This suite was a real find. It is directly above the Al Prato restaurant and just off the main walkway long Lake Como. It was a little noisy as people walked by on the walkway below, BUT that was on us! We loved having the windows open and they were sound-proof enough if close them and the shutters. We made coffee and warmed up leftovers, but didn't do more in the kitchen. It is miss a few important items if you were to really cook more than one dish towel, dish soap, and any spices etc. It is really fresh and new and was a perfect place to relax before adventuring out to see Varenna! We found it more crowded than expected for October, but the mornings and evenings were sweet! The crowds thin out and it is such a beautiful place.

Thse floor was dirty and our socks were filthy very quickly. The kettle was broken and we discovered that the first day. They replied to our message the second day to ask if it was still broken. They then committed to replacing it but never did. Bathroom had an empty pump soap dispenser. They declined filling it. On the plus side, it was cozy and charming. Just as pictured

The rental exceeded my expectations. The location was perfect and the apartment was clean. The location above a busy restaurant was part of the charm. Very comfortable beds and furniture. A few small changes could make the experience better. It’s fine the washer didn’t work but a note stating the a laundromat was less than 30 yards away would have been helpful. Basic supplies such as dishwater detergent and more than one roll of toilet paper would have been helpful.

Great apartment in the perfect location. Very short walk to waterfront, piazzas, and restaurants but still very quiet in the evenings and early mornings. Apartment was spacious and had everything we needed. We were comfortable with fans and windows open at night but it would be very warm in the summer. Varenna is a beautiful area!

We had ant infestation it was quite alarming and terrifying has they were everywhere in the bathroom and kitchen. No soap to wash hands just some packets of shampoo. Has kitchen with supplies but no soap to wash or seasonings. We were only given 1 roll of toilet paper and when we ask for more they told us no. Therefore we went to go buy toilet paper. When we came back they had brought the toilet paper. The only nice thing is that we were given early check in. There was a washer and dryer but the washer didn’t work.

Honeymoon

This place is great! It’s right in the center of town and close to everything in Varenna. It looks out into a beautiful piazza and you can also partly see the lake and mountains from the windows. There is also a shared outside area where you can see the lake a bit better. We would definitely go back!

We loved the location and the apartment. Only a couple of problems: the shower door was broken, and the bedroom closet smelled a little because there was a stained pillow in there. We still would recommend.

Apartment was well positioned and directions were excellent. Sadly the key safe didn’t work and we needed to wait for someone to come and fix it before we could get in. Overall the property was ok but some things were old and tired and information such as about the WiFi was out of date. With a refresh it could be great. It is worth noting that there is no air conditioning.
