Borgo Portello

Very kind and helpful owner. The apartment is beautiful, it has all you could possibly need. The location is perfect, in the center but in a quiet location. Decorated with a lot of thought and love.

Lovely location, with good cafes, bars close by. Host was fabulous, even coming to let us in when we shut the door by mistake. Perfect for cycling everywhere.

cosy, central, brand new, kind people

It is the most sweet, IKEA style with Italian touch mini apartment, in which I have ever stayed. I couldn't believe that in this small area - only 24 sq.m. you can put everything one can need, literally everything, just name something and it is there. And it is so smart done, that you don't feel squeezed at all. Another big plus - dogs are accepted. It is very convenient because it is on the ground level but the entrance is not from the street but from the yard and it is amazingly quiet, despite the fact there is a bar in the building. You don't hear neither the sounds from the bar, nor from the neighboring apartments. The location was very convenient to us - close to the major sightseeing places and with a lot of coffee shops, bars and restaurants in the neighborhood.

The sofa bed is like the most sofa beds not very convenient. It is difficult with finding a parking place sometimes and it is only paid parking on the street for 1.10-1.20 Euro/h from 8AM-8PM.

Don't be fooled: the Portello area seems far from the city centre, but it is closer than it looks. And, if you get out of the apartment at certain hours of the day, you can breathe the University life all around before you can get immersed into the Padova historical atmosphere. So, let's talk about the apartment: honestly, the best room I've ever been to. Chiara and Francesco are amazing and nice hosts and they'll do anything to make you feel at home. Rooms have everything you need, nothing less, nothing more, and to me, that's a bonus. The house is inside a typical north Italian "casa a corte" and it is quiet, even with the pub next door.

The pictures you see don't make justice to how the space actually looks.

very comfortable flat in a great location (quite ens walking distance to centre)
