Disliked: Cleanliness
Great location. Poor property maintenance.
Great location but hard to find. Arrived and the property manager let us in ( no English ). Dishwasher full of previous tenants dishes, bed unmade and kitchen sink completely blocked up. We were given linen to make up the “ king “ bed which was 2 single beds ( including bed frames ) pushed together so there was always a gap between the mattresses and the fitted sheets ere for separate single beds. We advised the manager via a translation app that the sink was blocked and a plumber needed to be called. We were staying for 4 nights Monday to Friday and, surprise, surprise, the “ plumber “ could apparently not turn up until Friday, at the earliest. Such a shame these easy to rectify problems detracted from a beautifully located, tranquil property.

Oktober in Osteno
Die Wohnung hat eine ruhige Top-Lage im Dorf. Die Aussicht vom Balkon ist grandios. Abends kann man ein Getränk in der Bar am Hafen in typisch italienischer Atmosphäre genießen. Leider hatten wir nur 4 Tage um die Gegend zu erkunden. Wir kommen gerne noch einmal zurück.
