I stayed at Sergio and Cristina's charming apartment in Drena for 2 weeks and had the best stay there. A few of the things I really liked:
• They are the nicest hosts. After showing me around they let me know of some snacks they had left for me (cake, eggs from their hens, and fresh fruit).
• Lots of space in the apartment -- and I loved the open layout of the kitchen / living room / loft area.
• Perfect airflow to keep the apartment cool. Having stayed at another place the week prior without AC, and was overwhelmed by baking in the heat, I was a little nervous about this, but I never felt hot once in Sergio and Cristina's apartment.
• Amazing location -- if you're a basejumper, its just a 10 min drive to Bar Parete Zebrata. Otherwise, its just 5 mins to Dro and 10 mins to Arco, as well as being very close to Lake Cavedine and some cool places in the mountains away from the hustle and bustle of the more busy/touristy areas in the valley. Also, the town of Drena itself is breathtakingly picturesque, and such a pleasure to spend time in.
• There is a washing machine (for clothes) in a shared room for the 3 apartments in the building. I was very grateful for it, and although there is not a dryer, I was able to dry my clothes quickly by laying them out on the balcony.
No real complaints. It was a little intimidating at first to figure out the trash/recycling sorting system, but after doing it once, it was a piece of cake. The bins themselves are next to the parking area, and have labels on them that make it very clear as far as what goes where (organics, paper products, plastics, glass, everything else).
Overall 5/5 place to stay, I wouldn't hesitate to come back next time I'm visiting the area.
