Virgi's Apartment

Bellissimo appartamento con una vista mozzafiato sulle isole Borromee! Buona la comunicazione con l'agenzia sempre disponibile a rispondere alle varie domande.

E' la prima volta che mi capita di dover noleggiare le lenzuola in un appartamento e avendo scelto il noleggio mi aspettavo che almeno il letto venisse fatto e non di doverlo fare io! Purtroppo faceva davvero molto freddo e non c'era la possibilità di accendere il riscaldamento essendo centralizzato! (consiglio di aggiungere qualche coperta in più!).

View

There is no internet 🛜 password in the room upon arrival. Host was not reachable for 12 hours . No iron . No heat until oct 15 . Apartment temperature was very low (17.5) inside the apartment, which is not comfortable for shower . Host allowed me to use little heater fan with bad results :( Power was shot down when washing machine and fan were used . I need to disturb the neighbors to help me to fix problem by myself. View is amazing

Las vistas

La cuesta para subir, por la carretera

-La grande terrasse. -La vue magnifique sur le lac majeur et les îles. -La taille de l'appartement adaptée pour une famille de 4. -La proximité de centre de Stresa même si ça monte au retour et si une portion de route peut être dangereuse avec des enfants.

-Le bruit continue des voitures et des motards. Une route assez passante est sous l'appartement. Le passage de certains véhicules est bruyant. -Attention le propriétaire prélève le paiement en Francs Suisses et non en Euros ce qui est nullement indiqué sur l'annonce et dans les conditions de paiement. Cela manque clairement de transparence d'autant plus que ce prélèvement implique des frais de commission qui sont à la charge du loueur ! A ce jour Booking n'a pas répondu pour trouver une solution. Cela gâche un peu l'expérience. -Au final le rapport qualité/prix reste décevant (pas de draps, pas de serviette qui sont en supplément et pas de produits de lavage pour le lave vaisselle).

The space of the apartment was good and the view was fantastic.

Didn't realise it was such a steep climb. A welcome pack would have been fantastic, just a bottle of water a couple coffee/teabags/sugar sachets. Needed more than 1 bin bag for rubbish. I dont think 1 small bar of soap can be classed as toiletries available and it could do with a small shelf in the shower to place shower gel and shampoo.

Spacious and well equipped with a stunning view from the large balcony. You pay for that view by having to walk up countless steep steps from the town. It kept us fit!

A bit noisy at times. The road running by and the gardeners working at nearby properties. But nothing to spoil our fantastic stay.

The view is breathtaking, the apartment is clean, has everything you need. We even had Italian coffee which we really enjoyed.

Very nice, traditional, well maintained apartment with a beautiful view. Close to the old town, the lake, supermarkets, and the train station. The rooms are surprisingly tall.

Well reachable by car. However, the walk from the old town/ train station is a bit cumbersome due to steep and not illuminated stairs. It also requires walking for 100...200m on a busy street without a side walk.

Location with nice view of all 3 Borromean islands. Huge balcony.

For people with car parking can be problem as half of small public parking across the street is dedicated for school bus (was no issue for us as we only used parking for one night). Luck of some appliances (toaster, microwave) probably due to limited size of kitchen, but we used gas stove to heat food. Very difficult steep road to apartment, we had to use taxi, but this is price for unique view you are getting.
