Staying in a castle!

Room was a bit hot during the night

Staying in medieval castle is an adventure on its own. New and clean apartment. Comfortable bed. Its really close to the center of the town and we really enjoyed morning coffee in the central cafe and an amazing food in one of local restaurants in the evening.

It was quite cold and humid in the apartment. This shouldn't be a problem when its warm outside. There was no soap and toilet paper in the apartment. Using dishwasher liquid instead of soap while showering was not so pleasant adventure:)

Beautiful and historic

+ very special location + very kind lessor

- no vacuum cleaner

No soap in bathroom, no kettle in the kitchen & some coffee for the coffee pot would be nice. The bed was a bit small.

Beautiful place at the top of the town. Lots of room and everything you need. Hosts are very helpful. Very good cycling and hiking.

Not a ton to do in the town but plenty to do nearby. Best as a home base.

Fantastic stay! It was an interesting and incredible experience to stay in a castle. Very friendly check in. Very accomodating. Would highly recommend

No complaints!

Sleeping in a castle is an unusual experience. The castle is large, old, atmospheric, designed by the famous Brunelleschi, and from the window you can see the castle courtyard and the defensive tower (and the whole area). Guided tours around the castle are organized on Sundays. The apartment is equipped with (almost) everything you need. The town of Vicopisano is surprisingly beautiful, old, and not very touristy. There are 2 bars and 4 restaurants in the town. We enjoyed our stay there.

No air conditioning! It is clearly described, but don't count on the thick castle walls to protect you from the summer heat. The apartment is facing south and gets hot during the summer day. The owner has equipped the apartment with fans that make the night bearable.
