Reviews of A World Aparts – 12 Viviani

• Alcicaaa from Slovenia – 31 October 2024 (8/10)

  Lokacija apartmaja je res odlična, blizu vseh pomembnih znamenitosti v Veroni. Zgradba ima dvigalo, apartma se nahaja v tretjem nadstropju. 50 metrov od zgradbe se nahaja trgovina z živilskimi stvarmi. Apartma je dovolj velik, s funkcionalno teraso, en del nje je tudi pokrit. Zelo enostaven prihod in odhod, lastniki oz posredniki odzivni na WhatsApp. Poleg zakonske postelje v spalnici, nudi apartma tudi raztegljiv kavč v kuhinji oz jedilnici. Pohištvo je zelo lepo in moderno. Na voljo so posteljnina in brisače, v omari pa je na voljo se dodatna.
  
  What could be improved: Apartmaju primanjkuje osnovna posoda, vsaj loncek za kuhanje kave bi bil res super. Tudi malo več čistoče bi apartmaju dvignilo oceno. Apartma je drugače res super, vendar pa se malo pozna, da ni primerno vzdrževano

• Tania from Australia – 28 September 2024 (4/10)

  What could be improved: Fantastic location but the apartment wasn't clean and unkept.

• Ioannis from Greece – 14 August 2024 (8/10)

  Η ΤΟΠΟΘΕΣΙΑ ΗΤΑΝ ΕΞΑΙΡΕΤΙΚΗ, ΠΟΛΥ ΟΜΟΡΦΟ ΔΙΑΜΕΡΙΣΜΑ ΚΑΙ ΕΥΡΥΧΩΡΟ.
  
  What could be improved: Η ΚΑΘΑΡΙΟΤΗΤΑ ΗΤΑΝ ΕΛΛΕΙΠΗΣ

• Camila from United Kingdom – 11 July 2024 (7/10)

  The location and the customer service.
  
  What could be improved: The AC wasn't cooling the property enough.

• Alessandro from France – 14 December 2023 (6/10)

  Perfect position in the historical center of Verona, very close to all the main monuments.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment was not well maintained, with a strong smell of stagnant water in the bathroom and a non-functioning roller shutter.
  The blanket of the sofa bed had big yellow stains.
  No espresso machine, and the moka could not work directly on the induction plate.
  It's a pity, as the apartment is overall nice and very well positioned, but the "basic" comfort I would expect for the price paid are missing.

• Bodo from Germany – 19 September 2023 (9/10)

  We felt very comfortable in the accommodation and would like to come back as soon as possible! I really can't understand the partly very bad comments of the other visitors? It was clean, quiet and lacked nothing. If you have a question or a problem, you can contact the administration very easily via WhatsApp and they will help you very quickly. Even after official office hours!
  Of course, there can always be something wrong, but that happens everywhere, even in a Hilton! As I said, a short message is enough and you will be helped! We especially liked the large balcony with its comfortable furniture.
  
  What could be improved: The only thing we missed was a power socket on the balcony (and a few more clothes pegs 😂). And we prefer separate duvets instead of a large one to be shared. Anyway, we would love to come back!

• Sabrina from Italy – 31 July 2023 (8/10)

  Posizione ottima, design appartamento molto bello
  
  What could be improved: la mancanza di una spugna per i piatti, detersivo e carta da cucina

• Konstantinos from Cyprus – 29 July 2023 (5/10)

  Great location
  
  What could be improved: When we arrived, the property was not ready for us and had an unpleasant odor. Upon returning a few hours later, we found that the apartment had been cleaned, but there was still a musty smell coming from the bathroom. Additionally, the air conditioning in the bedroom was not functional, which made our nights uncomfortable.Also the door shutter connecting to the veranda was stuck, and despite being assured that it would be fixed on Monday, no one came to resolve the issue.

• Suzanne from United Kingdom – 23 May 2023 (5/10)

  The location was great and the facilities it had were just what we needed for a 4 night stay, the balcony space was an added bonus.
  
  What could be improved: The property needed some maintenance and looked quite tired. The cleanliness was very disappointing and we had to contact the company.

• Hamed from Bahrain – 12 October 2022 (1/10)
