Reviews

  • Ppfd from Switzerland – 17 May 2023 (10/10)

    This is the first hotel that I'm giving 10 points 🙂 Mr. Roberto and his wife were very kind and helpful hosts. He even gave me a call when he found something I left behind. He was waiting to hand us the keys and explained everything when we arrived. As for the apartment, it was a very neat, nice and well-designed place, good for a couple but might not be big enough for a family with kids (although there was a sofa bed). The facilities include a TV (you can login your Netflix), a full kitchenette with electric stove, coffee-making machine, water boiler, refrigerator, with all pots and pans and spoons, etc. You can cook there although Verona offers many good and reasonably priced restaurants 🙂 The bathroom was recently renovated with a good and reasonable-sized shower, toilet and sink. The bed was big and comfortable. The apartment is not that big but it is of a good and comfortable size, located near the river in a quiet street not too far from the Arena and both the main plazas of Verona. There was a lift for heavy luggages. For us, this was a very nice place with good value for money. If we come back again, we will certainly try to get this place for our stay. Thanks very much, Mr. Roberto !

    What could be improved: Nothing really. But just to inform potential clients that this place is located in a part of the old town. So your car or taxi may not be able to arrive exactly at the door. You will have to walk a bit to reach there. But in Verona, it's best to walk 🙂
