Apt. Stone-Lodge
Before our arrival, we received multiple emails with detailed PDFs outlining all the amenities and services offered by the property—very thorough! However, upon arrival, we ran into parking issues. The apartment is located on a pedestrian-only street, and the nearby covered parking (€44 per day!) was fully booked, as were all the paid spots along the main road (max 180 minutes, with fees). We reached out to the host, who was incredibly helpful and responsive in finding a solution. Access to the property required a code, but due to a technical glitch, we didn’t receive it until calling the host right before check-in. As described on the platform, the building sits adjacent to the mountain—so no elevator, just a narrow, steep staircase with low ceilings. Entry wasn’t easy, especially if you’re carrying luggage. The studio was small but well-equipped: kitchenware, dishes, pots, kettle, coffee machine (with complimentary pods, tea bags, and two Mozart chocolates), towels, iron and ironing board, fridge, dish soap, even salt and oil. Bathroom was tiny but clean. The window faced the quiet private street—great for peace and privacy. It’s only a 10-minute walk to the historic center, which is convenient. Overall, the charm of being tucked into the mountainside is undeniable. But honestly, the access challenges, lack of storage space, no bedside tables or shelves near the bed, and the extremely compact bathroom make it hard to justify the price point. Some things are unavoidable given the age and location—but if the value-for-money balance were better, this would be a much stronger recommendation.
