Dimora De Mauro

Loved the layout of the apartment and the beautiful terrace

Needed some updating; a coat of paint. Coffee would have been nice—there was a coffee pot and kitchen was well stocked with utensils. Bedroom very noisy from traffic and people congregating just outside the window, which was left open and we were not able to close properly.

Central location, quiet clean and big apartment.

The bed and the couch were not comfortable. The furniture were really old, the fridge was problematic and needed change and the iron was old and rusty.

Dimora di Mauro was a very pleasant place to stay, with the apartments ranged round an attractive courtyard with plants and tables. Our apartment, No 110, was spacious, clean and quiet, well insulated from the noise of the busy street outside. We were only there for 2 nights and did not do any cooking but the place seemed reasonably equipped, with a dishwasher and large fridge-freezer. It was convenient having 2 bathrooms, one of which doubles as a laundry room, with a washing machine and a curious, plastic Belfast sink contraption on wheels for hand washes - handy if you only need to wash a few things. Quite a few restaurants close by, one next door, another just across the street and a grill place up the road. The staff were friendly and very helpful. They swiftly had the double bed converted into 2 singles for us and a defective bedside lamp was whisked away and replaced with a working one.

The only criticism is that the lighting is rather dreary, with flat ceiling lights and only one small table lamp; the light for reading is very poor. Would definitely benefit from a couple of nice, large table lamps or standing lamps. Also there is no lighting over the kitchen work counter, so it would be quite dark if you were cooking; under-cupboard strip-lighting would make a lot of difference.

The best thing about this property is location, its close to everything, and that you could do some cooking if you wish. After the first night i was offered to change to a 1st floor appartment which was way better and I felt much more relaxed. 2 bottles of water in the room and an iron, that was very important for me ( which is also why i picked this propery)

On my arrival i got allocated to stay on the groud floor and it was wayy to specious and did not feel anything cosy, no proper window views and close to the outside door, At night i could not sleep because the the doors kept being slammed loudly by the people coming back in. But thankfully, the next day when i mentioned this, i got offered to move to a different place which was way better and cosier. but one thing i noticed that all the dishes i took were dirty, not properly cleaned. TV was with 2 tv controls and i was showed how to use it yet it never really worked properly for me ( not that i dont know how to use them)
