Good location, only approximately 50 metres from Lake Garda, but in our opinion, the property description promises more than the house delivers.
One of the house’s four bedrooms is located on the lower ground/basement level. It is accessed through a door in the kitchen that looks like a cupboard door, giving the impression that the room was originally intended as some form of staff quarters.
There was already a noticeable smell of damp in the downstairs bedroom when we arrived. On the second-to-last night, both the bedroom and its adjoining bathroom flooded and could no longer be used. During the storm, roof tiles also fell from the house, and one of them struck our new car.
We fully understand that the extreme weather was beyond the host’s control. However, the smell of damp before the flooding suggests that there may already have been a moisture problem on the lower level. We also did not feel that sufficient precautions had been taken to protect this part of the house from water entering.
Our contacts responsible for the rental did not come to our assistance during the flooding. Afterwards, they were unfortunately not particularly helpful in handling and resolving the damage to our car either.
Overall, this is a spacious house in a good location, but our stay was significantly affected by the damp problem, the flooding, the lack of assistance and the damage to our car.
