Al Mercato B&B

Hotellin sijainti erinomainen ja terassi josta myös näkymät.

Aamupalalla ei ollut tarjolla leipää vaikka oli leivänpäällisiä mm. kinkkua ja juustoa. Avaimen saaminen hieman takkuili. Pysäköiminen melko tyyristä (25€) vaikka hotellusta sai alennuslipun.

This is a great budget accommodation just off the Piazza del Campo. The hostess Anisa was very welcoming and gave plenty of information about Siena. I had a single room on the ground floor. I was a bit concerned the noise from the street would be a problem, but the window had excellent soundproofing and the AC was surprisingly comfortable. I usually switch the AC off and sleep with the window open due to noise and temperature issues, but the AC did not bother me in the least and I could sleep well with the AC on and the window closed. The room featured a good size bed (I would call it small queen size) that could probably accommodate a couple, a desk, a wardrobe and a mini-fridge. The bathroom was reasonably sized. The shower had plenty of hot water and a decent water pressure. The breakfast was copious. The best part was the fresh cornettos, warm straight out of the oven.

While the surfaces were generally squeaky clean and well maintained, the grout (both the flour grout and especially the shower grout), the shower tray and the toilet bowl could all really do with a good scrub. The shower grout was discoloured by mildew, and the floor grout - which probably had once been a light grey or white originally - was now more black than grey. This ruined an otherwise very good impression. I recommend investing an hour or two of elbow grease, some simple baking soda, vinegar and a good brush to remedy the situation.

Not a big selection for breakfast.i would have given a higher score but on the last day we had no fresh towels and the room was not made up.We left early next day but had to use wet towels.
