HOME SWEET HOME

La casa si trova in un piccolo villaggio, circondata dalle montagne. Comodo il giardino con tavolo, sedie e lettini. La signora Patrizia è stata molto disponibile.

Abbiamo soggiornato in 10 per un matrimonio. La casa è perfetta per un massimo di 6 persone, in di più i letti e gli spazi risultano congestionati, considerando che sono presenti solo 2 docce.

La ubicación de casa y la comodidad de la misma.

The location is nice, with mountain views and private little space outside. It’s in a tiny village with a free parking in the square. Kitchen is fully equipped with old but functional appliances. The heating system worked well apart from living area which was cooler than the rest of the house.

CLEAN: The house was not cleaned well (spider nets, flies, old tablecloths) and it’s full of old decorations which seems to be never cleaned. BATHROOM: There was no additional stock of toilet paper, we were in 8ppl, so it finished in 1 day. There are no dedicated toiletries, just leftovers. ROOMS: There is 1 master bedroom with private bathroom on 2nd floor, 1 single room with bathroom on 1st floor (there is also 1 single bed in corridor (!), but I wouldn’t even consider it) and 2 single beds above the living area with toilet on ground floor, so it’s fine for 3-5 ppl, but not for 8ppl as per the description on Booking (the table in kitchen is for 6ppl). LOCATION: You can’t park in front of the house, you must reach it on foot and the path is quite dangerously steep. It was full of snow and ice, nobody cleaned it, so it was easy to fall down and get injured.

Het huis op zich was leuk, met prachtig uitzicht op de vallei.

Afgaand op de informatie vermeld op de website zouden er 2 aparte gesloten tweepersoonskamers met elk een badkamer en 2 aparte gesloten eenpersoonskamers met elk een badkamer zijn, maar bij aankomst bleek er slechts 1 tweepersoonskamer met badkamer (op de 2de verdieping) en 1 gesloten eenspersoonskamer (op de 1ste verdieping) te zijn. We waren met 6 personen - waaronder 2 koppels. Dit betekent dat 1 koppel op de (open) mezzanine (boven de living) diende te slapen en een andere persoon op de overloop op de eerste verdieping. Zij die op de mezzanine sliepen moesten 's nachts de trap af door de living naar de leefruimte om naar het toilet te kunnen gaan. Bovendien was die zogenaamde badkamer op het gelijkvloers enkel uitgerust van een wastafel en een toilet, dus geen douche of bad. Bij aankomst was de keuken echt niet proper (vuil wasteil, vuile vaatdoeken en slecht 1 keukenhanddoek voorhanden!)

This is a beautifully restored property with amazing views over the valley and the mountains in the distance. It's not far from Milan and can be easily accessed by car. There are some nice restaurants in the village below, and the kitchen is well stocked if you want to cook yourself. We were a group skiing in Cervinia, so we loved the communal areas e.g., kitchen and sitting room in the evenings to relax. It's also very close to a number of ski spots like Chamois, Valtourneche and Cervinia. There's a little driving to each spot, but very doable. I highly recommend this property, especially for families and groups of friends. It was very well-priced and we all really enjoyed our stay.

The property is advertised as having 5 bedrooms, but it's really two self-contained bedrooms. The rest of the beds are in communal areas or areas that others must pass through e.g. large corridors. It's not a major deal for families or friends, but we had two couples in the group and one of them had to stay in the mezzanine above the living room which I'm sure wasn't as private as they would have liked. Overall, it didn't spoil the trip, but I think that it could be more transparent.

The view from the house was wonderful. The quietness of the place was comforting

The house structurte was very uncomfortable: the only bedroom for a couple is in the 3rd floor. The stairs to the 2nd and 3rd floor are too narrow and a bit dangerous. Entering the bedroom is risky with unlooked for step and bump in the head is almost unavoidable to persons who are above 1.75 m. The heating system is tuned to operate under 20 degrees. The house was sometimes too cold. The host never talked to us, just texted. She responded to all our questions, and we have no complaines, but she demonstrated indifferece to our enjoyment in our stay.
