  : Bed was comfortable and the room was spacious with access to a shared balcony (balcony was not for the exclusive use of this apartment).
  : Shower had low pressure. Kitchen equipment basic. Too hot!We booked this place to extend our stay in Domodossola. Our experience spoiled our time in Domodossola, despite having had an excellent stay around the corner in a different apartment for two nights previously.First issue was when I requested a receipt for the money I handed over (only cash payments taken by the host). I was refused and told it was not a hotel, just a private business so no receipts possible - to which there is no acceptable response in my judgement. Shocking!There is no air-conditioning, instead an impractical fan was provided. The fan itself is not sufficient and blew down a lots of thick dust from the wooden rafters.The apartment was very hot and windows had to be kept open to alleviate this. Unfortunately this meant having to deal with lots of local noise from passers-by, children playing and screeching until after 10:30pm etc.Thursday Evening: the bar opposite started playing very very loud music non-stop from 5pm until almost midnight. The police drove-by several times during the evening but did not visit the bar until after 11pm. The music continued for a while longer after they left and at the same high volume, then most of the noise was from Adults & children shouting in the bar area, which continued until about 2am.Friday: the music noise started about 2pm, although it stopped later and most of the evening noise was from local passers-by shouting in the street below.Saturday: 6am a very lovely street market set-up just outside. Whilst it was great to see the market stalls and traders, we were less keen on listening to their busy arrival & setup (possibly as we probably only had a total of 6-8 hours sleep in a two night stay).Overall, our stay was a nightmare and very uncomfortable for the whole duration - I would not recommend this place and would not return.Be aware, without air-con in the hotter summer months this will be a story repeated!
