Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
the unit reeked of mildew, and there was mold growing in a couple of places. unit was poorly outfitted as well. also the electrical outlets are outdated with no adapters available. no blankets or bed pad on bed. so room was cold. all around a poor experience. The property manager was uncommunicative and went silent after after a refund was requested. to date no one has responded.
Instructions for check in were detailed and we had no problems. We were able to find a parking spot in the garage but be warned there are only a few and it's first come first serve. The view from the apartment is breathtaking. The location is in Fiumelatte, a 20-ish minute walk to Varenna which we were happy to do every day.
The apartment amenities are basic but fine and comfortable and clean.
My only real complaint is there was no Wifi network as advertised. And I did not hear back when I emailed about it.
But we loved our stay here.
Nicely appointed, fairly roomy, and great parking. Verandah with view. Interesting mountain stream onsite.
- NOT in Varenna. This is 20 min away in Fiumelatte
- There is NO Internet, so ensure you have local cell data
- No window coverings, so you may be waking with the sunrise
The apartment itself was nice but the location was disappointing and very misleading. It is in Fiumelatte not Varenna. Fiumelatte is a very isolated place not on the Eurail pass list or the main train route. There are no shops at all for getting snacks or supplies.
The patio is not private as it looks in the photos and it is not directly on the water as it also looks in photos.
The pullout bed was not a real bed and the room was extremely noisey at night.
There was no wi-fi as advertised. The maintenance person offered another wi-fi access code but the reception was so poor it couldn't be accessed.
The TV could not be plugged in as it required an extension cord. The only extension cord was also needed in the kitchen for the jug and microwave which was impractical.
I would not recommend if you want somewhere with something to do. It would be a great place if you didn't want contact with the world.
moisissures dans l'appartement, des insectes dans les poêles fournies, humidité excessive et difficile à évacuer. La vue de la terrasse est spectaculaire toutefois
