The positives were that this hotel was in the heart of Montepulciano - walking distance to practically everything within the mountains of Tuscany. Beyond that, it was horribly a let down.
The front desk woman, while lovely, was not help in trying to explain where their parking was. She gave me directions based off of Google maps. When I told her I didn't have Google Maps and tried to put the same info into Apple Maps, she just shrugged and I ended up not finding it at all.
The room itself was beyond dated, between the room you'd expect in a convent circa 1845 or boarding house. I knew going into it there would be no AC, so I mentally prepared for the stifling.
Also, as with many European Hotels, they have an elevator/lift only to have you walk another 6-8 stairs to get to your room.
Like I said, for one night, I survived, but I don't think I would have wanted to be here for longer than that.
