We went to Orta for a family wedding which was in the town hall. This apartment was well located for everything however so noisy. Peaceful early mornings were non existent. Street cleaners and bottle collectors were very evident which I do not want when on holiday. Steep hill and lots of steps to get up to the apartment. Not suitable for children or those with mobility issues.
The apartment itself was large however needs some attention. Plug sockets hanging off, lights not working and very old facilities. Be aware NO air con.
We used the sofa bed aswell as the bedroom with only one fan in the whole apartment. Could not open windows due to large number of mosquitoes so did not sleep very well all week.
Great storage for clothing. Beds comfortable. Dishwasher. Iron/board, hairdryer. NO kettle.
Bathroom facilities ok but very tired, shower rail falling down.
Caretaker that met us when we arrived did not turn up to sort lights out, wouldn’t help us with a fan or kettle.
No where to buy or hire such items locally without transport.
We bought a hand fan from the market in Omegna which is a Thursday(2 hr battery life!)
Orta really is a beautiful place. The apartment was not my ideal place, located well but needs some TLC.
