This is one of those places where you walk in the door, and grin to yourself and think “wow!”. It’s a gorgeous, spacious modern apartment with floor to ceiling views across Merano and the valley. It was clean, and Markus the host showed us around with obvious pleasure and pride. It’s a steepish walk into Merano, but doable even for our elderly parents, and there are some very nice restaurants an easy flat walk away. One thing to be aware is that the second bedroom (that can be set up as a double or a twin) uses the toilet near the entry, and needs to share the en suite bathroom; and you should definitely pay attention when Markus explains the light switches! Overall, this was a very memorable and dramatic place to stay, and having a parking place right next to the house was incredibly useful!
