We stayed in the upstairs apartment with a nice balcony and a large bedroom, a simple kitchen with sufficient equipment (no dishwasher), the children's bedroom is simple and could do with updating. The living room was the worst place in the house, it's very dark and needs to be renovated. (We used the living room as little as possible.) The owners of the house are a very sweet, very friendly older couple. The house was spotlessly clean and we had a very pleasant stay in the very welcoming and pretty town of Porlezza with great restaurants and ice cream parlors and the lake within walking distance.
