Alberata Grande

Alberata Grande: Tuscany

The wooden beams that cut through the ceiling of Alberata Grande set the tone for the rest of the flat. They place you in the medieval architecture the city is famous for, and that sense of history is invaluable. The kitchen isn’t huge, but it’s perfectly good for simple meals and preparing a cocktail at aperitivo. There’s also the possibility of renting out one or two of the sister flats, found on the same landing. It’s not small in the first place, but between them, these three can hold a group of sixteen people.


Home truths:
*The flat is on the third floor of a building without a lift – get ready for some stairs
*When we tested the wi-fi, it wasn't especially strong or fast
*All of the windows are single-glazed, so you might hear some noise come from below
*There's no separation between the single bed on the mezzanine and the double below
*Unfortunately there's no dishwasher in the flat
