The service is provided for your enjoyment but you are responsible for safe and appropriate use and complying with all laws. If there is any loss of service please turn off and on the modem. If the problem still there please contact us.

Air conditioning

Our home has the benefit of air conditioning. You will find a panel on the wall [in the lounge/bedroom/hallway/etc]. Please ensure that all windows and outside doors are closed whilst the AC is running to ensure it operate to maximum efficiency. We recommend a setting of [72F / 22C] which we find keeps the place sufficiently cool.
During cold seasons, the house is warmed up with a centralized heating system. Thus, we kindly ask you to open the air conditioning only in case of extreme need. We work towards avoiding wasting and we want to be friendly with our environment.

Kitchen equipment

The Fridge/freezer: You should not need to adjust any settings. If you run into any difficulties (e.g. it’s not cooling efficiently) please let us know. The Hob is a four induction hob. When grilling please leave the window open.

Laundry appliances

We have a washer located in the toilet. There is a supply of detergent for your use. To operate the machines, simply select the program you want, place the detergent in the tray, close the door, and hit start.

Breakages

We understand that sometimes accidents happen! Should you break anything please let us know immediately – if it’s minor we usually won’t charge. If it’s a larger issue (e.g. the TV screen!) we would like to agree the cost with you before you leave to avoid any issues later. Thank you!

Television

The flat is furnished with TV in Italian and English language.

Pets

If you have pets please contact us!

Smoking policy

Please smoke outside the flat on the balcony.

Check-out time

Check-out time is strictly 11am. Should you require a later check-out we will do our best but you need to let us know beforehand. If we have guests arriving that day it will be almost impossible to offer a late check-out due to the cleaners needing to prepare for those guests.
