Scappo in Umbria, Bellavista

Breakfast not applicable. Great location. Host contact was friendly and responsive but ultimately stuck with a lemon to manage.

Host company contact Leonardo was cordial and tried hard to get hot water running but it wasn’t working first 5 days of our week stay. He did get the Internet up after a day or so. The hot water was basically non existent or present for maybe 2 minutes per day. My husband didn’t get a shower basically almost the whole week as a result. Our last day even after the “fix” neither of us had showers that we had finally looked forward to having, because it went out again, and we barely had enough hot water to do a very light batch of dishwashing but still had to leave 2 undone because the water was just cold, so we could not clean the oily residue off of them. This partly explains why we found so many of the dishes “dirty” on arrival. Listing advertised dishwasher and washing machine. The apartment has neither, and I specifically filtered my search to locations only with working Internet and washing machine because it was critical that I have one. We were told we were basically the first guests of the season after a winter closure. The owner or the manager really should have gone through the house before reopening to make sure things were operable. We did not sign up for glorified camping.
