Reviews

• James from United States – 7 July 2024 (9/10)

  Scilla was super responsive and met us on time even though we only booked an hour before we arrived. Check in was super easy and she was incredibly helpful.
  
  What could be improved: We had minor hiccup with the garage door since we drove but it got solved in no time.

• Stephen from Ireland – 2 January 2025 (9/10)

• Claire from United Kingdom – 11 November 2023 (8/10)

  Good location on the edge of the old city and a very stylish ground floor apartment.
  Owner responsive to any contact and accommodated our request for two separate rooms. She also recommended a good nearby restaurant.
  
  What could be improved: The wi-fi did not work – the owner did try to sort this but it was on a booster rather than separate router so that may not have helped.
  Only one entrance/exit – not sure about exit if an emergency, but to be fair we did not ask owner at the time about this.

• Alvaro from Belgium – 14 September 2023 (6/10)

  Very central location, big appartment.
  
  What could be improved: The appartment is on a ground floor and has a unusual distribution of the rooms (incl a shower in a kitchen). The wifi did not work. Moreover, there was no flexibility at all as regards the check-out time.

• Edoardo from Italy – 10 November 2024 (9/10)

  Appartamento veramente confortevole e ben arredato di buon gusto. Nonostante la vicinanza alla strada risulta essere ben insonorizzato. Ho potuto piacevolmente apprezzare il letto con delle calde coperte e una doccia con un getto molto rilassante. Ho trovato la casa ad una temperatura ottimale, anche grazie alla proprietaria che ha provveduto ad accenderlo prima del nostro arrivo. Il parcheggio privato ha aiutato molto in quanto la zona risulta essere molto vicina al centro storico e quindi risulta difficilissimo trovare posto, ed i pochi che ci sono tocca pagarli. Se tornerò a Verona avrò assolutamente piacere a tornare in questo appartamento.

• Elisabetta from Italy – 29 September 2024 (8/10)

  Ampio appartamento molto comodo con la stazione ferroviaria e il centro di Verona.I locali sono ampi e curati. I bagni nuovi e spaziosi.
  
  What could be improved: Il letto della camera posta davanti all'ingresso è in realtà un divano letto e il materasso si affossa un po', non ce lo vedrei per soggiorni di più sere. Alcuni dettagli andrebbero sistemati (lampadine bruciate, wi fi debole)

• Ulrich from Germany – 12 September 2024 (9/10)

  sehr großzügiges Raumangebot, Top-Lage, kostenloser geschützter Parkplatz im Hof, gute Ausstattung
  
  What could be improved: Hauptschlafzimmer war sehr dunkel, keine Deckenleuchte

• Anne from Switzerland – 6 July 2024 (8/10)

  Die Wohnung ist perfekt gelegen, nahe zur Altstadt, den Läden und der Arena di Verona.
  Das Apartment ist zweckmässig eingerichtet, hat zwei Badezimmer mit guten Duschen. Es war sauber, das Ein- und Auschecken einfach – Danke Scilla.
  
  What could be improved: Im grossen Schlafzimmer hätten wir etwas mehr Licht gewünscht.
