Very comfortable stay. They were very helpful when I couldn't find the property. They sent videos before-hand on how to reach and other details. No hassles at all; very smooth check-in and check-out. Extremely gracious and patient. Location was great too.

Just AMAZING. The room had everything you need. It was very comfortable with a very big TV, with Tea making possibilities, minibar. The bed was very comfortable. We had a small balcony looking at the lake. Having breakfast in the morning and enjoying your coffee directly on the lake. It was like a dream. The personel was very friendly and helpful and made everything possible to have a great stay there. We even got a bottle of wine as a small present when we were leaving. Parking space is organised and near by and for free. Internet was working perfectly. The city center was 20 min walking distance. There was a delicious restaurant just under the room. (which can be a bit loud for some people. for us it was not an issue). THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT STAY. We will come back :)

The room was super clean, really welcoming, but in particular there was such a lovely welcoming scent in the air as soon as we stepped in that made us feel so comfortable. The room decor was simple but very tastefully decorated. The owner was also very very efficient in providing us with lots of indications and help to reach to the property. It was very easy to reach by car. There’s a lay-by just opposite the property where a car can be parked but im not too sure if a parking permit is needed for a longer stay. We also walked to the property from the town center and google maps took us through the narrow hilly streets so so pretty to walk by.

We really enjoyed our stay in Locarno. The host was very helpful and very kind. The room had everything we needed - nice and comfortable bed with very smooth bed sheets, little terrace and even an AC for the hot summer evenings. Furthermore the high-tech shower was a cool feature 👍 only the distance from the city centre and the the train station is a little disadvantage, but there are many buses going regularly in all directions from a stop close by.

Very clean, very central, very responsive, uncomplicated host. Although we shared bathrooms with other guests, we never had to queue and the bathrooms were always very clean. All other guests were considerate, even if we shared the beautiful, sunny balcony. We could also store our luggage in the property for a few hours after checking out. It was the most welcoming accomodation during our one week travels throguh Switzerland. Highly reccomendable.

The room was big, airy, and clean. There was a kitchen, but we did not access it. The bathroom was convenient and clean. A very good night while having our last day in the Locarno Festival.

    Nanda and her husband are such lovely hosts! They gave us tips on what to do around and they were so kind and helpful. The room is very cozy and comfortable. You have for yourself a little garden with a table and two chairs, a little heaven! The location is between Locarno and Ascona. It's perfect if you wanna visit both. Highly recommend this!
