Italianway - Torno

Yes parking is difficult but once you are parked you don't ever need to move your car as you have direct access to a ferry port and can travel to virtually any town that borders como di lago. Absolutely incredible experience seeing this beautiful and quaint corner of the world I highly recommend this stay for anyone who wants to have an authentic Italian experience

Good location BUT, Terrible apartment While the location of the apartment (Tremezzo) is convenient, situated 1 minute away (walking) from Torno's port and 4 minutes away from the city center, there was a lot of disappointing problems: 1. Reaching the place was a hassle. No cars reaches anywhere near the apartment. You need to walk along with your luggage for at least 4 minutes. (including stairs) 2. The owner did not meet us, he just sent us few VERY unclear directions through WhatsApp. We called him and he was able to direct us to the apartment after at least 10 to 15 minutes. At some point we felt that we are playing "Escape the Room". (Believe me you don't want that while carrying your luggage after a long flight) 3. Extremely high humidity in the apartment. On the second day of our stay, the bedsheets and the bed itself turned out wet, we had to blow-dry the cushions with a hairdryer to be able to sleep. Also, the overall smell of the apartment is not good, too humid. 4. The bathroom is old and doesn't feel clean. In addition to that, it's very small, and the shower is somehow open, so all the water goes out on the ground. 5. We asked the owner at 8:30 PM for some extra toilet papers, extra towels, and a replacement for the wet pillow cases (mentioned in point 3), he said that it's late and they cannot provide it until next day. 6. A lot of weird insects lives inside the apartment! 7. The couch was not very clean. To conclude, stay away from this apartment.

En skøn lejlighed, kun med bittesmå anmærkninger Vi havde et skønt ophold i lejligheden og Luca der tog imod os var meget hjælpsom. Vi var der i april og underetagen var meget kold og havde svært ved at blive varmet helt op, men der var mulighed for at sætte mere varme på, med elektriske varmere. Renligheden var fin, men der lå beskidte klude fra rengøringen i rengøringsskabet og støvsugeren fungerede ikke, så vi kunne ikke selv gøre rent, da vi den ene dag havde brug for det og det var lidt ærgerligt for den samlede oplevelse. Heldigvis var det samlede indtryk af området, byen, lejligheden og den venlige vært mere end godt, og vi vil til enhver tid booke denne lejlighed igen, næste gang vi skal til Torno.

Wonderful hosts - Luca was generous with his time and helpful suggestions. As with any Italian adventure, we had a short power outage but it didn’t dampen the spirit of our 2 weeks in Torno and the surrounding area.

The location was quiet until early morning due to construction immediately around the building. Commutation proved a bit complicated due to cell service and we struggled to be able to get access to the area place. Plan for a fairly steep walk down and up to the road as it is on the shore of a lake.

The town was practically deserted while we were there. We didnt realize when booking that most things would be shut down during this time. Also, the fact that the ferry boat dock was under construction and we couldn’t get a ferry made it very difficult to get around. We were sort of disappointed in this. Nothing was open nearby. The rental unit was wonderful, however access to it was VERY DIFFICULT …this should be mentioned to people because it could make a HUGE difference in if they are physically able to stay there or not.
