Great location to visit Volterra. Lovely room, comfortable bed, very friendly staff, amazing pool, great selection for breakfast and for dinner. Lovely patio to eat dinner on. This place could be really amazing, needs grounds to be better taken care of....weeds everywhere and overgrown, driveway to place is full of ruts and potholes. An adventure getting there. Garbage area right in front in parking area, not a good first impression. Also, there is always a smell of horse manure and urine. they have horses you can ride but they seem to dispose of manure by putting it on the fields close to property in the olive grove. Flies are around because of this. There was no place to hang clothes in room. Air condtioner didn't work very well so had to have windows open and you got the smell of manure or noise as there was a party on premises with children running around wild. ( they were supposed to stay in annex area but were running around pool area)They did have a small complete kitchen in a cupboard which was nice but we didn't use. Water went out one morning but was fixed in about 15 minutes. This could be an amazing place if they had better management and a full time grounds keeper. It really is a shame,
