They had no air. The heat was on . I got it turned off but it was humid . No screens on windows could not open them . No elevator so you had to drag your bags up the stairs. Overall it was not the charming place . In the pics looked renovated but it was not . Even the first floor was up stairs . Not good at all !!

It’s very unique to stay in a historic place built in 1200. The room was super quiet thanks to high ceilings and thick walls (you can still hear some noise). Those stairs are well worn but such a nice place to look around. We had a roof-top balcony but it was shared with two other rooms. Only once did we have company but the view and the Siena nights were wonderful. The breakfast had a very good selection for a continental breakfast and was quite tasty. However those mattresses on the beds were saggy and very worn. They definitely need to be replaced. Sadly we had a very poor sleep!

We stayed on a recommendation of a family member, and we're so glad we did. Check-in was easy, directions were clear, breakfast was provided, and the place was beautiful! When we left early the next morning, the attendant called us a taxi and had the dining room prepare us a breakfast to go, with pastries, yogurt, and bottled water. Extremely accommodating! Can't wait to return!

Beautiful hotel with lovely character. Stayed in a deluxe room with a lovely terrace & great views. All the staff from reception to those in the breakfast room were very helpful. In particular the young gentleman who checked me in, apologies I didn't get his name, was extremely friendly & welcoming.

Well located lovely hidden gem in Siena. Room was big and cool, breakfast was good with fresh pastries and assortment of meats and cheese. The staff were exceptional and really helpful. We have a lovely stay here. The only negative I would say was that the pillows were hard and uncomfy.

Very beautiful historic hotel in downtown Siena. It does not have elevators so you have to carry your luggage up, but does have a lift for handicap. The air conditioning was struggling to work however.

"Chiostro" has that special charm that an 18th century nun`s cloister can transmit. Unfortunately, the rooms, a bit basic in their furnishings but otherwise good-sized and comfortable, are in need of maintenance. In our case, we would have to turn the aircon off every night, as its noise made it impossible to sleep - luckily, if the room was kept at maximum cool during the whole day, the room would remain cool enough for the night`s sleep. The hand shower would not fit, and could thus not stay fixed, into its socket - hand held showering only! We can not really recommend "Chiostro".
