Martina

I loved my one night stay at Martinas apartment! The building is very fancy, high ceilings, historical architecture. The apartment therefore is very spacious. The room was really nice with a large window, large double bed. Martina provided towels and everything needed. The location is really good, in 8 min walk you are at the train station and you can reach the touristic center in 20 min walk or even faster by tram that stops almost in front of the house. Martina was super kind and flexible, whenever I had a question she could help me and even let me leave the bags there after check out so I could enjoy the city a bit more. :) I saw some reviews complaining about her cat but I did not have any problems - I did not even see her cat, furthermore the bedroom has a key so when I leave the room, I would just lock it so in any case the cat will not enter it. The bathroom was very clean and it was not a problem for me that it was shared. I can only recommend and will come back again!

I love Martina, she was wonderfull. She doesn's speak english and i don't really speak iatalian but we made it work or if it was urgent one of my italian friends called and that always worked out. She was so nice, very sweet lady who cares. Her cat is also a great bonus with his beautifull eyes. Even when there were problems she solved it, i will return. Mertina, se leggi questo, la prossima volta che sono a Torino beviamo qualcosa. Ciao

I dont really know if any of the facilities apart from the room, bathroom and cleanyliness is true. I jhad breakfast with Martina once (which was great), but if there is a pool, i don't know. The gate was tricky but Martina always helped.

Martina's lovely old apartment is about a 5 minute walk from the railway station (the "Stati Uniti" stop with tram 4 is even closer if you have heavy luggage but you cannot buy a ticket on the tram). It is 2 floors up from a side access so there is absolutely zero traffic noise. The keys (provided in my case by the concierge on the ground floor) gave access to the outer street door, the building door at street level and to the apartment. The lift is modern and roomy. I was given a most spacious and elegant room with a balcony opening onto a quiet area with some greenery. Martina arranged a simple breakfast for me at possibly the oldest patisserie in Turin, just a few paces away. Martina herself was very approachable.

I hadn't realised that the bathroom (spacious) would be shared.

Martina was very welcoming even though there was a language barrier. Nice Italian experience. Good value for money.

Aircon, was very hot at night
