Anguillara Sabazia is a quaint and beautiful town. The location is superb - near the lake with the added bonus of taxis able to come as close as 30 meters from the apartment. The area is very quiet at night. The heating is excellent. The host Beatrice is quick to respond on whatsApp.

The WiFi password is made of 24 digits and letters of two sizes and is written on a blackboard. Alas, two digits and one letter are intentionally blurred (probably so no passersby copies the password because it is clearly visible from the window when open). Maybe the host isn't aware a 3 minute call or a visit to her WiFi provider will allow her to change the password to a shorter and easier password (I have 3 devices and it took me 20 minutes to connect them). The cloth on the window adhesive with a small sticker and plastic hook fell and so it somewhat compromised the feeling of privacy though foot traffic in this part of town is not frequent. There is a guide to the apartment posted on the entrance door. It is ugly and it includes archaic and strange rules, i.e. no unregistered visitors allowed to enter the home and a 30 Euro penalty if the kitchen is not left clean. These rules are absurd and not enforceable but they hint at a general attitude (an apartment is not only 4 walls. It makes one feel uncomfortable). The kitchen lacks a knife for cutting fruits and vegetables (there is only a large knife for cutting meat). Finally, the bed mattress is not optimal. Plastic or nylon fabric is on the top of around 85% of the mattress. I suspect that the mattress was arranged wrong and the bottom part is at the top (the other side probably doesn't have this synthetic material). I recommend the host dedicates a few hours of her time to check and fix such issues so to make guest's stay more pleasant.

Posizione ottima, a due passi dal lago

Dato che il periodo in questione è quasi invernale c'è stato un po' di freddo in casa, soprattutto durante la notte. Comunque negli armadi erano presenti dei piumoni che hanno contribuito a rendere la nottata comunque piacevole

The house is very comfortable and clean, we would stay again if in the area. The kitchen had all that we needed to cook and eat at the house. Lots of space for two adults and a teenager. The balcony is small but perfect to sit and relax in the evening. Host is very quick to reply to messages and questions, she also booked our taxi back to the airport for us. Her help on finding out about local buses etc was great. The location of the house is fantastic, just a few seconds walk to the lake, a good restaurant right next door and a short walk up the stairs to the old town.

It gets very hot in August as there are only fans and no air conditioning. The fans worked fine for us but others may find it difficult to sleep.

Wonderful location, close to the lake, only a short walk to the shore. It was perfect for taking my kids swimming and fishing in the lake for the weekend.

Too hot for sleeping well in August, no AC.
