The entire experience was magical! I would recommend this apartment to everyone. It was centrally located to everything- restaurants, shops, ferry and train station. We loved the design and decor!! Soooo Italian. Maria was charming, sweet and so accommodating. We hope to return in the future.

Snug.
Great hosts, friendly neighbors. Wonderful shower and bed. Lovely little porch to sit and watch the lake and the boats. Convenient to a market, cleaners, pharmacy and several restaurants. The only negative was the size of the unit. Ok for one person or two small people.
