- Silvia (7/5): - Posizione comodissima, nella zona centrale,.vicino alla piazza a locali e ristoranti.
La proprietaria ci ha dato indicazioni rigaurdo agli spostamenti e ci ha consigliato di attivare la Ticino Card, che nei giorni di permanenza nell'appartamento.da diritto ad utilizzare mezzi gratis e hai altri sconti per diverse attività .
Appartamento silenzioso e carino. Tutto ok

- Wolfgang (8/5): Die zentrale und ruhige Lage der Wohnung hat uns sehr gefallen. - Die zentrale Lage mit Blick auf die Dächer von Locarno und die Berge. Das Küchenbesteck und die Anzahl der Gläser sind für 2 Personen ausgelegt, insgesamt etwas knapp bemessen.

- Carlo (10/5): Eccellente. - Posizione, appartamento, pulizia. Nulla.
- Andrea (10/5): -
- Esther (8/5): - Die tolle Lage. Kontakt zu Vermieterin sehr unkompliziert. Die Einrichtung ist etwas minimalistisch... Es hat alles, aber auch nur genau das, was es muss. Qualität der Dinge (Stühle, Föhn,...) war gering. Und leider fiel der Strom zwei mal aus, an einem Morgen hatten wir dadurch kein warmes Wasser.

- Anita (10/5): Perfekter Aufenthalt! - Die Unterkunft ist eine Mischung von alt und modern und insgesamt sehr sauber. In der Küche ist alles vorhanden… auch eine Kaffeemaschine mit Pads und Tee. Die Zentrale Lage ist perfekt… Mitten in der Altstadt! Wir waren das 2.Mal in dieser Unterkunft und wir können sie nur empfehlen.
- Franco (10/5): Nel cuore di Locarno con cuore - Siamo ritornati con grande piacere e soddisfazione. Siamo stati accolti con molta cordialità e il check-in è stato efficiente come sempre.
Struttura ben tenuta, pulita e piacevole. Cè tutto il necessario e la posizione è molto tranquilla. La presenza del parcheggio è comodissima. -
- Miriam (9/5): - tolle Lage, Appartement in einem historischen Haus mit schönem Innenhof. die Ausstattung war z.T. antik - sehr schönes Ambiente.
- Bernadette (8/5): War schön und gemütlich - einfach aber sauber! Schöne Aussicht! Schnell im Zentrum und sehr ruhig Dürfte einwenig mehr Geschirr und Besteck haben!
- Schmid (10/5): Zentral, ruhig, schön und zweckmässig eingerichtetes Studio - Ich war 1 Woche da und habe es sehr genossen. Super Lage, zentral aber doch ruhig. Schönes Appartement-Studio mit allem, was es braucht, zweckmässig und sauber. Sehr freundliches Check-In.
- Maël (9/5): Un magnifique écrin au coeur de Locarno - Un studio plein de charme au cœur de la citta vecchia de Locarno (30 secondes à pieds de la Piazza Grande)! Le plafond de la chambre, tout comme la cour intérieure, lui donne un cachet unique. Une petite cuisine permet de passer plusieurs jours sans souci.

- Blondel (10/5): Un beau séjour en amoureux - L'appartement est très bien situé au cœur de la ville. Son isolation permet d être au calme malgré le bruit du festival du film. Et le décor du plafond fait rêver. Peu de matériel dans le cuisine il n y a vraiment que le stricte minimum.
- Andrea (10/5): - Die Lage und auch die Einrichtung. Uns hat das Appartement sehr gut gefallen, auch wenn es sicher eher etwas spartanisch eingerichtet ist. Der Kontakt war nett und alles hat super geklappt. Parkplatz für Auto (Fr. 15) und Fahrräder (gratis) sind vorhanden. Gerne wieder. Es hat nur einen Badezimmer-Spiegel in der Wohnung.
- Leo (1/5): Rude Staff, Horrible Environment and old clothes in drawers! - Nothing - best part of this stay was leaving we cannot recommend to anyone. We waited 40mins in a heatwave to get checked in - we had a long journey to get there and our phones do not work in Switzerland so we needed free WiFi.
Owner insisted we should book in online and it was Booking.com to blame. The instructions clear stated online check-in was optional.
We had to ask a shop keeper nearby to contact the owner as there was no reception- just a locked shop. The shop keeper was not surprised! Whilst waiting we met a couple who had left luggage and they allowed us access out of the 35 degrees sunshine to wait for the owner. These previous guests explained the owner is very unreliable - we had already assumed that!
The owner was very rude and unhelpful. The physical condition of the apartment left lots to be desired - it’s horrible despite the pictures - like a budget hostel.
The headboard on the bed is all peeling and quite disgusting.
We found old clothes in a drawer; the kitchen facilities were very poor and we chose to eat out rather than use them. The air conditioning is very loud and noise from the covered internal courtyard was annoying but it’s basically businesses who have open doors onto this area so not something unusual or really their fault it’s just a poor holiday accommodation setup.
Ruined this part of the holiday.
- Nayane (8/5): Very good - We really appreciated staying at this place, at first we got a room that was a bit old and had a funny smell, I think they need to redecorate this room to be appropriate to host people. However, I spoke with the host and she changed our room to a much more modern and clean one and it make our stay 100% times better. I really enjoyed the location and how easy it was to come and go, we have no complaints of our second room, it was fantastic and really clean. I don't think the smaller older room is fit to receive guests. But host was very attentive and changed us really promptly.
- Cheryl (8/5): Good location - Great location within walking distance of the railway station, Piazza Grande and the lake front. The apartment in the old town in a genuine Ticino townhouse, which otherwise houses private apartments. It was comfortable and the kitchen reasonable well equipped, but with windows only opening out onto a central courtyard the room was a bit dark.
- Diana (10/5): Loved our stay in this very comfortable apartment in the beautiful historic town centre! - Loved that the apartment was in the old town just off the main square, so great for exploring the town but also close to walk to the lake front. There is a supermarket close by in the square. The apartment was very spacious, very comfortable beds and the kitchen had everything necessary. The host was very helpful and went out of her to help us find the parking when we got lost which we so appreciated.
- Robyn (9/5): Superb -
- Ferien (10/5): Exceptional - Location is top.Close to everything. Lake
.train shopping. Parking in the old town is difficult to find.
- Isha (9/5): Superb -
- Ingrida (4/5): Not a one bedroom, not the location pictured - The location was good, close to the main square. (Note that there are two separate properties advertised in this listing. The address given to you on Booking when you book is not the address of the apartment nor of the shop where you check in.)
When I requested that someone come over and close the bathroom window for me (you have to climb up to do so and I was afraid of falling) because a construction worker was standing next to it they came over quickly.
The Ticino pass giving you free public transportation. The exterior photos shown are not the photos of where I stayed. There are two different locations advertised here. (It would not be a problem if it was made clear that the apartments were in different locations.)
There was construction in the building atrium just outside my windows.
The one bedroom apartment that I booked was a studio (it's the one with the old furniture.) It does not have a patio. It does not have a landmark view. It had a view of construction in the atrium of the building. (Again, a studio is not a problem for me. Advertising a studio as a one bedroom is. Same for the non-existent patio and landmark view.)
I didn't care for their check in and check out process. I said I would be there in the first hour after check in opened but I got an email saying they don't have 24 check in!? I had to make an appointment for a specific time for check in.
For check out they tried to get me to download their App. I had prepaid. I successfully argued out of it but they shouldn't have asked.
There was no night stand next to the bed for your phone and things.
The furniture was not antique or theft store finds but just plain old.
- Rahul (10/5): Convenient location, nice , clean apartment. - Conveniently located, excellent amenities and very welcoming host. Added advantage was that they provided ticino ticket. Nothing
- Martin (9/5): Superb -
- Bo (6/5): Pleasant -
- Eileen (9/5): Convenient - Location.
- Tracey (8/5): We had a great time walking around the town and felt at home in this peaceful location. - Excellent location, and beautiful character to the apartment. It is very hot in warmer months.
- Catherine (7/5): Good - The very friendly and helpful staff, who gave us a lot of information about the area, local shops and restaurants.
The central location. The fact that the inside patio roof was covered (because of renovation work), it was quite dark inside the apartment and therefore there wasn't a view to the outside. (it could be an idea to mention it on the website)
The shower didn't drain properly.
- Natalie (8/5): A comfortable place to stay, i recommend it. Its easy to get to the centre of the city and has lots of shopping options - It was nice and comfy, bed sheets were a really comfortable fabrig, the fridge worked perfectly and there was warm water in the shower.
- Nadia (10/5): Exceptional - Thought I was in an old Italian movie scenery, cinema Paradiso! Great back yard, kind host, friendly environment, very clean!
- Tatrin (7/5): Good - Very got reception with a lot of information..Excellent location.
- Karen (10/5): Great apartment in the centre of Locarno -
- Mikaela (9/5): Lovely studio apartment in a great location to get around Como. - The accommodation was lovely and in a wonderful location. It was comfortable one room studio with a small kitchen that had everything we needed - and had coffee pods and tea too! And the room was ready early so we could get in and leave our luggage!!!!
- Erin (10/5): Exceptional - Very central to everything. Parking station not far away. Lovely walk around the lake. Towels were a bit thin.
- Talia (10/5): Exceptional - The hospitality was great, the location is excellent, the host recommendations were awesome, the Napoli coffee - amazing, and we enjoyed every moment in Locarno. I'd have loved to have more cutlery and a large cup for my morning tea, but we made do with a pot :-)
- Ambassador (10/5): Exceptional -
- Phil (7/5): Good location. Just needs a bit more thought on facilities - The location was good as had good food and shopping and not far from trains and ferry We had 6 nights and it was not really ideal for a longer stay. No washing machine, had to request an iron. Limited cooking options. It was a studio apartment so not as flexible.
- Rita (8/5): Great location. Easy check-in and check-out. Host really helpful. Would stay again. Recommended. -
- Amol (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adrian (7/5): Good -
- Agnes (8/5): Convenient location for trip to Locarno to visit family. - Clean, spacious, excellent location. No windows to the outside.The existing windows have view on the inside courtyard.
- Rosamaria (8/5): Very good - Bed was excellent. Room was large with minimal furnishings. Location was excellent - 20m fro the Piazza Grande. A couch or comfortable piece of seating furniture could have been provided.
- Steve (8/5): Quiet place to stay but still close to everything. Would recommend. - Location was great. Right near the main square but very quiet. Could have done with more pillows on the bed.
- Charlotte (10/5): Nice place to stay - Clean, convenient location. Friendly check in - would stay again Check in sign is not “Great2stay”, it’s another property sign, a bit confusing. Also, the bed squeaks getting in out and turning during the night
- Jon (8/5): Very good - Great staff, kind, super responsive & helpful with suggestions of best way to get around and restaurants. Great location very near piazza & close to Coop store. There was a fan in the apartment which was very helpful in the heat. Air conditioning worked at night which helped also. There was some live music in the piazza at night. Apartment was very hot during the day. Some additional clothes hangers would be good.
- Eiríkur (10/5): Exceptional - The warm welkoming and the location.
Thanjs and we will be bakc.
- Josette (8/5): Very good -
- Janice (6/5): The balcony feature was very disappointing but the studio apartment was clean and centrally located - great location in a classic building within a short walk to the Piazza Grande, Locarno.
Restaurants and shopping nearby. Small apartment with kitchen facility and private bathroom.
Easy check in at a store near to the property. The advertised balcony was very small and outdoor chairs were not provided.
The outlook from the balcony was a courtyard of other apartments.
- Magdalena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexandra (8/5): Very good -
