The property's location is beautiful, as are the small apartments scattered around the main building. The biggest problem is the state of neglect and the lack of maintenance, especially of the roads, even the internal ones connecting the farmhouses and the restaurant. Our apartment was nice but dated, poorly maintained, and I wouldn't say clean. There was a lot of sloppiness, especially in the kitchenette and bathroom. For the prices asked, there are many properties that offer much more. With what you pay at La Casella, they should really be impeccable. Everything is a bit neglected and poorly maintained, the organization and the staff are kind but a bit improvised. Many beautiful descriptions on their website—forest baths, yoga, philosophy, nature—but in reality, there are so many flaws. Some things, like the spa, are very neglected and abandoned. Breakfast was good, but speaking of philosophy, we would have expected more homemade and genuine natural products. Ideal for dinners, which were good but not typical Umbrian. The cuisine was well-presented and elaborate, but "budget-friendly." The place is somewhere between abandoned and neglected. They're very kind and make you feel at home, but they're also very expensive for what they offer. For the price you pay, you can find truly amazing properties where the harmony with nature and the services offered are a dream. Everything here is a bit improvised; many of the descriptions are beautiful on the website, but in reality, they're all done without experience, attention, and care. Even walking along the paths around the abandoned structures, there's little care for the land. For what they offer, they should more than halve the prices... nothing has been done with true professionalism... everything needs to be redone and reorganized, not just the roads and apartments.
