    The responding email was not translated to English at all. The way of access was through a phonecall to the manager. As a tourist I did not have phone call capabilities, only WhatsApp. There was no onsite parking as indicated. The apartment appointed was not as large as the photos depicted.

    Central location. Self catering with stovetop, plates and cooking utensils. Friendly manager giving access. Good wifi. Fan supplied as the room gets warm.

    The room was nice enough and a decent size but the bed and pillows were not so comfortable. It was really hot during my visit so sleeping without the option of air conditioning might be difficult for some. The communication could have been better, I had a check-in request that was never answered and the phone number sent in my confirmation didn't connect - it kept dropping part of the country code - maybe not the hosts problem but the details on the door itself were also out of date/incorrect so it took a little patience to resolve.

    Excellent location and adequate facilities

    It was very hot at night, no fan and couldn't leave the windows open as it was by the main entrance staircase which looked into the room so had to pulled down the shutters :( The location of the room was not good at all, too much noise from outside

    The location was excellent. Room was clean and wifi was good.

    Breakfast, luggage room and parking not available. Other city contacts finally told us about free parking at the main station after lots of own research. Since parking in the price garages (nearly 30€/night) isnt insured either, there's no real security benefit of parking there.

    great location, spacious room, very friendly and sophisticated owner

    antimosquito grid on the window would be helpfull

    Apartments are placed in the center of Merano, on the shopping street, very close to all facilities. The window of our apart fased to the internal part of the building so it was quiet. The apart consisted of the large bath room (with shower) and one not very big living room with little kitchen ( frige, washing mashine, electrica kettle, + all necessary stuff), table, wardrobe and big bed. Everything was good but not too much place to move around the bed.

    Lady who gave us keys was very nice but could not speak English. She spoke only german to us, so it was kind of hard to communicate but we managed somehow. Also, the apartment was nice and in the center but it was sooo expensive for just a place to stay without any hotel services.

    Very nice location in the centre of Merano. The room was big and clean, we even had a dishwasher :D We really appreciated the ventilator because it was really hot during our stay.

    Because of the location of my room, i couldn't open the window while i was sleeping cause there were stairs and people could easily get in to my room while i was sleeping. That's an architectural issue, cannot blame the location but this is a fact. Payment has to be Cash which is awkward considering you are securing the room with your credit card and paying in cash. On travel most of the people would like to keep their cash on would like to pay with their credit cards.

    Location is excellent. Room was quite comfortable. Right in the heart of the city. At the beginning it is was little hard to find because the address takes you to a storefront. You need to walk in the passage and at the left you find the key box. Owner was very friendly and speaks good English.

    the apartment is tiny, hot, smells, below any standard looks more like an hourly apartment...

    The place was below any standard, first there is no parking, the instructions to the place are not clear, we spoke to the manager which sent us a 90 old

    it’s an absolute scam. Booked the deluxe which was advertised to have a terrace - there was none, not even a balcony. the advertised soundproofing was laughable as even the door to the apartment didn’t seal off very well (the light from the corridor came through so mich that we had to tampon it with a towel). the towels were smelly and had stains, and when i complained to the owner he sent his 80 year old mother to pick up payment. worst experience I’ve had in years - and at this price point i’m almost considering legal action. STAY AWAY

    The apartment is located on top of the old city center. We went down the elevator and were in the passage. The apartment was well-equipped with all the required kitchenettes. The owner was very nice and we had an interesting discussion about the history of the town. Price was excellent for the location.
