We stayed at Carla's house for 4 nights and had a very good experience. While Carla does not speak English we were still able to communicate through translation apps. The apartment was very clean, the bed was comfortable and the view is wonderful. Carla had milk and orange juice and fruit waiting for us when we got there so we did not have to worry about breakfast the first morning, which as a nice touch. The town of Riva di Solto is withing walking distance and is a lovely place with a few restaurants and one gelato shop with excellent gelato. There is also the Bellavista Pizzeria just up the hill that has excellant Pizza. One downside is the shower is very small and the water pressure is light, but it is manageable. Overall we had a great stay.
