    If there is only 1 thing, it is the need to carry the luggage up the steps. As we travelled all the way from Singapore, and this being just one of the locations we were going to, we had huge luggages. I think this is expected with all the buildings in Stresa. Giuliano was great though, helping to take some of the luggages up for us too.

    The host, Giuliano was great. He went above and beyond to pick us up from the Stresa station as there was no taxi available. Because we were a group of 4 adults and 1 child with 4 big luggages, he even had to make 2 trips. Overall the place was great.

    Nothing. Outstanding place.

    The greeting was warm, the location in the centre of Stresa was fabulous and a great base for exploring beautiful Lake Maggiore and further afield to Lake Orta. Close to both ferry and bus. Apartment was spacious and airy, lovely bathroom and excellent luggage storage that kept floor space clear. Postioned above a nice restaurant but still quiet. The delightful balcony, both front and back, was a real highlight allowing for private aperitif or dinner with view and atmosphere. Would come back - again and again.

    This is a lovely apartment in a great location. You are less than 5 minutes walk from the ferry terminal, a bus stop, a supermarket, cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. The apartment itself is great. Everything is clean, well maintained and all the basics are provided including good quality bedding and towels. The bed folds away but it's a king size, comfortable mattress and we actually left it down during our stay as there is plenty of room. The terrace is great, a sun trap but a large parasol is provided. Giuliano is a fantastic host. he really wants to make sure everything is done for you to be able to have a good holiday. We would love to return.

    Nothing...it was all just perfect!

    The apartment is lovely, spotlessly clean and comfortable! I location is ideal...you literally walk out the door into the heart of everything. It's quiet as well. Both the bedrooms have air conditioning so you can climate control for your comfort. It's also incredible to have this much space, and a 2 bedroom 2 bath with both having complete privacy...amazing. Giuliano was an exceptional host. Very communicative, flexible, and incredibly helpful in supporting me to figure out the area and transportation back to MXP. I absolutely would recommend this apartment and will definitely stay there again when I return. Thank you Giuliano for everything!!

    Excellent location within minutes from ferries and hop-on hop-off boats. The apartment is located in the centre of the old town amidst restaurants, cafes, shops, wine bars, etc. The host was wonderful- extremely helpful and kind. The apartment was immaculate and very comfortable. There is a little balcony at the front and the rear of the apartment.

    To us it was ok, but be aware of the steep stairs, also inside the flat.

    Perfect location Extremely Spacious (lavanda flat, in the last floors) Excellent bedding and towels Very quiet (pedestrian area and we didn’t hear anything from the below restaurant) Spotlessly clean (and I mean it, one of the cleanest place I ve ever stayed) Very responsive host

    This property is exceptional! The host, Guiliano, is kind, attentive and takes great pride in his property. He was helpful, informative and such a pleasure to work with. This apartment could not be in a better location. It is minutes from the ferry dock and close to excellent restaurants and gelato shops. It was clean, spacious and very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for an amazing stay, Guiliano, we appreciate all you did for us.

    The location of the apartment is perfect for exploring without a car. It is accessible by train (although the train stopped in Arona due to track repair) and bus from airport. The ferries to the islands and other stops are a stone's throw from the apartment. Our apartment, Mimosa, was on the second floor. It was clean, light, airy with a comfortable bed and fabulous bathroom! We sat outside on the small back balcony in the late afternoon after a day of exploring with a beer and glass of wine and listened to the hustle and bustle of tourists below. Giuliano was friendly with an easy manner and accommodating letting us store our luggage in the apt hours before check in. We like to cook and I would have liked sharper knives, a wooden cutting board, a newer fry/saute pan and a some simple basics in the kitchen for our stay. Aside from that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I would highly recommend the apartment!
