Bel emplacement

Petit appartement dans un endroit typique , sympathique et avec une très belle vue sur le Lac de Côme. Il manque rien pour passer un petit séjour par contre l’appartement est un peu trop chargé et le deuxième lit pas très confortable (matelas). La propriétaire nous a bien renseigné et conseillé sur les resto et lieux à visiter.
