Siena - Other Links

Internet access

Thanks to its large student population, Siena has many "Internet points" (cybercafés without the caffč). The one I used during my stay was the Via di Cittą branch of:

Internet Train
The best deal, if you're an Internet junkie, is a card good for at least two hours of access. I got an hour's bonus with my two-hour card, and I could use the card at more than 100 other Internet Train locations in Italy.

Laundry

Siena has a number of self-service laundries, including one that's only a few meters away from the Piazza del Campo. For details, see the Anda Blu Laundromat pages of my Siena Photo Gallery.
