Appartamento Francesca

Wir empfehlen gerade in der Hauptsaison den Strand Punta Gro. Dort ist es nicht so überfüllt und das Ufer ist sehr lange sehr flach. Ideal für Kinder.

Die Wohnung ist in einer Wohnungsanlage, in der sonst fast nur Italiener wohnen. Die Italiener waren über die Touristinnen sehr genervt. Am Pool war es am schlimmsten. Es war richtig feindselig, so dass wir nur 1 mal dort waren. Es wohnen wirklich eigenartige Leute dort. Zum Beispiel hat einer sein Gewehr auf der Terrasse gereinigt. Die Wohnung ist sehr weit entfernt von alllem. Man geht 10 Minuten zum Bus und dort muss man sehr lange warten, da die Bus nur alle 20 Minuten fahren. Wir hatten die Wohnung gebucht, da sie groß ist und über 2 Stockwerke verfügt. 2 Tage bevor die Frist für die Stornieung ablief, hat man uns plötzlich gesegt, dass wir nur die untere Hälfte der Wohnung nutzen dürfen, da wir nur zu dritten seien. Wir hatten die Wohnung aber extra so gebucht. Zu dieser Zeit waren auch alle anderen Wohnung ausgebucht. So mussten wir das akzeptieren.

The location was good, shops and bus stops to nearby cities and to Sirmione centre were close. Kitchen was well-equipped, the dining area was nice, also the big terrace. It was also calm and quiet, there was no noise during the night. There are two bathrooms available.

Firstly, the check in process is unnecessarily complicated with lots of rules incorporated. You have to sign a contract and pay a deposit, which I have never experienced earlier despite being a frequent traveller. You have to pay 100 EUR if you do not collect rubbish according to the instructions... Upon arrival, we had to collect the keys from a box, and there were two videos showing how to get to the apartment, which led us through a spooky storage area instead of going through the garden. We arrived in the evening and we had to turn on electricity, hot water etc., it would have been nice of the hosts to turn these on before arrival, especially that we had to look for instructions in a book in the dark apartment. These instructions were not up-to-date, for example the user manual for the boiler was for another type, so we had to figure it out for ourselves. The apartment was not very clean, we found some hairs and stains in the bathroom, also some of the bedding had a couple of questionable spots. It was stated that there are two beds and a sofa bed upstairs, but instead of the sofa bed there were two uncomfortable foldaway beds which did not have proper sheets. Also, they gave 3 rolls of toilet paper for 6 people for 4 days. There is no Wifi in the apartment. It is stated here, but personally I thought that there are no accommodation without Internet anymore, so I did not look for this information specifically. I will in the future though :)

Great location, lovely apartment. 2 couples and plenty of space, main supermarket is a 10 min walk with lots of restaurants and cafe etc within walking distance as were buses and taxis. Pool is lovely only down side is the pool hats bit not a big deal at all! Would recommend
