- Monika (9/5): Es ist eine hübsche, saubere, kompakte Wohnung. - Es war eine schöne kompakte Wohnung. Ich war mit meinen 2 Kindern da und der Platz war völlig ausreichend. Für einen kurztripp ist die Wohnung ideal. Die Ausstatung in der Küche ist etwas knapp zum kochen.

- KONSTANTINOS (7/5): Good - Modern flat, close to the lake, very polite hostage at the phone very helpful Small space, not good sofa bed matrice for kids, a little bit expensive, they asked more money at the check in procedure
- Giovanni Jacopo (10/5): - Molto carina e accogliente. Molto luminosa.
- Irina (7/5): It was great! - It was quiet and nice, especially during the nights when the cars were passing by. It was a bit too warm in the living room but, manageable.
- patricia (3/5): - Ubicación Olía a cigarrillos
No tenía internet toda la estancia
No servía la llave para entrar al edificio y al apartamento
No respondían el administrador
Muchos ruidos fuertes en el edificio no se podía descansar
- Asta (9/5): - Jaukus, mažas butukas. Toliau nuo miesto centro. Bet centras pasiekiamas viešuoju transportu arba einant apie 20 min gražia promenada palei ežerą. Vaizdas per langą tiesiog į šlaitą :) bet apsistojimą vertinu stipriu 9 :) Buvo nešvarus kilimas ir trūksta jaukesnės šviesos vakare arba knygos skaitymui.

- Shabana (4/5): Disappointed waste of money. Pictures are deceiving. - Location First of all picture on here are deceiving. Nothing like what you see online, we got a tiny apartment. There is no balcony or a view, no dining table and the beds are uncomfortable. The kitchen didn’t have a washing machine, microwave or toaster. No cleaning products, vacuum or sweeping brush. If you make a mess in the apartment then you have to just live with that mess. On the site it mentions that is a washing machine which is one of the reasons I booked this place because I have two kids, however you have to pay for the washing machine. There is no “special request” you have to pay for it and it’s outside the apartment. This has to be mentioned on their details. It seems that the owners didn’t not clean before we came because there was dust and spider webs on lights and side of the wardrobes. Also the tv remote’s batteries were not working clearly shows that the owners didn’t even check if everything is working for the guests. I contacted the staff told her my son watches the tv and the remote is not working. I had to connect the tv to my mobile and I got ignored for whole day, I had to contact the staff again to remind her it’s not working. She didn’t message me or anything instead I got a call from a number asking me what’s wrong with the tv. Another reason I choice this apartment because of the sofa bed and it was so uncomfortable that my husband had to sleep on the floor for 5 nights. I used the washing machine and there was no washing powder or tablets I had to wait for staff to bring it for me and the machine wasn’t working properly it didn’t finish so I had to finish washing my clothes in the apartment. I send a video of the machine and my clothes to staff but I was told you have to pay. Why should I pay for something that didn’t finish the job. Overall it’s disappointing waste of money. I get a message the small bathroom towel is damaged and I have to pay €30 euros for that!!!
- ANNA (8/5): Da ripetere - Ottimo trovare cialde del caffè appena svegli.
La posizione è molto buona vicino ad un supermercato ed una farmacia.
Il centro a 20 minuti a piedi.
Comodissimo il posto auto. Divano un po macchiato
- Leandro (9/5): Hat meine Erwartungen erfüllt, bin zufrieden - Gute Lage, alles sehr sauber, bequemes Bett Die tür ist sehr schwer zum aufmachen.
- Salvatore (9/5): - Alles hat gut funktioniert. Die Wohnung hat alles was man braucht.

- Emma (9/5): Upgraded to a gorgeous and centrally located property - Gorgeous flat, beautiful property and views. Enjoyed the balcony. It was incredibly spacious. We really enjoyed spending time there. It was in a central location. When we arrived to the property, the host messaged to say he had upgraded us for free which we were really grateful for. He then forgot to send us new details of the property until I phoned him and then he told us that the new upgraded property was 30 mins away from the original flat. It would have been fine if we received details of the upgraded flat earlier as it was actually a better location than the flat we’d originally booked. We’d had a long day and then had to walk 30 minutes to check in.
- Luca (5/5): -
- Iryna (7/5): - Ціна відповідає якості
- Elisa (10/5): Fantastico - Accogliente, calda e essenziale. Non posso lamentarmi di nulla
- Rafael Brägger (9/5): -
- Maya (9/5): - Appartament allgemein, Lage Mir fehlte ein Kühlschrank, konnte nicht fernsehen und hatte einige male Mühe mit dem Schlüssel beim Eingang, überhaupt reinzukommen.
- Hang (10/5): - Pulito e attrezzato con tutto il necessario
- José Antonio (10/5): - La ubicación era maravillosa y el spartamento muy acogedor.
Además, las tarjetas de Ticino Ticket y los descuentos han sido de mucha ayuda para viajar y visitar museos Falló el wifi el primer día, pero se solucionó en 24 horas
- Gaston (10/5): - The bathroom was ample and spacious, nice shower and enough space to place my things next to the sink. A good bathroom makes a big difference when you are the type of traveler that basically only sleeps and showers at the apartment.
- Marcel (7/5): Buena ubicación - La ubicación es muy buena, cerca del Monte San Salvatore y del centro. El acceso es fácil y la comunicación con ellos es ágil. Algunos muebles un poco viejos, el sofá cama hacia mucho ruido. Departamento un poco pequeño.
- Anastasiia (10/5): Дуже гарне помешкання, рекомендую! Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft, ich kann sie nur empfehlen! - Усе сподобалось, все зручно і приємно знаходитись у приміщенні. Є весь потрібний посуд, чай, кава і легкі перекуси, що при заїзді було дуже доречно!
Mir hat alles sehr gut gefallen – alles ist bequem, und es ist angenehm, sich im Raum aufzuhalten. Es gibt sämtliches benötigtes Geschirr, Tee, Kaffee und leichte Snacks – das war bei der Ankunft sehr passend! У нас був барний стіл з барними стільцями, що було не дуже зручно дітям, але не критично.
Wir hatten einen Bartisch mit Barhockern, was für die Kinder nicht ganz bequem war, aber nicht weiter schlimm.
- Josef (9/5): Recommended - Good location, a 20-minute walk from the train station, but you can also take bus number 2 (free transport; ask the host for a tourist card). The apartment, on the fifth floor with an elevator, is comfortable, spacious, and quiet despite being on the corner of a busy street.
The kitchenette is sufficiently equipped.
A comfortable bathroom.
Shopping is available at Coop City, not directly next to the house, but nearby.
Good online communication with the host. The keys are in a box.
- Senpinar-Dülek (1/5): Katastrophe - Das der Buss vor der Haustüre gefahren ist. Wir wollten um 11:00 Check out machen dafür wurde von uns 30 Fr pro Apartment verlangt. Parkplatz war für 2 Tage 50Fr was eine abzockerei ist. Die Apartments waren verstaubt, kalt, unhygienisch. Es wurde bei nichts entgegen gekommen. Auch bei Check In mussten wir 3 std vor dem Hotel Warten.
Beim Check out war niemand vorhanden und wir mussten da nochmal 119Fr zahlen, wo wir nicht mal wissen für was. Das Geld was wir geben mussten war nur Bar möglich. Es war unverschämt wie man mit Kunden umgeht definitiv nie wider.

- Bertuca (8/5): - La struttura L entrata nella struttura alle 16
Parcheggio non compreso. È troppo caro pur non essendo in centro
- Graziana (8/5): - La struttura era curata e vicino al lago. Per noi c'era freddo, anche se c'era il riscaldamento a pavimento che però non abbiamo molto percepito. Peró l'appartamento era fornito anche di coperte

- Juliane (7/5): - Sehr gute Lage Anbindung Sehr eng für 3 Personen und wenig Geschirr für einen Geschirrspüler
- Cynthia (8/5): Prima appartement - Mooi appartement, vooral de badkamer en keuken erg netjes. Loopafstand van t station en boulevard, wel wat ver van t "echte" centrum. Met slaapbank uitgeklapt was het nogal krap, en de airco was in de slaapkamer en koelde niet genoeg om ook de woonkamer (met slaapbank) te koelen.
- Miroslaw (7/5): -
- CRISTIANO (10/5): - Ottima posizione per visitare il Lago, appartamento moderno, accogliente per 4 persone e molto pulito! Lavastoviglie, cucina e bagno ottimi!
- Susanne (9/5): -
- Manuela (10/5): -
- Andrei (10/5): - La posizione e perfetta, si può andare a piedi a Lugano, funivia di monte San Salvatore vicina. Il condizzinatore che aveva un comportamento strano, a volte andava a volte no.
- Amy (10/5): The perfect mix of comfort, location, and genuine hospitality - We stayed here as a group of three and absolutely loved it! The location couldn’t be better, it was just a 5 minute walk to the Piazza del Duomo and the Leaning Tower, which made getting around so easy, once we arrived we didn’t have to drive or catch public transport anywhere. There was also secure parking for our car which was handy. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed.
The real highlight though was the hosts. They were so welcoming and took the time to show us a map of the city with the best local spots to eat and how to get to the tower. Their tips gave us a much more authentic experience of Pisa and made our stay extra special.
Would definitely recommend staying here if you’re visiting Pisa! Nothing
- Karine (8/5): - Superbe appartement tout confort et proche de la ville. Le check-out pourrait être à 12 pm au lieu de 10 am
- luv (9/5): - Il host molto gentile e disponibile. Si sono presentati un po' di problemi con l'aria condizionata ed è stato velocissimo a risolverli. Grazie ancora.
- Yassine (10/5): We spent a very nice week in Lugano, the hôte was really good. The house the equipment and everything was great - Very nice city, we really love the house, the food and the peaceful atmosphere in Lugano
- Francesca (7/5): Bella struttura ma non proprio confortevole - Interni molto belli e pulizia super La non presenza del balcone e il mal funzionamento del climatizzatore
- catalin (9/5): -
- Sam (10/5): Stato indimenticabile consigliato Lugano e la struttura Riva Live - Tutto Niente
- Nicolas (5/5): - Ambiente moderno Dichiarato climatizzatore ma non funzionate era stato preso questo alloggio pagando 70€ in più per aver il climatizzatore a differenza di un altro alloggio che non lo aveva ma alla fine non era funzionante. Ho fatto delle verifiche e ho allegato le foto
- Lidia (10/5): I can say it’s been comfortable to stay in this place, Cosy Paradise that was I called it. - We have our own breakfast. The location was easy reached to the lake, the centre, the train station, however the an apartment is located on very busy intersection, it’s practically next to the road. Nothing particularly negative about that place with exception of balcony is facing the sun afternoon and the apartment is very hot.
- Gabriel (10/5): Appartement idéal pour un séjour à Lugano - modernité de l'appartement, équipements. Salle de bain et chambre très spacieuse.
- Estanislao (2/5): Dissapointing, not an apartment - New streamlined design It's not an apartment by common european standards (neither three people)
There are no toaster nor microwave, no wastebasket in the bathroom, no coffee table in the living room, and no lamp next to the sofa. Not all ceiling lights work. Air conditioning is only in one room and extremely noisy.
No dish drainer, not even a hanger behind the front door. Look for elsewhere
- Daphne (7/5): Prima om even Lugano in te kunnen. - De locatie was perfect, airco was fijn Best klein. Barkrukken waren niet zo fijn. De parkeerplaats vond ik ook erg duur.
- Massimo (9/5): - Le camere erano ben attrezzate e moderne. Cucina molto funzionale. La struttura è di fronte alla fermata del bus collegata direttamente con il centro città. Letto non troppo comodo
- Uwe (9/5): -
- piox (8/5): - Mieszkanie w spokojnej okolicy , niedaleko od centrum . Bardzo dobry kontakt z gospodarzem , sprawne i szybkie zameldowanie i wymeldowanie. Ważna i pomocna informacja- w ramach rezerwacji przysługuje pakiet Ticino Ticket ( darmowa komunikacja w kantonie i zniżki w wielu turystycznych miejscach ) Brak stołu ,w przypadku spożywania posiłków jest tylko nieduży blat dla 4 osób.
- Arvydas (8/5): -
- Susanne (9/5): We had a comfortable stay - Fantastic location, clean The air con was very loud during the night
- Oliwia (7/5): Pobyt oceniam bardzo dobrze. Szkoda, że nie było stolika na balkonie tak jak na zdjęciu. - Czysty, wygodny apartament. Bardzo miło ze strony obsługi, że na miejscu były drobne przekąski oraz kawa. Nie było balkonu, takiego jak się spodziewaliśmy. Sąsiedzi w nocy strasznie hałasowali.
- AGNIESZKA KOSIŃSKA (10/5): -
- Vinay (10/5): - The apartment was great and the location was perfect. Sitting on the Sofa was not so comfortable.
- Radoszko (10/5): - I did pay city tax and log on webside. Howewer I did not recive instruction with a box number and code to get the keys. Thats wy it is only 4 stars. Stressfull.
- Nawal (9/5): - الموقع وسط لازم مواصلات ، ونظيفه جدا .. مافي تكييف إلا بغرفة النوم ، والصالة مافيها وسكنت فيها بشهر 7 يعني حر
- Solin (10/5): Otroligt fräscht tydliga instruktioner och lite allmän info på plats som var till nytta - Fräscht! Fanns det som önskade finnas på plats i kök och badrum Inget
- Muhammad (10/5): - Good property
- Manfred (5/5): Nicht länger als 3 Tage - Modern Lärm
- Attila (7/5): - Közel volt a belvároshoz! A 75CHF kellett a 3 nap parkolásért külön fizetni, amit kézpénzben, vagy utalva. Ez nem derült ki a foglalásnál!!!
- Non (4/5): Okay for one night to be near the train station. Not a holiday destination. - The property was in a good location, especially when using the central train station. It was satisfactory for a one night stay. Having arrived at 4pm (the provided check in time), the key wasn’t in the lock box. After 20-30 minutes of waiting outside, the cleaner came down with the key, having only finished cleaning. The cleaner was kind and apologetic, but the organisation was disappointing.
On arrival, the bedding was untidy and the flat had a prominent smell. Key factors of my unhappiness was the cleanliness. There was a chewing gum sticker stuck to a used ash tray, and there was a discarded lid on the floor (see images below).
Other points are - the balcony door didn’t open without lifting the carpet; there was no air-conditioning in the living room where I was sleeping; there was only one coffee pod in a used jam jar - different to that displayed online where you had an entire box available - strange with 3 guests booked to stay.
I don’t know whether we had a bad room out of those available, as most of the images look nice. If it was up to me, I’d have my cleaning fee refunded.
Thanks.
- Victoria (8/5): Muy buena, un poco calurosa - Cómodo, moderno, bien equipado Caluroso, el aire acondicionado poco efectivo para refrescar los ambientes
- Paulo Ricardo (7/5): Bom custo benefício - Localização Nada
- Hamza (8/5): -
- Oens (9/5): Excelente estancia en Lugano - Tod lo necesario, muy buen apartamento, muy buena ubicación, transporte público cercano y supermercados. Creo que una guía rápida escrita sería muy valorada, ha y como cerrar la puerta correctamente, tiene un sistema un poquito complejo. Falta un poquito de seguimiento, fueron 11 noches y no había nada para hacer aseo, una escoba o una limpieza de cortesía a mitad de la estancia hubiera sido muy valorada. Y una reposición de los elementos de aseo básicos también ayudaría. De resto excelente estancia.
