The excellence began even before check-in: the host was proactive in reaching out to provide advice. The apartment is very well-located, just a short walk to the funicular/stairs that take one into the heart of the town (one tip: unless you have mobility issues, the funicular is unnecessary; it’s an easy and charming walk). The little terrace was a perfect place for coffee and croissants in the morning and the washer/dryer, discreetly hidden behind a cabinet in the kitchen, was a tremendous benefit for us halfway through our trip. This spotlessly clean, bright, nicely-appointed apartment was perfect for us.

We had a wonderful stay here. The apt had washer and dryer and very clean. It is also walking distance to the train station. We stayed here mainly to go to Lake Como and it was an easy bus trip to Mennagio. Gea was very easy to work with and gracious. The area is very quite which is nice after being around a ton of other busy places in Switzerland and Lake Como area.

Great location and Views, Views, Views.
The condo looks to be just renovated to the highest level and attention to detail. All of the windows swing open to enjoy the views and weather. Easy walk to train station and town. Gea is a pleasure to communicate with.

Nice view and good location
First time to Lugano. Moved my daughter into Franklin University which is close. I also like the close proximity to the train station and center of town. There are serious up hill steps from the center of town to train station and apartment. So, make sure to investigate the funicular in lieu of walking up the hill.
View from the apartment is very nice. The apartment is clean and perfect for our use.

The property was extremely clean and very comfortable. The location could not be better. You're a block from the train station as well as the funicular going into town.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gea’s place. The apartment was very well equipped, very clean and plenty of utensils. Sparkling water views from the balcony in the morning and lovely light over the hills in the evening. A five minute walk to the lake and town, but 15 mins back up the hill!! 😁 We would recommend a stay at Gea’s place. If you have SUV the garage is small and you would struggle to get it in (narrow). All in all really pleased and looking forward returning.

sehr geschmacksvoll eingerichteten Wohnung mit super Aussicht
Wir haben die paar Tage sehr genossen in der sehr sauberen und sehr geschmacksvoll eingerichteten Wohnung. Der Ausblick war wirklich herrlich, da hat uns der Strassenlärm überhaupt nicht gestört. In wenigen Minuten ist man mitten in Lugano, für uns war es ein perfekter Aufenthalt
