Appartamenti Il Glicine

The apartment and its location were great, and the hostess was lovely. Getting around does mean having a car, though, and there were lots of yapping dogs. In May the balcony didn't get much sun, but that might be welcome in summer.

The owners were friendly, and the kitchen had plenty of supplies. The location was handy for supermarkets, bars, and restaurants. I did miss having hangers for clothes or jackets in the bedrooms. The balcony was cozy and the barbecue was nice, but the twin-room mattresses felt too soft and a little uncomfortable for my taste.

With the city center, bars, restaurants, and supermarket all an easy walk away, the location was great, and there was plenty of free parking. The heat was hard to deal with during a scorching week, though. There was no air conditioning, as had already been specified, and the fan the owner gave us didn't help much. The mattress was also very uncomfortable.

We stayed in the ground-floor apartment, which had a veranda that stayed well ventilated and was furnished nicely inside and out. It was about 400 meters from the pedestrian area of Villasimius, close to a great bar and two supermarkets, but away from the bustle. Everything was very clean, and when we had a small problem the friendly, available owners sorted it out promptly. The house stays cool, so air conditioning might not be needed. Mosquito nets would be useful, though, as would a couple of bikes. A very good place overall.
