Outstanding View of Lake Como
Pictures do not show how beautiful the views of the lake from this apartment. Host was very engaging and helpful at all times Only downsides were minor (traffic noise and dryer that didn’t dry clothes). Overall, outstanding 2-week stay and this beautiful part of the world. THANK YOU for everything!

Wonderful
Let’s start with Sara being a magnificent host. She communicates in very precise terms and is so friendly. The views of the lake are simply AMAZING. I worried about the warm weather and the unit not having AC. There is a draft through the unit throughout the day and with the cool evenings, well sleeping comfortably was not a problem. Will definitely be back one day.

A week in Como
The property was everything that we expected from the description. The view from the balcony was stunning. The property is a little out of town, but the buses were very convenient. A fantastic week.

What a beautiful location! Sara, our host was so helpful and the apartment was amazing. The pictures on vrbo are good, but really do not do the actual view or apartment real justice …. Seeing is believing Transport links to town are good For sure you will be sitting on the balcony in awe ! Well done Sara! Thanks

The view from the apartment was simply spectacular, better than the photos. The drive into the property was as described, NARROW, so a small car is helpful. But the apartment and the view made that all worth it. Thank you, Sara!

Beautiful Lake View
We could not beat the balcony view from Sara’s home! We did not have a car but once we figured out the bus routes, it was very easy to get to and from. We sat outside every night to enjoy the view and all slept very well in the rooms. Sara was easy to communicate and her place was well stocked with all the basics. Would definitely recommend to others and would stay again!

Sehr schöne Wohnung
Die Wohnung ist super. Tolle Ausstattung, alles da, was man braucht. Der Supermarkt und auch eine sehr gute Bäckerei sind fußläufig zu erreichen. Einziger Markel war für uns die sehr stark befahrene Straße, die unterhalb der Wohnung vorbeiführt. Schlafen bei offenem Fenster war nicht möglich. Aber ansonsten alles perfekt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Kurzaufenthalt
Sehr schöne Wohnung. Hatten gedacht, dass 2 komplette Badezimmer vorhanden sind da wir 2 Paare waren und jeder seine Intimsphäre was Bad betrifft hat benötigt hätte . War leider nicht so. Also nachfragen ob das 2. Bad auch eine Dusche hat. Trotzdem war die Wohnung sehr schön. Alles war vorhanden, der Blick auf den See war super. Kann man nur empfehlen.
