Very good apartment, with nice welcoming people keeping it clean and provisioned. You need to be fit to make the stairs as it's at the top of the building but it's very secure and comfortable. If you're planning on making it up the towers and church domes of the area, you'll not mind stairs anyway. Lovely breakfast and very helpful people, Lucida and Rebecca, offering help with finding places and local amenities and services. It would be good to have a bigger fridge for full size water bottles and being British, we missed not having a small kettle in the room to make tea, but these are small quibbles really. Overall if you want a Tuscany base, especially if travelling by bike, bus or train, it would be hard to find a better location and place to stay.
