The apartment was, once again, fabulous. Great views, great location, we walked everywhere. And the new air conditioning was wonderful! We have not found any other apartments in Locarno with a built-in A/C, and this was definitely welcome. Beds were super-comfortable, bathroom very nice. We will come back!

Very easy check in process even though we were arriving later than planned. Apartment was very clean and spacious. Lots of room for a family of 4. Great view from the balcony and the air conditioning is a definite plus if staying in the summer. It made sleeping very comfortable even though it was hot outside. Overall a great experience!

The apartment is very central, less than 10 minutes from the train station and Piazza Grande, and just 2 minutes from the lakeside. It has a well-equipped kitchen, 3 beds and 2 sofas which can be slept on and 2 balconies from which you can see the lake. Nice big living room. It's on the 5th floor so very glad it has a lift! The only slight downside is that the road that goes past the apartment block is a main route into town and there's a lot of traffic on it throughout the day from very early in the morning which can be heard with the windows open, but that's a minor downside. Contact with the host and agent was good and they were helpful in arranging for the key to be made available as we had a very late arrival time. Overall it's a perfect place for a family or group of friends to stay when visiting Locarno.
