Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 22:00, which may be tight for late arrivals unless you arrange otherwise with the host.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.

  • Check-out is early — Check-out is at 10:00, which might feel early for a relaxed morning.

“The apartment's space was a real plus, along with a well-stocked kitchen and a small inner courtyard. The terrace at the front gave fine views. Communication with the host was excellent.”

“I had stayed before and would recommend it. The location, so close to the bustling city life and the centre, was marvellous, and the room was airy. The host made my stay fabulous; everything was wonderful and I got ironing for free. The bathroom had a bidet, a drier and bath sheets. The window faced the courtyard. It was a 10-minute walk to Vera Coffee Break for coffee and treats.”

“Our stay at La Terrazza Sul Massimo was wonderful. The apartment was spacious and well-equipped, with a lovely kitchen and a small courtyard. The decor was charming and the hosts were responsive and friendly. The location was incredible, right across from the Teatro and close to everything we needed—street markets, grocery stores, and great restaurants. The terrace was the highlight, where we had breakfast and evening drinks. It was our favourite place in Italy. There were no cons—everything was perfect.”
