Glow - by MyHomeInComo

La maison est top du top, situation à 7min de marche de la gare du train et situer au centre de la ville de como. La maison est très propre et high quality et calme et très bien meublé et le service checkin/checkout top et rapide. Et j'ai bien aimé d'avoir 4 bouteilles d'eau de 50cl ainsi 4 capsule de café nespresso, merci beaucoup c'est top acceuil.

Rien à signalé.

La ubicación es muy buena, en pleno centro de Como. El sistema de entrada es muy sencillo, con unas llaves que se recogen con un código. El apartamento es precioso. Muy bien decorado, el espacio está muy bien aprovechado, y las camas son muy cómodas. Tiene además, dos baños muy amplios, plancha y tabla de planchar, y lavadora y tendedero. La televisión es enorme. En general, el apartamento es muy acogedor.

Hay que subir bastantes escaleras para acceder al propio apartamento. Y el mismo apartamento tiene escaleras porque es un duplex. Esto no es una crítica, sino una observación, ya que ya lo sabía cuando lo contraté. Pero si creo que podría ser un problema para personas con movilidad reducida. Por otra parte, la ducha no era fácil de manejar, y no había manera de que saliera por la alcachofa en lugar de por arriba. Solo había cuatro rollos de papel higiénico para cuatro días y medio. Hubiera sido un detalle dejar algún agua en la nevera de cortesía. De hecho nosotras acabamos dejando dos botellas precintadas. Como apunte, creo que sería buena idea marcar con cinta adhesiva, fluorescente los escalones de acceso a los baños, ya que creo que es fácil que haya un accidente, especialmente de noche

Location

Bathroom.. shower was stained as was floor. Weird smell inside the shower. We couldnt get the air conditioning to work . Had trouble with the TV.. converter wasn't working and wasn't connecting to the service. The owner did reach out and offer suggestions.. we weren't at the condo long enough during the day to try to remediate the issues.

The Glow property in Como is very centrally located - surrounded by many restaurants and shops, and just a short walking distance to the Duomo and also to the pier where one can buy the boat tickets and board the boats to visit many sites surrounding Lake Como. The Glow is a nice property. It is clean and the main floor of the apartment has a nice kitchen, living room area (with a large TV) and dining area. However, please know that this property has only one true bedroom. The other room that some could consider a bedroom has a sleeping section that is only suitable for agile kids, as it resembles the top part of a bunk bed, as one has to climb very steep steps and then crawl to the bed. This is definitely not for adults to use. Additionally, please know that one has to go up two (2) flights of stairs to get to the Glow apartment itself, and then, once inside the apartment, one needs to climb anther flight of stairs to get to the bedroom and to the main bathroom (the one with the shower). For those with mobility issues, please take this information into your consideration. To the owners of this property, PLEASE make sure to provide the manuals for using the washing machine, the kitchen oven and the TV. For Americans, the kitchen oven and washing machine are very different from what we have in the US, and it takes a lot of effort to figure out how to use them properly. Maybe this is not the case for Europeans - but for very well traveled Americans, they presented challenges.

Heating throughout. Bathroom functional. Washing machine.

We were eventually met at the station by the agent. Communication could use work. My informing the agency that I didn't have Wi-Fi during travel fell on deaf ears. We were shown photos of the lockbox downstairs and of the front door. The only distinguishing feature of the latter was the door mat. The apartment, as indicated from the description, is on the top level of the building. Of the 33 steps, many are circular, worn, and slippery. There is no lift, or a secure rail. To access the bedrooms, you have to climb the staircase. Here, there is a safety rail. Bedroom 1 is charming. Bedroom 2 has a mattress in a loft area, reachable by 4 steps. This is appropriate for a juvenile. The 2nd bed in the room is a fold out bed which is too narrow for an adult. The lounge can be used as a bed.

The location was perfect . Very clean and chic . Beds were very comfortable .

The walk to get the keys for property was a little far, it was a little rough walking that way with all our luggage . But they were kind enough to get us a taxi to take us back to the property .

The place is beautiful, and completely as described in the photos, and we were welcomed by the agency on check-in and provided with all necessary instructions and also kind recommendations. They also responded immediately to our call when we realized there is a problem once we entered the apartment.

The heating didn't work upon our arrival, and to be fair the agency quickly sent someone to check, and later the repair person to fix the gas heater. But when we came back in the apartment after diner, there was a strong smell of gas in the upper floor where the bedrooms are, so we were concerned that there might be a gas leak or something, and we decided to leave and find another accommodation.

Everything was great, great location and apartment.
