    Not a negative at all, but notice that this B&B is away from the beaten path. It’s a compact room with a compact bathroom. And it’s a bit of a drive/walk to get to.

    Great location. Beautiful view across Lago di Como. Excellent host that caters for all your needs. Very good breakfast. Nice authentic building.

    The owners were responsive and helpful. Ricardo prepared beautiful breakfasts and even drove us to the train station as taxis tend not to want to come up the mountain. The location was quiet but had the most exquisite view of the lake. An out of the way gem that we were fortunate to find.

    Everything was stunning nothing that we didnt like

    The local feel to the b and b. Very warm welcome from the hosts and a breath taking view from the room. The breakfast was served by the hosts and was delicious with local food and home cooked baked products. The views from the whole place are stunning. We even got to see fireworks at night from the room. It was very special and a place we will definately return to

    Nothing.

    The B&B was wonderful. Breakfast each day prepared by Francisco was excellent. The room was delightful with views in two directions overlooking the lake. Enrico and Monica who operate the bar and restaurant were very hospitable and the food and service impeccable.

    Fan is not properly working so very hot during the night, especially in the middle of August. Bed is quite small and not super comfortable.

    Great and beautiful location with an amazing view on the lake. Super nice, welcoming and helpful host. Charming room. I would definitely recommend the place.

    What a beautiful property! The family was so kind, both at the bnb and the restaurant. They were so accommodating and helpful in answering my questions. Breakfast was also very delicious and they were understanding about my food allergies.

    Such a beautiful place to stay! Yummy Breakfast and coffee in the morning and the host are so accommodating. My husband and I even had an early train back to Milan and they planned out our entire route to make it to the airport in time by using the train. Don’t use a train where we’re from, so we were worried about getting there on time. Also they gave us great recommendations around como and the surrounding towns! We used the fanicular everyday to get to como from the B&B and paid for a week pass (very affordable) then took a bus to the surrounding cities like tremezzo and bellagio. My only advice is to get a car so that you will have more freedom around lake como especially if you go in the summer. We went end of September and it was still rather busy getting a ferry and bus. We will def be booking this b&b again in the future! Thanks for everything!

    The room had an amazing view over Como lake. Was very clean and lovely decorated. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The bathroom was well equipped. The breakfast was delicious with home made products. The landlords are very friendly and helpful. Was a pleasure spending the weekend at the property. The property is very easy reachable from the Como Lago train station with the funicular to Brunate (last departure during week is 22:30, during the weekend is 24) and then a small walk. There is also parking space near the house.
