We had a GREAT stay at this lovely Todi townhouse. The town is enchanting, the home is lovely and well-maintained, and Carlo is a fantastic host. Between Todi's hilly terrain and the stairs in the building, our legs got quite a workout (consider yourself warned if climbing is a problem for you) but, other than that, everything was easy. We loved the marble floors, the comfy bed, the spacious kitchen and dining area, and the tiny but charming balcony where we spent many a morning sipping coffee and admiring the view. We'll definitely be back!

My husband and I stayed at the apartment in mid November 2016. As you can see from the other reviews, this apartment is a wonderful place. Todi is a beautiful Medieval labyrinth and you feel as though you are living inside a fairy tale. The apartment is located on two floors. Below are 2 bedrooms (1 queen, 1 single), a full bath, as well as an amazing room filled with Carlo's family antique furniture and paintings. Upstairs is a another room which can be used as a bedroom, a living room, dining room, kitchen, and half bath. The 3rd floor also has an amazing balcony facing south overlooking the hills of Umbria. The view actually brought tears to my eyes. From there, you can see sunrise and sunset. The apartment is clean, comfortable, the beds are comfortable, the towels are plentiful and plush, the kitchen is charming and utilitarian, but most importantly, it is actually a home with interesting art and books. For us, the best part of renting the apartment was Carlo. Carlo is a talented photographer and his work hangs in the apartment. He is also a wonderful host. He keeps a book with all of his suggestions for restaurants, coffee, shops, and outings. He has travel books for use, and many maps for your use. Todi is centrally located to many other towns. With Carlo's help we could suggest an itinerary of Assisi one day, a second day to Civita Bagnorigio and Orvieto, and a third day to Bagnava, Spello and Montefalco (this direction has amazing rural landscapes of olive groves and vineyards). Carlo also suggested a cooking class at the School of Italian Language and Culture in Todi. You can contact them directly and they will make arrangements. The class was in a family's home in Todi, and it was a highlight of our trip. Umbria is amazing, Todi is amazing and the apartment is amazing. I have used VRBO and similar sites for many years, and I can give this apartment my highest recommendation. Thank you Carlo. We hope we can host you when you come to NY !

We stayed in this apartment in Todi for 1 week. Carlo was very helpful and went out of his way to help us. The apartment is well equipped and in an excellent location. Todi is such a beautiful town and is so close to other great attractions in Umbria. The views from the balcony were stunning. We had our breakfast and evening meals out there whenever possible. Although we are not exactly young anymore we managed the stairs and the steep climb from the car park quite well. Thoroughly recommended.

What a wonderful stay my husband and I had in Todi! Todi is a perfect town to use as a base to explore southern Umbria. This region has so much to offer and is less crowded than Tuscany. We could not have been more happy with our rental. Communication with Carlo prior to our arrival was prompt and helpful. Carlo met us when we arrived, assisted with our luggage, and answered all of our questions. Carlo is truly interested in ensuring a memorable visit to his home region and offered many suggestions on things to do and see. Carlo is so proud of his town of Todi and he is a great ambassador for Umbria! His family home was spotless and had everything we needed for our stay. Oh, how I wish I could pack up and take home the incredible view from our balcony! We spent many hours taking in the lovely hills of Umbria and the tiled roofs of the city from this treasured spot...often with a nice glass (or two) of Italian wine! My only concern would be for guests with limited mobility. My husband and I are in our sixties and the hike thru the streets and up to the townhouse was exhilarating, but not a walk we wanted to take several times a day. Travelers looking for a REAL Italian experience cannot go wrong by staying at Carlo's townhouse!

We have sadly just finished a 4 night stay in this most idyllic of small hilltop towns in a wonderful apartment, hosted by Carlo. As arranged, Carlo was waiting to escort us through the labyrinth of narrow lanes to the apartment, helped us carry our cases up the steep stairs and took plenty of time showing us over and explaining how everything worked. He gave excellent recommendations to restaurants, gelataria, wine shops, etc, plus to nearby villages. Nothing was too much trouble for him and a more delightful host would be hard to find.

The apartment itself was fabulous. It was very spacious, spotlessly clean and tidy and the views from nearly every window were breathtaking, whether over the countryside, the ancient tiled roofs of the town or the nearby churches. The walls were decorated with an interesting and eclectic selection of paintings and other artwork, there were plenty of travel books and the information folder was comprehensive and helpful.

We loved everything about our stay and found Todi to be very centrally located for day trips to lots of places (the mummie museum in Ferentillo and Roman ruins at Carsulae, plus the small town of Bevagna were favourites. We tried to use minor, country roads mostly and thus travelled through some amazingly beautiful scenery).

Overall, this was one of the best apartments in the most spectacular of towns we've ever stayed at, enhanced by the help of Carlo.
