Other reviews mention that a car is necessary when staying at this "resort". That is very good advice - you must have a car. Castello Izzalini is not a resort, there are no resort features, and you will be charged 50 euro per person in the room as a resort fee! Anything you will want to do will require you to drive. Be prepared that the driving time will be much longer than you expect for the distance travelled. Orvieto is a key destination, it is only 36 km away, but it will take an hour to get there. Todi is 10 km (6 miles) from the resort, the roads are not great. Ten km commute took 20 minutes. We had a one bedroom unit. The apartment was quite nice and well stocked with items you would need to prepare meals, however the grocery store is a long commute. The thing that bothered us the most was the limit of 2 rolls of toilet paper - after that you are on your own!! Then there is the book with the price list of items in the unit - anything broken or disappeared and you will be charged. The views were really nice - not spectacular as they might have been if the location was indeed Todi. Parking is an issue, the locals are not exactly happy to have tourists near them - but they tolerate us. Todi was a terrific place to explore - we loved it. there are several good restaurants with beautiful views. We especially like the Pizza Caravor - go there. After giving it some thought, weighing the experience overall we would not go back. We will definitely return to central Italy, but will not stay at Izzalini. Unless you get a terrific rate that you cannot pass up, we suggest you look at other locations. Ciao!
