The worst thing guests say

Complaints are few. A guest in October 2025 gave 4 stars because the location was too secluded for them, and a September 2026 guest called it a bit secluded but accessible. A 2019 guest said there is no private parking and you park on the street. No cleanliness, noise or service complaints appear in the 2024 to 2026 reviews we read.

Insider tips

  • Parking is on the street nearby, not on site.
  • The B&B is a short drive from Stresa, so plan your transport.
  • Ask Andrea about hikes and local tips.
Who it's for: couples who want a quiet, hosted stay with a hot tub near Lake Maggiore.
