Mieszkanie na piętrze bardzo wygodne, z salonu widok na jezioro i ogród gospodarzy, łazienka z pralką, Śniadania serwowane przez gospodarzy, typowo włoskie - na słodko, w przydomowym ogrodzie z widokiem na jezioro. Miejsce parkingowe przy domu na ulicy.

Nocując w tym miejscu trzeba nastawić się na poruszanie się po Menaggio samochodem, w przeciwnym wypadku dojście do centrum czyli nadbrzeża, przystani promów czy dworca autobusowego stromymi uliczkami, schodami, a nawet jezdnią bez chodnika. Jest możliwe ale trochę czasu i siły zajmuje.

Eleanor is the gracious host of this 'straight out of a fairy tale' house doubling up as a B&B. Photos of this listing do not do justice to the overall charm of this B&B. The accomodation was very spacious (Living room, kitchen, bedroom & toilet), fully furnished with beautiful paintings and furniture and has a beautiful view of Lake Como. A big thumbs up for the overall cleanliness and hygiene.  It is located at Croche, which is up around the hills about 2 kms from Menaggio bus stop. Bus C12 takes you to and fro. Eleanor picked us from our bus stop at Menaggio. She helped us enormously with all the local information required to travel within Como and also dropped us to locations when required. Her husband Adriano and son David ensured we had a pleasant stay. On the morning of check-out, Adriano was kind enough to drop us off to our bus-stop while commuting to his workplace. (Future guests, do bear in mind that these courtesy rides were upon the host's discretion & schedule. We fondly consider the same as favours and not part of the package)  The property has a beautiful garden with  seating arrangements to dine as well as relax. 2 pets, a cat and a dog (Pongo) give you some furry company so you don't miss your pets while away from home. Spending time around Pongo and watching him do his zoomies was heartwarming.  Breakfast arrangements were nice and timed flexibly as per our schedule.  Besides the sumptuous fare of sandwiches, cheese, tea, coffee, fruits, juices etc, Eleanor specially baked some  amazing scones & muffins for us, the aromas of which still waft through our happy memories. Dear Eleanor, Adriano & David, thank you again for everything. We hope to revisit Lake Como soon and spend a longer time of leisure at 'Balcone Fiorito'.

Everything was good. Nothing to dislike.

The view was very nice, hosts were very friendly and helpful, everything was clean and neat.

Great hosts. Away from the crowds. Lovely garden, breakfast and friendly dog.

The room has everything you need. The breakfast is perfect and the owners are really welcoming.

location

all good

Good location up the hill. Nice view. Friendly and helpful staff.

Water shortage. No airconditioning. An invasion of wasps in the garden, making it impossible to sit outside. A dog.

Nice place, good breakfast, great view!
