    Wonderful host. Lovely modern room but vintage snippets. Could not fault it

    I probably would have preferred a small fridge in my room rather than going to the communal area.

    Property response:

    Thank you so much, Megan! I'm so glad you had a pleasant stay. I understand that a refrigerator in the room can be more convenient, but it's often noisier, which is why we chose to have a shared one in the breakfast room, which is located just outside the rooms. I wish you a wonderful trip to Sardinia! Viola

    This is an amazing place to stay in Cagliari. It’s easily accessible by bus, and right next to Villanova, a beautiful area of Cagliari. But by far the best this about this accommodation is Viola, the host. She was so warm and helpful, recommending things to do around the city, assisting with any thing needed, recommending wonderful restaurants and bars, and even lending us equipment to bring to the beach! I would advise anyone coming to Cagliari to stay here.

    Property response:

    Thank you so much guys! You were wonderful guests. See you next time Viola

    If I could give 20 stars, I absolutely would! Our stay at this beautiful accommodation was simply perfect. Viola is an amazing woman – incredibly welcoming, kind, and always ready to help. The apartment was spotless, cozy, and decorated with great taste. It felt like home from the moment we arrived. The location is excellent – not far from the city center, with bus stops very close by, making everything easily accessible. Viola made sure we felt comfortable, gave us great tips on where to go, and truly made our experience unforgettable.Thank you for everything Viola! We will definitely come back again!

    Dear Cristina, you're a breath of fresh air. I'm so grateful to have you here! A thank you isn't enough; I'm sure we'll see each other again! A big hug for you and your mom! V.

    The place is comfortable and newly renovated, well located with free public parking nearby. The greatest part however is the endless tips and advice of Viola, our host, who pointed us to the best places to eat and drink in Cagliari. 10/10 would recommend.

    "Thank you" is not enough. Lovely place, very close to the main market streets, with a lovely hostess who makes you feel at home. Very warm welcome, plus she was so happy to fulfill our needs for a taxi to the airport, a towel for the beach, etc. There is breakfast, tea and coffee at your disposal at any time at the entrance. Comfortable bed and beautifully decorated room in a building on a quiet street. I highly recommend it and we will definitely come back.

    Property response:

    Galya, simply thank you from the bottom of my heart. Believe me, I welcome all my guests equally, but then it is you who make the difference. I think you know that when you return you will not feel at home, but you will be at home. See you ❣️

    Viola was super helpful and hospitable. She helped us map out the best route of the city and she let us store our bags before the room was even ready. The room itself was spacious and extremely clean. The shower was also amazing.

    Luxury can be furnishings or services or simply the kindness of people. This accommodation definitely scores with the latter! We felt completely at home.

    Very cozy and homely accommodation, where stylish furnishings and spotless cleanliness awaited us. We travel a lot, but this level of cleanliness is rare. The bed is very comfortable, the coffee maker is great! The host is very kind and helpful. It is probably difficult to find a better one in downtown Calgary.

    Viola is a really friendly, nice, and helpful person. She assisted us with public transport, taxis, city taxes, and even pointed out on the map the must-see places in Cagliari. We spent five days at the guest house and were very happy with our choice. The room was perfect for two people—very clean, comfortable, and equipped with a private bathroom. The breakfast was also delicious and served on a lovely terrace. If we ever return to Cagliari, we’ll definitely choose Viola's guest house again.

    This is a wonderful, family run Boutique hotel. We receive a very warm welcome and great service throughout our stay. The Guest House is well positioned to access all local attractions and get around the city, and is ideal for someone looking to immerse themselves completely within the local environment. Breakfast and amities were excellent. Our hosts were lovely, engaging and provided great suggestions as to where to go, what to see and where to eat. I would thoroughly recommend Contus Rétro Guest House and would be very happy to return!

    In one word - delighted. Precise instructions for check-in. A beautifully decorated room with a bathroom with all the necessities. The homemade breakfast is excellent and is served on a wonderful terrace. The terrace is a pleasant surprise and has been transformed into a real small garden. The owner, Viola, pays special attention to details, and as a lover of beauty, that was an added bonus for me. If I ever return to Cagliari, I will definitely choose the same accommodation. Thank you for your kindness. You are a true inspiration.
