Tutto perfetto!
La casa era pulitissima e molto grande, la posizione è ottima e tutto sommato tranquilla nonostante sia in zona centrale. Molti supermercati e negozi di alimentari vicini, in 10 minuti a piedi si arriva alla Stazione Centrale.

Super Lage, viel Platz!
Der Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft war sehr schön. Die Lage ist super! Alles ist so wie auf den Bildern zu sehen. Vorallem morgens das frühstücken auf einer der drei Balkone war traumhaft. Das einzige Manko ist, das es nachts sehr laut ist, da die Unterkunft in direkter Umgebung einer Hauptstraße ist. Aber das kann man mit Ohrstöpsel beheben! Besonders hervorzuheben ist der nette und unkomplizierte Kontakt zu Guiseppe. Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit!

Haben uns wohl gefühlt
Es ist immer die Frage, was man erwartet. Wir wollten Platz, Nähe zum Bahnhof, fußläufig zur Innenstadt untergebracht sein. Diese Ansprüche waren aller erfüllt. Wir hatten super Kontakt zum Vermieter, mussten auf Grund von Familienproblemen später anreisen, alles kein Problem. Hatten einen entspannten Aufenthalt.

Clean and big appartment on a very good location
The appartment is located near restaurants, supermarket and metro, the walk to the city center is about 15 minutes and a beautifull sandy beach is 10 minutes by car. Very nice welcome by Guiseppe, who speeks good English. Arriverderci e Grazie!
