I give this property a five-star, which I normally never do. The host Guiseppi is amazing. The apartment is in the best part of Padova in the main square with the astronomical clock. It is within walking distance of everything in the city. All bedrooms are at the back and hence no noise from the square. Wifi and aircon worked flawlessly. Lots of good shops and restaurants right below.

Giuseppe saved the visit. Things started out poorly as Padua shuts down in August. The parking garage he sent us to was closed when we arrived. Since it was in the limited access area, we were now subject to a big fine. Giuseppe called the garage to get us a space and the police to prevent the fine. When we returned to the garage, he was waiting for us. He helped with our luggage the short distance to the lodging, giving us tips and info the whole way. At the lodging, he greeted us with a bottle of the local wine and a fridge full of cold water. There was also plenty of tourist information to fully explore the town. Giuseppe then worked to get us dinner reservations at his favorite restaurant. Unfortunately, his favorite was closed during our visit but the place he sent us was fantastic. The lodging itself was wonderful. It was decorated with beautiful antiques but had an airiness thanks to the high ceilings. Sitting on the second floor with a balcony looking over the square, we saw the bustle of the market during the day and the restaurants set up in the evening. We had three large sleeping rooms -- two with large double beds and the third with two twin beds. There were two baths -- one with a bathtub the other with a shower. The air conditioning worked well which was important with daytime temps in the 90's. The kitchen was fully equipped and there was a washer and dryer. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely go back.

Exquisite apartment. Giuseppe is amazing. Always available to help with anything. Truly beautiful apartment. With everything you could need.Everything has been thought of. Situated on piazza dei Signori. Supermarkets and local fruit and meat arcade 10 - 20 metres away. Can walk everywhere. While away the evenings on the terrace watching all the activity in the piazza. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much Giuseppe.

We had the best stay at Giuseppe’s appartment. He was amazing, told us about the city, the landmarks, the stores, the restaurants, he made a reservation for our arrival night, really good food! And he also arranged for a garage as his appartment is in the ztl area. It was absolutely perfect! I definitely recommend this appartment! It’s a hidden treasure. Thank you Giuseppe! Please come and see us in Montreal! Ciao!

We had a wonderful time in Guiseppe’s apartment. First of all, Guiseppe is great to work with, very helpful and informative. We were a little confused with the directions, so he found us on the busy square and led us to the apartment. He then gave us a tour and explained everything about the apartment. He gave us dinner recommendations and walked my husband there to show the way so that I could stay with our tired kids. Then he checked in during the stay (via message) to make sure things were all good. The apartment is spacious with great views out the balcony. It is equipped with a washer and dryer, which were very helpful. The town itself is very cool, with lots of restaurants and shops. The buildings are beautiful. You feel like you’re in the middle of a hopping Italian town, but it doesn’t feel touristy. The train ride to Venice is maybe 15 minutes. All in all, we had a great stay in Padova and would be happy to return to Giuseppe’s apartment!

We were greeted by our host upon arrival and loved the apartment. It was spotlessly clean and had every amenity. We were supported by our host throughout the stay and were sorry to leave. Well done.

This was a great stay for our week in Padova. The apartment is very nice, well appointed and clean. The beds were comfortable and the linens were clean. Beautiful views out of the front terraces overall;ooking the square where you can witness how community squares are utilized in Italy; commercial vendors selling all manner of clothing during the day and then that is all removed and the restaurants and bars set up tables for the evening, truly something to see! There are no shortage of osterias right outside the front door and fine dining is all around within a 5 to 10 minute walk. You can truly get a taste of the real Italy and the local culture in this location. Guiseppe is a great host and communicates well. We would stay here again in the future!

We loved staying in Giuseppe’s flat, it overlooks the Piazza Signori and is really at the very heart of Padova. It is furnished with charm in a way that can only be Italian. Antiques that felt like a family home yet not so ‘prescious’ that you were afraid to use them. It really felt like home. It overlooks the square where you can enjoy joining the students in the evening, or stroll across to buy a Grom ice cream. If you are feeling less sociable you can sit on the balcony and watch life stroll by. It is busy in the evenings but the bedrooms at the back of the flat are quiet. During the day there is one of the many markets in the square, in fact everything is just a short stroll away. We came to celebrate our daughter’s graduation and I cannot think of a more perfect place to have stayed. Really 5 stars is not enough!
