Reviews for Locanda il Fornello
Review 1:Unfortunately it was very wet when we visited and we were rather cold, however lovely staff kindly gave us some additional heaters. Plenty of extra quilts available too.
Review 2:Ideal location as we were visiting friends in San salvatore but extremely handy for trips to Lucca, montecarlo, and train trips from nearby pescia to Florence etc. The two bedroom apartment was perfect for us and well equipped. Surrounded by vineyards, pleasure to wake up and look out of bedroom window each morning.
Review 3:It was really hot and there was no a/c. Just a fan which didn't help much at night.
Review 4:The staff was trying to solve the problem with the fan for the night. They were trying to help but the temperatures were just too hot without an a/c.
Review 5:It was extremely hot and there was no air conditioning. The room fans were ciculatobg hot air so we could not sleep at night.
Review 6:Excellent breakfast, lovely surroundings and pool, very friendly and helpful staff
Review 7:Mosquitos and no air conditioning
Review 8:The b&b is beautiful. A typical Italian feel to it , homely and welcoming ... Kids loved the pool. It was A much needed part of each day as weather was 38 degrees +. !!!!!
Review 9:It was unbearably hot and difficult to sleep, we were given a fan which was helpful but didn't really improve things. A small fridge would have been great to keep a cool drink..

Review 19:Maybe a bit off the beaten track, but depends on what you are looking for... Driving time to various attractions.
