Nice apartment in quiet neighborhood
The apartment is very clean and comfortable. It is about a 15-minute easy walk from the train station and about 10 minutes from the major tourist attractions in Parma. The neighborhood is quiet but there are several very good restaurants and taverns within a minute or two walk. For senior citizens, the bedroom next to the bathroom on the first floor has two twin beds, spaced about a foot apart. The large bed is located in a loft up a steep narrow spiral staircase with a low beam at the top. Navigating in the middle of the night requires care. However, we managed without any issues. The owner met us upon our arrival and was very attentive to our needs.

Great rental in Parma
Our stay here was excellent. The owner, Michele, was extremely accommodating, friendly, and communicative. The setup in the apartment was welcoming and had everything available for proper living - it was as if we stayed at a family’s own dwelling, rather than a generic rental. Very thoughtful. Thanks so much for you hospitality! Looking forward to returning here our next time through Parma.

Parma City Center Review - May 2022
Pros: 1. Great host. Michele met us upon arrival and explained the functionality of the apartment, the location relative to restaurants, etc., and provided parking location adjacent to the apartment. 2. Convenient location for both exploring Parma and navigating by car to sites outside of the city. 3. Clean and well equipped for preparing breakfast and dinner meals. Appreciate the large map of the city at the entrance - very convenient. 4. Reasonably quiet. I'm used to NYC, so the street noise on Friday did not bother me much. 5. Very comfortable beds. Cons: Only one. We had problems connecting to wifi with our laptops. No problems with cell phones. Suggest that this be checked out. Considerations: 1. The unit is on the 2nd floor (3rd for US). There are 2 flights of stairs to the apartment. For older adults, this may pose an inconvenience. 2. The 2nd bedroom is up one more level on a tight winding staircase. We did not use it. For kids or older adults, something to keep in mind. Would I stay here again? Definitely.

Perfect apartment for your stay in downtown Parma
Our family vacationed in Parma for 5 weeks and this apartment was perfect in many ways: spacious, well-organized and outfitted with dishwasher, washer and a fairly large refrigerator and gas stove, a boon if you like to cook instead of eating out all the time. We stayed in the summer months, so the A/C was a welcome feature (a feature not always available in other properties). The place is clean, beautifully decorated and well-served by nearby shops, bars and restaurants and only a 10 minute walk from the heart of downtown, Piazza Garibaldi, or 5 minutes from the Barilla Center (Galleria). Our host was most gracious, helpful with any inquiries/information required and extremely responsive to any emergencies. He provides a very organized and detailed folder with information on operating all of the appliances and even welcomed us with a bottle of local wine. The Nespresso coffee maker was also a welcome luxury! I can honestly say this was our most positive vacation rental experience ever.

Cute little apartment, very gracious host
We stayed for 3 nights in Michele's very well-equipped apartment. Michele was a very kind and generous host. There were some food supplies provided, and he took the time to ensure that we knew how things worked. There is one bedroom on the main floor, but one bedroom is up some very steep stairs, so make sure there are no mobility issues if you are planning to stay here. I highly recommend Michele's apartment in Parma.

Quirky, funky apt in the best location with the BEST Host
When I booked this apartment I knew from the pictures it was different than most. We travel a lot so we have rented many on homeaway. This by far had to be one of our best experiences. Besides being within 5 minutes of the most beautiful part of town, the host Michele was the most attentive and gracious person I have ever met. The apartment could not have been more well supplied and he thought of everything a guest could need and he was there at a moments notice if needed. We have stayed in higher end, more expensive rentals, but this home made us feel at home, welcomed and well looked after. I cannot recommend this apartment more highly for your stay in Parma. We definitely will return. Grazie Mille Michele for all you did. Most appreciated. Molto Bene. Audrey and Frank

Perfect spot for 2!!
We had a wonderful time visiting Parma based from this location. The apartment is a perfect size for 2 people ... and is very adorable. You have everything you might need and the location is ideal. We walked everywhere. Michele is an amazing host and one of the most thoughtful we have ever rented from. He even saved us a parking spot for our car early on the day of our arrival right in front of the apartment. We would definitely recommend this location and if ever visiting Parma again ... we would stay here!!

Great host, good location
Michele is a great host who lives right across the street should a problem arise. Fortunately we didn't have any occasion to call him. Michele gave us a good introduction to the apartment and we were off and running. The unit is bright and sunny with little or no street noise. The unit is a couple of blocks from all there is to see and do in Parma and is as described on the Home Away site. Plenty of good restaurants and markets close by.

The Apartment was Great and Michele a wonderful host.
We used Parma as a base from which to explore parts of the region. It is well connected to other centres and offers a nice small town feel at Michele's place. The apartment is comfortable, well equipped and air conditioned, which was essential on the 37 C days. Michele was a splendid host helping us make tour arrangements and booking dinner reservations. You have to try the Parmigiana Soufle at La Forchetta.

Brilliant place in great location
Michele was very accommodating and made us feel very welcome. Booking and correspondence was very easy and we felt the accommodation was good value for money. The location was excellent and only a very short walk to the cathedral and centre. All facilities were in great condition and we were also unexpectedly provided with breakfast basics. As a family of 3, there was plenty of room for all of us. Great stay.

Totally five stars
We stayed in this historic-center apartment for three months this spring. It was a good space for the two of us, although it can sleep four. It is a modernized space in a building built in 1700. The living, dining, kitchen area is very pleasant and well-equipped. It has two beautiful windows onto the street. One bedroom, with its own street window, is on the level of the living area. The other is above it and accessed by a spiral staircase. We opted for the lower bedroom. There are other tenants, but the building is very quiet. Michele, the landlord, is a fabulous man. You could not ask for better. He lives across the street, and if there was an issue, he'd text, "I'll be there in 10 minutes." He picked us up from the station when we arrived, and would do the same if we took a trip. He knows all about Parma and the province (which is a great place) and, indeed, he's been everywhere in Italy. We will miss him --- meeting him on the street, chit-chatting, etc. The neighborhood is great. The duomo and famous Baptistry are a 5 or 6 minute walk away. There is a superior old-fashioned grocery/general store around the corner (The Amici Market) which sometimes sems like a community center. There is a nice bread store (Pane Piu'), a health food store (Ceres), and, of, course, cafes. It is a real neighborhood. We never had a car in Italy, but, if you are a cyclist, once you learn how to ride out of town, the country south of Parma is rich and exquisite and "big sky". There are many castles as destinations. The area also provides access to the Passo di Cisa and the Passo del Bocco from which there is downhill access to the coast of Liguria. This can be done in a day if you take the train back to Parma. Note: north of Parma is trafficked and industrial/commercial gritty. Last, we found internet connections not as strong as in the USA. We had a great time! Thank you, Michele.

Wohnung perfekt für 1-2 Personen. Alles Nötige vorhanden und sogar noch etwas mehr, z.B. Kaffeekapseln-Vorrat, Kaffeepulver, Essig,Oel, Zucker, Salz, Gewürze. Sehr gut eingerichtete Küche. Alles so, wie man es in Italien selten erlebt. Dazu ein freundlicher und sehr hilfsbereiter Michele. Sehr gut und fast ausschlaggebend für die Wahl war die Möglichkeit das Auto zu parkieren, direkt am Rand der Altstadt und 10 Min. vom Zentrum entfernt. Kann nur empfohlen werden.
