Apartment via San Carlo in Muralto-Locarno

Wir haben sehr kurzfristig buchen müssen, da uns eine andere Unterkunft abgesagt wurde. Obwohl wir nur eine Nacht bleiben wollten, wurden die Buchung möglich gemacht und wir durften spontan einchecken. Vielen Dank nochmal! Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und schön eingerichtet. Gut ausgestattet, mit Tiefgarage und einem großen Balkon. Sehr freundliche und unkomplizierte Kommunikation. Gute Lage. Immer wieder gerne! ☺️

Alles super

Great welcome. Well located and quiet. Secure parking meant we didn’t have to worry about the car. It was hot so we were apprehensive for the fans in each room. Very clean and had everything we needed. 10 minute walk to the lake and perfect swimming spot.

All good.

Gute Ausstattung, sehr sauber, viel Stauraum Grosse Zimmer Zentrale Lage Sehr nette Begrüssung und Verabschiedung vom Verwalter

Etwas ringhörig

The host was very responsive and walked us through all of the amenities in the apartment. There is underground parking included that was easy to use. Great location for exploring the area. Spacious living spaces. The host also met us at the end of our stay to check us out of the room.

There is no air conditioning but many fans and curtains to help keep the room cooler.

I stayed for almost 3 weeks and it was a perfect base for my travels all over Ticino. Just a few minutes walk down to the train station and right on one of the main bus lines (#1). It's also close to a few supermarkets (Minusio Piazza) as well as the Piazza Grande and main sights of Locarno. The apartment is clean, spacious and has good airflow and lots of windows. The balcony is perfect to relax after a long day walking around. As a solo female traveller, I felt safe in the neighborhood, building and apartment.The few times I did see neighbors, they were always friendly. Both Daniel and Mr M.were very responsive and friendly in their dealings with me. Everything was pretty straightforward so I didn't need much. I had a great time, and would recommend this accommodation, and I also hope to come back again sometime.

There was nothing I didn't like. My only challenge (and a small one at that) was I don't read German and initially wasn't sure of the settings on the washing machine 😀. Google translate helped me out fast with that! Again, not a problem with the apartment, it might just save you a few minutes if you're not familiar with German. I'm also sure that I could have asked for help if I had needed it.

What a great stay, in the middle of an old residential area of Muralto with stately old villas and hotels, and surrounded by palm trees. The apartment is located in a clean and spacious apartment building, with an elevator. You can park your car for free in the garage under the building. In Dutch we call this building a gallery flat (an apartment house where the front door opens onto an outside walkway). This outside walkway overlooks a large (overgrown) garden of a villa with palm trees and a stone gazebo. That is already a feast for the eyes. The apartment is the last on the corridor. What is not (yet) shown in the photos is that behind the front door there is a large square hall with mirrors, making the apartment very spacious. You can see immediately that everything is spotlessly clean! Everything is available in the kitchen, even a large freezer. Due to the special construction of the building, the apartment has 2 spacious triangular balconies, which are connected to each other. This is virtually impossible to capture on photo. The view from those balconies is phenomenal (not the lake, but on the city and surrounding mountains) and is located on a one-way street with palm trees. The apartment has large, thick towels, lots of mirrors, 3 fans with high stand, almost all windows have mosquito screens, 2 comfortable chairs with thick cushions on one balcony and a dining table with 4 chairs (and cushions) on the other balcony. We only missed outside light on the balconies. Contact with host Daniel went quickly and check-in is done by friendly Tino who can be reached via Whatsapp. In 10 minutes (downhill) you can reach the boulevard of Lake Maggiore and in 15 to 20 minutes (downhill) in the center of Locarno. But along the way you will come across so many photogenic houses, restaurants, shops and painted buildings that it will probably take you longer. Recommended is a visit to the Verzasca Valley with the beautiful Ponte dei Salti (18 km).
