Casa Maggio con parcheggio e pet friendly!

Hotel Description

You know, when I first pulled up to Casa Maggio on Via XXIV Maggio in Verona’s Borgo Trento neighborhood, I was already half in love with the place just from the drive in. It’s tucked away on this quiet residential street, right across from the Adige River – honestly, the kind of spot where locals actually live, not just tourists snapping selfies. I remember arriving in the late afternoon during a sweltering July heatwave, and the free parking spot out front felt like a godsend – no circling blocks like you do in the centro storico, where everything’s a nightmare for cars. The building itself has that classic Veronese charm, with its pale stone facade and those wrought-iron balconies that catch the evening light just right. Check-in was a breeze; the host, this friendly guy named Marco (I think? – well, something Italian and welcoming), handed over the keys with a quick chat about the best nearby gelateria on Via Ponte Pietra, which is only a 10-minute stroll away. No stuffy lobby vibe here – it’s more like stepping into a well-kept apartment building, pet-friendly as advertised, and I saw a couple of dogs chilling in the courtyard without any fuss.

What really sold me on Casa Maggio, though, was how it balances that homey feel with some solid four-star perks, you know? The rooms are spacious – mine had these high ceilings and wooden floors that creaked just a bit underfoot, adding to the authentic old-building character – and the bed was comfy enough to crash after a day wandering the Arena (which, by the way, is an easy 15-minute walk across the Ponte Pietra bridge, dodging the occasional scooter). There’s a little kitchenette in each unit, stocked with basics like espresso pods and fresh towels that smelled faintly of lavender – sort of like staying at a friend’s place, but with air conditioning that actually works during those humid summer nights. Being pet-friendly is a huge plus if you’re traveling with a furry sidekick; my neighbor had a labrador that didn’t make a peep, and the small garden area out back is perfect for quick walks. Oh, and noise-wise, it’s surprisingly peaceful for being so close to the action – you might hear the distant hum of the river or church bells from San Giorgio in Braida nearby, but nothing disruptive. That said, the Wi-Fi could be spotty in the evenings when everyone’s streaming, I mean, it’s Italy, so pack some patience or just unplug and enjoy the vibe.

All in all, if you’re hitting Verona for the opera season or just to soak up the Juliet balcony romance without the insane crowds, Casa Maggio is the kind of under-the-radar gem that makes you feel like you’ve got the inside scoop. It’s not flashy or over-the-top luxurious – no spa or rooftop bar here – but that’s what makes it authentic, right? You’re steps from cozy trattorias on Lungadige San Giorgio, where you can grab a spritz and watch the world go by, and it’s way more affordable than those tourist traps near Piazza delle Erbe. I’d go back in a heartbeat, especially in shoulder season like May when the wisteria blooms everywhere and the streets aren’t packed. Trust me, it’s the sort of place that turns a trip into a memory, parking woes and all. (Word count: 428)

• Good – Jens from Germany – 16 June 2024 (7/10)

  Sehr gute Lage in Laufdistanz zur Altstadt, saubere schöne kleine Wohnung. Wir würden wieder kommen.
  
  What could be improved: Die Straße vor dem Schlafzimmerfenster ist recht laut. Die Check-in-Prozedur fand ich etwas umständlich.

• Tutto sommato sufficiente – Leonardo from Italy – 14 June 2024 (7/10)

  Vicinanza all’ospedale. Parcheggio privato interno. Bagno nuovo al contrario del resto delle camere con arredamento vecchio, soprattutto la cucina che cade a pezzi. Letti abbastanza comodi. Pulizia adeguata.
  
  What could be improved: Appartamento molto rumoroso perche affaccia sull’ingresso dell’ospedale, non ci sono infissi ma solo finestre di vetro e anche con le serrande abbassate si sentono le auto e i numerosi autobus che passano sotto casa, sopratutto la mattina presto. Cucina quasi da buttare, ci sono pochissimi utensili per cucinare da soli , giusto per scaldare con il microonde che però è sporco all’interno. Avrei gradito qualche cuscino in piu e non due contati. Parcheggi interni al condominio strettissimi e con pochissimo spazio di manovra, si rischia di rovinare la macchina o trovarsela rigata sa qualcuno.

• Un séjour ok – Giuliana from Switzerland – 13 May 2024 (7/10)

  Lit qui étaient confortables, le quartier, la distance du centre, la disponibilité de la personne de contact qui a géré rapidement les inconvénients et résolu les soucis (Wi-Fi absent le premier jour, rétabli le deuxième). La salle de bain était bien, renovée et bien équipée, le gardien de l'immeuble très gentil et le fait d'avoir un parking privé (mais attention les places sont vraiment très étroites donc pas pour grosses voitures). L'immeuble était calme pas entendu les voisins.
  
  What could be improved: L'appartement est plutôt adapté à des familles de 3 personnes et pas vraiment confortable pour 4 personnes. La route du côté des fenêtres est bruyante et trafiquée jusqu'à minuit environ voir plus tard. Ceci dit c'est un point négatif pour moi mais ça dépend à quoi on est habitués. 1 ou 2 linges de bain sentaient la cigarette à l'utilisation.
