Summary of reviews
Beautiful and comfortable apartment in a prime location, with modern amenities, a great host, and easy access to attractions and transportation. Highly recommended.
5.0 / 5.0
Good central location, very short walk to the lake, shops and cafes.
Easy 12 minute walk from train station.
Apartment was very clean, tidy, well equipped and a comfortable bed.
Easy access to apartment as was able to watch YouTube video.
Only bad point is that there was no mention on website regarding the 57 steps to climb, especially when trying to carry 2 cases and being over 60.
However would stay again

Stayed here July 1-6, 2024. Apartment is really clean. The 50+ stairs to get up to were a bit of a workout. Location is centrally located. 10 minutes to water, 10 minutes to the main train station. I gave only 4 stars on the check in process because there was another group "the travelers" involved in the check in process, and there was a little last minute confusion with how to get into the unit requiring passport pictures (could have been my fault for not reading all of the correspondence), but nothing too traumatic. Bed was comfortable. Lots of closet/drawer space. A/C worked well. Definitely go to the bakery in the building for coffee and croissants. If ever in Como again, I would stay here again. Maria is a great host, and helped us quickly when we had questions.

Fantastic, comfortable apartment in the heart of Como. Short walk from train station with bags and close to everything. Very comfortable bed with all the mod cons in the apartment, including washing machine. Only downside was the stairs, we didn’t find that a problem but others might. Oh and it was very quiet which was appreciated after some long days. Maria was a great host, answering our questions promptly and looking after us, thanks Maria, greatly appreciated. The check in process could have been made easier but apart from that we enjoyed all Como had to offer. The funicular is well worth the ride and the view is breathtaking. We would not hesitate to stay in this apartment again and highly recommend it to others. Kind regards Rhonda and Wayne

I could go on and on but to keep it short and to the point, it was perfect for us. Had everything we needed.
Great location, good bed, clean, roomy, modern, and great host. Can’t go wrong.
The only potential issue is the stairs. Not an issue for us but it’s on the 3rd floor so carrying luggage up and down could be an issue.
If we were to visit Como in the future , I would stay here again without question.

Nice clean apartment in central como, close to a lot of things. Only downside is it should’ve been described as an apartment for 4 people, the sofa bed is not comfortable at all, makes terrible noise for each movement. The apartment has sound proofing issue, toilet flushing is extremely loud. Fridge makes noise all night long. You can hear the breathing of the other people in the other room…

Thank you Maria. Your apartment was perfect for our stay in Como. It had everything we needed, was clean, comfortable and well equipped. A perfect central location to explore Como, the lake and lots of villages around the lake. I would recommend to anyone wanting a central apartment. Thank you again. X

Newly renovated 3rd floor apartment that was very comfortable. Located in the heart of the city it was very easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. Maria is a superior host and helped us get into and out of the apartment, she was very accomodating. One warning, it's on the 3rd floor and there is not an elevator. Not a problem unless you can't climb stairs. The kitchen is well equipped and we cooked at home one night. Nice espresso coffee machine, we bought a box of pods and had fresh hot cappuccino every morning. Maria is a great communicator and WILL respond to your emails or texts.

The property was in a great location and very easy to find. It was as advertised and very clean and organized. Maria met us at check in and even provided a couple of great dinner references

Exceptionally clean, comfortable, and attractive. Great location in the heart of Como, but on a quiet street. I sure hope the owner gets to stay there sometimes.

Beautiful, spotless, spacious, and well-appointed apartment. Walking distance to train, boat dock, shops, and restaurants. Maria was very easy to communicate with beforehand so, check in was a breeze. We didn't want to leave.

Lovely, perfectly located apartment
Maria's apartment was perfectly situated in Como for easy access to everything including the trains and ferry's. There were adorable restaurants, cafes and shops all around the location. Maria was so nice and friendly - she offered some wonderful suggestions on where to eat and what to see and even drove us to the train station in the morning of our departure. The apartment itself is super nice and updated and comes with everything you may need, in including a top-floor view of the apartments and hills. The bed was the comfiest we had during our time travelling through Italy and the bathroom is nice and big.

PERFECT LOCATION
We could not have been more central to where we wanted to be! And we could not have asked for a nicer host, Maria! She was considerate, helpful and answered all our questions. Amazing experience overall!

Great location
15 min walk from the train and 10 min to the lake to catch ferry to Bellagio or other stops. Flexibility with check-in/out was great.

Como Apartment
Como is beautiful. The apartment was small, but well designed and decorated. Maria was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone.

Como convenience
There were a lot of stairs but so much old town charm that we just loved it. We could be in the center of the old town in just five minutes (once we learned our way around) but getting lost was half the fun. Wandering the narrow alleys and two different dinners at a Pronobis were a joy. Maria was so helpful to us and couldn’t have been nicer, helping us with transportation to and from the airport made the trip from Malpensa and to Milan so easy. We had a lot of plane schedule issues and she was right on top of our correspondence. We really appreciated her hands on helpfulness. I’d highly recommend this property.

Lovely apartment in historic Como centre
This is a lovely, comfortable and very well equipped apartment in the middle of Como’s historic quarter. The lake is only a few minutes walk away and easy transport connections by train, boat and bus are all within a ten minute walk. The owners, Maria and Marcello could not have been more helpful and welcoming. We would be more than happy to stay here again.

Excellent and charming
A wonderful apartment right in the historic centre of Como, very well equipped and cozy - we felt at home from the moment we got in. The owners are lovely, reliable and very helpful; as one can't get to the apartment by car without special permission, they picked us up and drove us back to our public parking so we didn't have any issues with our luggage. Many thanks for everything - we'll be back!
