week end favoloso!

Io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo trascorso due notti in questo appartamento e ci siamo trovati davvero bene. L'appartamento offre una favolosa vista sul lago che è la parte migliore di tutta la casa. Ci torneremo sicuramente :)

Schöne FeWo

Es ist eine sehr schöne (und saubere) Ferienwohnung, mit viel Platz und allem ausgestattet, was nötig ist (+ Fahrstuhl). Sie liegt ideal für Ausflüge, Supermarkt und kl. Lokale sind in der Nähe. Bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir sehr herzlich von Fr. Bianchi empfangen und bei Abreise auch verabschiedet. Kl. Minus: Das Schlafzimmer liegt zur Straßenseite (ist aber nicht anders möglich) und im Sommer, mit offenen Fenster, evtl. laut. Aber: Wir kommen sehr gern wieder!

Très bel appartement

Rien à dire concernant l'appartement, tout y est, cuisine, salle de bain, vraiment rien à dire. La vue est très belle par le petit balcon. Les propriétaires sont très gentils. Seul petit bémol, place de parking assez petite pour notre grand break (quelques manœuvres à prévoir). Sinon, il faut signaler la présence de trois chiens chez le voisin de l'autre côté de la route, dans le jardin, qui passent des heures à gueuler en coeur à chaque fois qu'un autre chien passe par là. J'avoue voir été réveillé chaque matin de la semaine par ces animaux... Je laisse tout de même une évaluation excellente vu que les propriétaires ne sont pas responsables de cette situation.

Skøn udsigt til Lugano søen

Overordnet set var det en dejlig lejlighed, men meget mangelfuld mht. køkkenudstyr og ikke et eneste vinglas fandtes. Ankomsten var aftalt til kl. 16, men ikke før kl. 17:30 var det muligt at komme ind i lejligheden! Parkeringen er ikke for brede biler.

Angenehme Woche

Die Ferienwohnung hervorragend, sehr schöne und funktionale Einrichtung, super Zustand. Schade, dass die Kontaktperson vor Ort nur italienisch spricht. Die Verständigung ist deswegen ein bisschen erschwert. Nach Anfangsschwierigkeiten und Dank Interhome, konnten einige Unannehmlichkeiten beseitigt werden. Die Lage direkt am See ist wunderschön, man muss nur den Lärm der nahen Straße in Kauf nehmen.

The apartment is perfectly situated with amazing views. The apartment has everything you need apart from English TV. Clean and tidy. A few minutes walk from cafes and restaurants. This location is perfect for a relaxing unrushed break

superbe endroit

Superbe endroit, vue magnifique sur le lac. Appartement particulièrement agréable. Inconvénients emplacement plutôt bruyant notamment le week end et en soirée ; nécessité de maîtriser un peu l'italien à l'arrivée pour la remise des clefs. Un endroit où nous aimerions retourner.

situation exceptionnelle

L'appartement est très bien situé très agréable malgré le bruit de la route . vue imprenable et sécurité assurée. par contre contrairement à ce qui est noté le gérant ne parle pas le français, il n'est pas facile de se faire comprendre ,de plus la climatisation dans la salle ne fonctionne pas, et il est impossible d'utiliser la cafetière a volonté car les dosettes spécifiques ne se trouvent pas dans le commerce (4 seulement sont prévues pour le séjour complet ) le gérant à bien voulu nous en donner quelques unes mais nous étions très limité pour tout le séjour.

situation exceptionnelle

appartement très bien situé, très agréable malgré le bruit de la route, et bien sécurisé. contrairement à ce qui est noté le gérant ne parle pas le Français il est difficile de se faire comprendre. de plus la clim ne fonctionnait pas dans la salle, et la cafetière est inutilisable car après les 4 dosettes offertes on n'en trouve pas dans le commerce. Heureusement le gérant a bien voulu nous en donner quelques unes mais en quantité insuffisante donc venez avec votre cafetière.
