Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Exceptional Comment: We just returned from Tuscany & Umbria, our second trip using a Karen Brown book exclusively to select places to stay. If you prefer a "typical" tourist hotel, this book is not for you. In our experience, Karen Brown recommendations match their descriptions in the book. As a result we have enjoyed amazing and charming places which have enhanced our travel and enjoyment; places we might not have found through our own research. Customer Rating: Summary: disappointed Comment: I was disappointed with this purchase. I felt that the book was more about where to stay than things to do and see. It was more of an advertisement for places along with a request to mention the author's name in order to get a discount. It felt more like an effort to promote the book than to offer quality information about how to visit Tuscany. We did go to Tuscany, and had a wonderful trip. We left the book at home because it provided nothing of interest to us. We ended up using other books. If you are just looking for a place to stay and do not have access to the internet or other books, you might find it useful, otherwise, my advice is to skip it. Customer Rating: Summary: Great information! Comment: This book listed many interesting places to stay. Several of them were also recommended by friends who have travelled to Italy. More Reviews
