"L'accueil et la disponibilité des propriétaires est appréciable (nous vous conseillons la visite de la propriété avec eux). Le logement est très agréable et reste relativement frais bien que dépourvu de clim. La vue est magnifique depuis la terrasse et la piscine. Pour info il n'y a pas de volets aux fenêtres, portes et velux, mais des rideaux permettent d'assombrir un peu. Nous vous conseillons donc vivement ce logement imprégné de son passé viticole et restauré avec beaucoup de goût. Merci...

Hotel Isola Bella

8/10 Good

"The view and the hospitality. I picked the hotel for location directly across from Isola Bella. Our room was directly facing the island. I love the older Italian decor also. Yes, it needs maintenance but everything was good. Staff were particularly friendly and accommodating. Close to fununcular, beach, restaurants and stores. We did not use bus but the stop was in front of the hotel. Breakfast was also very good."
