Montecchio

The apartment was a lot bigger than we had expected, so plenty of room for two people. Although we found Padua quite confusing to work out at first, once we had our bearings we really appreciated the location. The nearby streets had supermarket, pharmacy, hardware store and a little takeaway selling panzarotti which we enjoyed. Bus to the train station was literally around the corner, you just had to find it. Then coming back we got off by Via Dante, which was very convenient. The apartment had everything we needed, and we ere very happy. Very friendly host allowed us to store the bags early while the cleaner finished up, then to leave a little later as well. we took a bit longer to walk fro the station and he was kind enough to patiently wait for us. The highlight of Padua was the Scrovegni Chapel, absolutely amazing. We also did a Brenta Canal tour to Venice, which was expensive but a great day out.

Only negative I can think of is that the kitchen area never had enough light, so was a little hard to do dishes etc. We were out most of the daylight hours, so were surprised on checkout day that there was actually a lot of natural light in the lounge and bedroom in the morning. we had walked from the trai. station, and google maps were a disaster. I would strongly suggest getting a taxi, then sort out the buses from there on.

The apartment was very comfortable, we were 4 ladies and we had 2 separate bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Very good location, in the historical center.

Excellent spacious apartment very central to all. It had also two bathrooms which suited us well.

Some of the plumbing needs attention. A little noisy from the restaurant below but only until midnight znd just kitchen clatter and chatter - not loud music.
