Nice calm atmosphere, great rooms, clean and fully equipped. We could prepare breakfast in the fully equipped kitchen, which had a selection of sweet and salty ingredients. We appreciated the free coffee machine and capsules. We really enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend it if you are looking for a nice and unique place.

The host shared some tips with us about what to visit in Lugano and where to eat. Grazie mille, mi è piaciuto molto. The area is quiet at night.

    Good breakfast and the breakfast host Katia is exceptional - her passion and hospitality is charming. The room is clean. The mattress is comfortable and supportive. It’s quiet overall - we could sometimes hear when neighbours opened or shut their doors or people upstairs pulled their chairs. But nothing too disruptive and people are generally quite respectful. The stay comes with vouchers for free public transport in the city and discount for funicular rides and museums, which is very handy.

    Very well appointed apartment, ground floor (couple of small steps to enter), felt as if newly renovated and furnished. Excellent kitchen, eating space indoors and outdoors in private courtyard. Washing machine and clothes horse, full sized fridge and freezer. spacious bathroom. In quieter part of town, but easy walk, bus to city centre. Hosts great- air-conditioning not yet installed so promptly supplied fans as weather was warming. Lots of little extras such as power plug adaptors. Great wifi.

    Probably the best view you could ever hope for and was so easy to get to town either walking or by the bus (which was super cheap) meant that you really didn’t miss out by not staying right in the centre. Monique was a great host and recommended a lido that was a bit further out of town that was fantastic

    Great location for our overnight stay en-route home after our summer vacation. The apartment is within walking distance to the centre but in quiet residential area. The apartment is new and exceptionally clean. The windows and small balcony made the apartment seem quite spacious even for a family of 4. Valentina was an excellent, welcoming and informative host. There was cold water, tea, coffee, fresh fruit and a bottle of wine waiting for us. We parked our car in the secure parking and walked everywhere.

    Riccardo is an extremely friendly and helpful host, it was very easy to get in touch with him. The apartment had everything we needed, very clean and all the amenities listed were there. The apartment's location is about 10 walking-minutes from the city center and has the private parking option, the view from the balcony was really nice. Great value for a great location.
