    Great location - if you don’t mind the bells chiming away!

    The machine for coffee and tea was in the public part shared with the others rooms. However, there were on arrival just 3 plastic cups of small size available, no cups for the big size. The machine had the option for small and for big size fillings. Those small size cups were used up over the weekend and were not replaced till Thuesday. We managed with normal cups from our room. The water cooker in our room did not work.

    We appreciated that we could enter the appartment a few hours before the official check-in. The location on the main cathedral square was perfect.

    See bad news / good news above.

    We didn't end up staying here, not by choice, but also NOT the fault of management! The morning before we arrived in Como, there was a fire in the building containing our apartment and we learned on arrival that our lodging was uninhabitable! We appreciated that the landlord, a multi-city management company, had an on-call local representative, however, who was very responsive, as was Booking.com's customer service. Between them they found us an alternative lodging, not quite as well located, but less expensive, and adequate for our purposes. Great customer service overall, given the extraordinary circumstances.

    It was on the other side, so it was not loud, the building is the center of Como. Very good air conditioner, TV has Netflix, fast Wifi.

    the overall service location and facilities doesn’t justify the cost of the room. yes. it’s just a room afterall. and even if it’s in the center of the walled city of Como… the cost is still too high. the floor isn’t that clean and they do not offer slippers so you need to bring your own. the pins to the entrance is a bit challenging to insert specially for the first time. it took me 3times to finally open the door. the faucet sort of leak. the balcony. the balcony is almost just a word. so don’t expect too much when they say there’s a balcony. and the view isn’t of the curch/duomo. we got room 4 family room.. and just don’t get your hopes too much. if you need a room to sleep.. and a decent bathroom you’ll have that. i just think that the room is well presented on the khottos and even the descriptions depicts a very ideal room to stay. it kind of put your expectations a couple of notch higher —- justifying the price also—— and will disappoint you upon arriving to the actual room.

    location wise one of the best within the old city walls of Como.

    We stayed 2 nights here and were only provided half a toilet roll and when we asked for more they told us to buy more, that they only provide the essential..which I thought was pretty riddiculous that they don't even give you 1 full toilet roll for that short of a stay.

    Clean room, with a good aircon. Great location, close to everything.

    The room was not spacious. We hardly moved in that tiny room. The bed was not comfortable. Consequently, I think the guest house was overpriced for what it offered.

    İt is just 15 minutes walk away from Como San Giovanni train station. Less than 10 minutes to Como Nord Lago train station. There is a kettle and refrigerator in the room. It is self-check property. The day you arrive they send you instructions on how to get into the apartment and the room. It is super easy. You can find some restaurants and cafes around the guest house.

    A bit slow response in booking.com chat (8-12 hours), but they provide phone number and answer to call, but if you guest come from abroad, you not always can call in other country. The online check-in is to be made using online form, where they promise you should find on check in day the instructions, it didn't work for us, but a bit later owner provided instructions separately. Mold in the shower. Fridge didn't work at all, the temperature inside it was the same as in the room. The hair dryer stopped blowing hot air a minute after it was turned on, and began to emit a burning smell. It's obviously broken. No window in the room, just small one in bathroom. All of these could be more or less accepted by us with understanding if not the price of apartment - for 150 euros per night you will get simple room (number 4) with shower cabin with mold, with broken fridge and hair dryer. It is inadequate, and shouldn't happen...

    Excellent location, at the main square with Duomo, 5 mins by walk to the lake, 10-15 – to the train station. It's possible to leave luggage after check out in the corridor. Big smart TV. Despite it's located at the central square, the sound from it didn't reach the room. Bathroom is spacious. Overall, clean room despite empty bottle in the safe.

    This is something that cannot be avoided in an old building: the rooms are quite dark, and this is one of the oldest buildings in Como. The room has two big windows but as the view is blocked by other buildings, you do not get much daylight. However, just step outside and you are on the main square and can enjoy the beautiful city.

    The location is brilliant, just across the Duomo. Luckily the bells don´t start before 8 a.m. The room is small, yet very nicely done, the bed was very comfortable (which is so so rare in Italy, usually the beds are hard as a rock), the tv is big, the bathroom is big and modern. The shower is very good, but since it has no handset, it is difficult to shower without getting your hair wet. There is a coffee maker in the hallway, which is great and a small fridge in the room. I was missing glasses for water in the room, but the mugs did the job. If you bring any food to the room, make sure to bring your own spoon/fork/knife as there are none available. The only table+chairs are on the little balcony. No lift, but easy staircase. The main station S.Giovanni (long distance trains and to Milano Centrale) is about 15 min walk away, easy route. The harbor is 5 min walk away, allow some time to queue for tickets, especially the speed boats were crowded even early May.

    The apartment has a very small balcony with a view of the back of another building. The room was very small and the bed quite uncomfortable. The rooms were not at all soundproof and we could hear our neighbour coughing consistently. Our neighbour was smoking often and the whole apartment smelt of smoke.

    The location was great, coffee was provided and the instructions for check in were quite clear

    My room (a double room) looked nothing like the photos and there was something like a church in front of the hotel so we could hear the bell every single hour which was a bit annoying.
