Tosco's word

Both properties have the same Toscane Cachée rating (7.3), so the detail of the criteria decides it. La Casetta takes the lead on location (8.4, 5-6 minutes from the Spanish fortress) and on parking and Wi-Fi, while La casetta in piazza has two bedrooms, a equipped kitchen and a balcony, ideal for a family or small group, and is less than 700 m from the center, with the sea within walking distance. Guest reviews are nearly identical (9.6 from 22 reviews vs. 9.5 from 59), so it's up to you to choose based on your situation.

Tosco only cites facts from this head-to-head: ratings, criteria, prices, amenities. Text calculated once, checked by the code.
