Excellent location for exploring wineries in Valpolicella, located directly in Spada premises. Very modern, stylish apartment, fully equipped. Nice and quiet surroundings.

1 bed apt with kitchen as advertised. Enough space.

1. Black mould infested, couple cm worth around base of shower box. Ugh! I skipped showering in AM. Too gross to step in. 2. Strong chemical smell on bedding, towels and in the home possibly from "potpourri" or so called essential oils. Is it the 1950s and the wonders of chemistry? Does owner not realize chemical stink is unpleasant too many, especially those with smell sensitivities and allergies? In the middle of the country, by a vineyard and the "decorative" indoor plants are plastic??? Environmental sense, zero. Aesthetic sense, zero. I cannot sleep with my nose presses against a pillow that reeks of some noxious detergent smell. Perhaps the owners would consider fragrance free, or low fragrance detergent? 3. Last, despite location in countryside, parking is at extra cost. Really? What is offered is a spot behind a locked gate, down a ramp below ground level. Very inconvenient access and exit. Useless. The paid spot despite parking at the family owned vineyard beside, and a large entrance area. Specifically told NOT to park there. If one doesn't accept paying for the very inconvenient parking, one is told to park on the roadside. But it's a heavily trafficked country road with lots of gravel roadside. Not secure. In sum, could be a decent apt but for mould infested shower base (mould loves plastic — try installing a glass shower box), the chemical smells throughout, and the quite inconvenient parking. Parking should be included in the base price, especially in the country. But I still would not have parked in the inconvenient location provided. Last, the minor "local tax" is asked for in cash! So one has to go find loose change. More inconvenience. Just add the tax to the Booking price. Haven't used cash for years. Every bar, restau, supermarket, store, etc etc in Italy and through the EU has a debit machine, for cards or phone wallets. Join the 21st Century.
