The hosts were lovely people. They thought of everything to make our stay perfect. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was great. Love the nepresso machine! The location of the room was within easy walking distance of the Arena di Verona and other great sights. I highly recommend this place.

Wonderful experience! Excellent communication beforehand. Good instructions how to drive our rental car into ZTL zone and where to meet. Met by Andrea; he kindly helped us park our car in their private parking and led us to their upper floor suites in an elegant historical building which was totally beautifully renovated . Elevator was appreciated. Our room was spacious and thoughtfully laid out, with bottles of water provided and a spacious bathroom. Very good shower. There was a common room which had tables, refrigerator, lovely Nespresso and a beautiful outdoor sitting patio. Everything needed for a comfortable stay. Andrea was very hospitable! He stored our luggage so we had extra time to explore this wonderful town; and was kind and flexible when we had to delay our final meeting departure time (pizza took a bit longer than we expected at local delicious cafe!)
Hayley from United Kingdom – 4 November 2024 (10/10)
The apartment is absolutely IMMACULATE.
Our en suite room was perfect and the bed is one of the comfiest I've slept in!
The communal living area again was always so clean and the Nespresso machine with large selection of capsules was a great addition!
Every single thing in the apartment is of a very high quality and standard – a lot of love has gone into it!
The location is perfect in the centre of the old town where all the designer shops are. We walked to the famous Arena in less than 5 minutes
Elisbaetta, the host was perfect. She was always available and was friendly and helpful! She even left a bottle of wine as a welcome gift in our room!
I honestly cannot fault our stay at all and would 100%returnJohn from United Kingdom – 24 August 2024 (9/10)
Central to the historical district. Perfect for attending the opera and the owners could not have been more welcoming and helpful. A pleasant restaurant on one side and a useful supermarket on the other. Very quiet and restful.

The accommodation is in amazing place and location, close to Arena, had a garage parking available. The apartment is very cozy, modern, and clean, in a building with an elevator, and the hosts are very pleasant and helpful! We will be back here!

Great location, a few minutes walk from the Arena and other sights. Spacious and well equipped room, shared kitchen with facilities to make your own coffee/breakfast in the morning. Hosts Andrea and Elisabetta very welcoming, room was ready as soon as we arrived (2 hours early for check in!), good advice on places to visit during our short stay.

Exceptional location, three minutes walk from the arena, and two minutes walk from the city center shopping and eating areas.
What could be improved: I didn't realize a pun booking this location it was one of five apartments that share a common area, but don't regret it at all.Jane from United Kingdom – 13 July 2024 (10/10)
Great location just a few minutes from the Arena and centre. Good kitchen area and shared outside space.
Hosts very helpfulSilvia from United Kingdom – 15 June 2024 (10/10)
A little gem inside the heart of Verona with only a few steps away from the arena. The most friendly and helpful owners. The place was absolutely spotless. A welcome bottle of Prosecco, which was lovely to share in the evening on the cute little patio. We had a fantastic time and will definitely return.
