2012. It was a little hard to find at first as it's a 5 minute walk from the main street. The owners speak French and Italian but very little English. That wasn't a problem for us. They were more than helpful with all of our needs. They went out of their way to help us with anything we needed. The villa is rustic, clean, comfortable beds. The kitchen was well equipped but could use things like a pairing knife, bread knife, cutting board, paper towels, those are a few things that I remember were missing. Otherwise, they supplied Olive oil, salt, pepper, etc. which was very nice. We did not use the grounds as it was cold outside. Over all, we would recommend this villa for the experience of meeting these wonderful owners and the tranquility it offers. The town of Arezzo has the nicest people!
