“Poor accommodation, no real breakfast.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2010

This advertises itself as a B & B, but is basically self-catering accommodation. 'Breakfast' is a selection of pre-wrapped pastries on the kitchen table, and some juice, yoghurt and UHT milk in the fridge. The view of the lake is excellent, but unless you enjoy cleaning your own rooms I wouldn't recommend booking here. The kitchen had not been properly cleaned after the previous guests (food crumbs in fridge, crumbs on the table placemats, dirty floor, the top of the rubbish bin was filthy). The bedclothes were washed but had some old stains on them. The bathroom was pretty clean, but it and the bedroom were home to some very large spiders. If I hadn't been so tired and jetlagged we would have left after the first of our two nights.

There are points raised in this review that we need to consider for future guests, but there is one issue in particular that needs to be addressed and clarified with regard to the type of breakfast offered.
First of all: what is offered is in accordance with what is generally reckonized as "continental breakfast", that is coffee and tea and fruit juices, yoghurt, with bread and toasted bread with butter, marmalade, jam and various pastries.
All food is pre-wrapped as we are not allowed by law to do any cooking for our clients: in fact we do not have a kitchen license, as we are not a restaurant.
We regret that we cannot do anything more as we would be pleased to offer some home made patries, but we just cannot do it.

this b&b is a nice place to stay at. you have a nice view at the lake. no problems to communicate in english with the really friendly owner. you can use the free wlan internet if you have your notebook with you. comfortable beds. free coffee, milk, water, yoghurt.

but:
a bit dirty. still dishes in the dish-washer at arrival. actually no breakfast.

“Perfect affordable retreat after a busy day”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 July 2010

I was in Ispra on business and searched for an alternative place than the tired hotels I'd otherwise been in. Seeing the location of this B&B I choose it almost on a whim. Anyway, I guess this was a time intuition served well! First off, the location is great. From the room and terasse there are fantastic views of the lake. Then the owner speaks fantastic English--no problems with communication ever! The room was well cleaned and with a spiffy bathroom (shower) and espresso maker, could you ask for more? Wireless? Oh yes, they have that too! They have another room with more space for a family or group, but this room was more than I asked for.
