La Casa di Berenice a Porto Azzurro

The room was clean, there was a fridge and a microwave in the room and heating. Comfortable stay

Slept here while doing the GTE. Relatively close to the city center, check in and checkout went really smooth with really good directions from the host. Nearby you'll find a supermarket. Was really nice to have the coffee machine available!

The proximity to the town of Porto Azzurro

Parking was exceptionally difficult, not what we had been led to believe. So difficult in fact we would not have booked if we’d known just how hard it was to park nearby. Also, we were surprised at the lack of facilities, for example no soap, no jug, no plates, no cutlery. It’s true that these are not listed and we suppose it’s therefore our fault for expecting them but who expects hot water to be listed?

Overall, it was just ok.

All signage inside the apartment was in Italian, it would have been nice to have it in English as well. There was a washing machine on the landing, again instructions in Italian. The location was extremely difficult to find, as the taxi dropped me off in the wrong location Therefore, a map would have been extremely helpful showing the exact location to the rest of the town would be invaluable. Without the help of 4 young Italian teenagers who took around 10 minutes to finally locate the place. I would have found it impossible to locate on my own. Inside the apartment there was black mold in the shower in quite a number of places. I couldn't get the internet to work despite trying numerous times using different combinations. I was unable to contact the owner as no phone number was provided, only email. The bed cracked every time I rolled over. The window ledge in the bathroom was dusty and dirty. Flyscreen wire in the bathroom window was simply held on by thumb tacks, whereas. the one in the bedroom had a professional screen fitted. The worst thing that happened occurred around lunch time on Friday, as I returned to the apartment, I was unable to get in. I tried knocking several times with no answer. I then sat in the front garden for over an hour in the extremely hot sun before someone came out of the apartment. Apparently, the code required to enter had been changed and I hadn't been told of the change. Overall, I loved the Island, the food and the people were so friendly and always helped wherever possible. A special thank you to Gulia in the pharmacy who spoke English and was my savior in a number of ways. I'm sorry but I'm unable to recommend the place based on the above.

Great location (walking distance to the centre, supermarket, restaurants), bug parking lot nearby. The appartment was clean, well equipped and air conditioned. We also liked that it was pet friendly place and the communication of the staff was very nice too.

Our room was a little tight for a couple with a dog, however the bathroom was spacious. We would probably pick different room in the house next time.
