 Verificata Giorgia met us at check in, showed us around and gave us excellent options of places to go, see and eat. She is the Best host we have had in all our years on Airbnb. Beautiful views from the balcony and everything you could possibly need is available in the apartment. Very comfortable bed as well.

 10.0Verificata ☺Wir wurden herzlich von Giorgia begrüßt.  Sie hat uns viele persönliche Tipps für Unternehmungen gegeben.  Zur Abkühlung lagen bei der Ankunft und der Hitze gekühlte Getränke im Kühlschrank und eine Flasche Wein zur Entspannung am Abend stand auf dem Tisch.  Die Wohnung ist komfortabel eingerichtet und es ist alles vor Ort.  Waschmittel,  Hygiene-Spüler, Hygiene Produkte,  Handtücher usw. Besonders gut finde ich die Fliegengitter vor allen Fenster und Türen.Wir kommen gerne wieder🙃

☹Keine Beanstandungen.

Těžko najít slova pro toto úžasné ubytování. Po příjezdu nás přivítala úžasná Giorgia, která nám předvedla kde co je, co je na co a předala nám láhev výborného vína na přivítanou. Úžasný apartmán, kde snad nechybělo nic. Myčka, lednička, mrazák, televize, umělá inteligence spojená s televizí, koupelna kde nechybělo nic, pelíšky a potřeby pro pejsky, úžasně pohodlné postele, k dispozici balená vody, kafe, čaje, koření - nevzpomínám si na nic co by nám chybělo. Dva balkony s úžasnými výhledy. Paní Giorgia se zajímala jestli něco nepotřebujeme, jestli jsme spokojeni. Parkování pod apartmánem, který je v klidné části lázeňského města. I my jsme se pak snažili zanechat apartmán čistý a snad i uklizený.
Určitě doporučujeme, už dlouho jsme na tak úžasné ubytování s příjemnou majitelkou nenarazili. Škoda, že nejde udělit více než maximum hvězdiček.
Milá Giorgia, moc a moc děkujeme a jestli (doufám že ano) se do těchto končin vrátíme, určitě využijeme Gios Hygge Nest.

 10.0Verificata ☺Everything was wonderful! The apartment was bright, spacious, cozy, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We truly felt at home.
There is convenient parking nearby, and the area is very quiet and peaceful. A good supermarket is just a 10-minute drive away.
The location is also perfect for exploring San Marino and Rimini. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!

Dov’è il comfort si sposa con pace e tranquillità

☺Appartamento molto confortevole e curato nei minimi particolari all’interno di un edificio immerso nella tranquillità di un ambiente collinare. Grande pulizia e attenzione ai dettagli oltre ad essere ultra-accessoriato (tutto quello di cui si ha bisogno … lo si può trovare). Letto molto comodo, due terrazze ideali per un aperitivo o anche per cenare (spazio per una coppia). Caloroso benvenuto della host con utili informazioni su ciò che si può trovare attorno all’abitazione (supermercati, ecc,): ci ha anche fatto trovare dell’acqua fresca nel frigo ed una bottiglia di vino del territorio. Assolutamente da provare le tisane !
