Villa Lena

Enzo, the owner, was AMAZING!! He picked us up at the train station and also took us back when we were leaving Lake Como. The view from the Villa is BEAUTIFUL! The place is peaceful. He has an amazing cappuccino machine which you can use to have your coffee in the morning. He provides a refrigerator to keep your drinls cold. The air conditioning works great! It is a far walk from the town since is high up in the mountain. If you are driving, you will have no problem. Walking down to the town takes about 20 minutes and it's not bad; however, going up, we did it twice and it was HORRIBLE because of the inclination. Enzo will provide a list of taxi drivers which you can schedule to drive you back to the Villa.

The walking back to the villa.

Thanks to Enzo for hosting us — he was very helpful and welcoming. The stay was very comfortable, with thoughtful touches like a croissant, a bottle of water, fresh towels, and bath amenities provided for each person every day. The room was cleaned daily, and free coffee and tea were always available. The outdoor area is lovely and a great place to relax or enjoy a meal. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and I would recommend it.

You need to go through 3 stairs to get to the town, it’s quite exhausting, but possible

You have to get a lakeside room with the lake view. The villa is a vintage, modest and unspoiled three story gem of history. Not fancy, with narrow staircase, and a wonder of an owner named Enzo. He is as real as the walls of his property, kind and authentic. The whole place simply says “Italy”!! I will be back! So relaxing.

Nothing, even the little blow up jacuzzi pool is charming.

It was very clean. The host was welcoming and very friendly. A quiet street with a great view of the lake.

The address entered in Google Maps took us to a street in a neighboring village, not to the actual location—coordinates should be published instead. The room was very damp, and the bedding was very wet. In the evening there is essentially no parking; the one indicated was completely full, and we had to park about 700 meters further down. There were signs of mold in the bathroom and in the room.
