      It was a joyous and fulfilling week staying in the loft.

      Left on 04/20/2013 for a stay in October 2012

      From the moment we were met by the delightful and incredibly thoughtful anna , our stay was perfect. We found the home to be very well organised, with everything working and a bed that was extremely comfortable. It was so special to be up above the square especially during the Truffle festival and it was easy to use alba as a base to go anywhere in Piemonte.There are good shops, restaurants and cafes all around. We cant wait to come back and stay a lot longer.

      Best location, great attic

      Left on 11/29/2012 for a stay in November 2012

      How many times have you repeated same apartment in less than one year? We have, once. We spent one week during the truffle season in November in alba and, as usual, we were treated very well by Dario and his sister anna. The apartment is located right in the middle where the action is in alba. Inside, you have everything you need. In less than 150 meters you have access to parking, supermarkets, wine and gourmet shops and wherever you need to make your stay memorable. If alba is part of your next itinerary I would recommend to check whether the place is availably. Don't miss it! Cheers, A. Gaspar

      Alba's best vacation apartment

      Left on 02/26/2012 for a stay in February 2012

      Alba Tower apartment is one of the finest places in town. Located in the heart of the old part of the city, the apartment has all the basics (including a modern kitchen) one would need to make one's stay very pleasant and it is nearby everything, from gourmet shops, restaurants, supermarkets, wine stores, loundry services and churches. Owner Dario is very helpful and goes beyond standard business practices to ensure his guests are OK. The apartment is perfect for a couple. This is probably the best bet for those who like space, some comfort and relaxing place to stay. A.Gaspar

      Alba's most central and convenient apartment.

      Left on 01/15/2012 for a stay in September 2011

      This large one bedroom apartment is positioned in the centre of alba's historical precinct. Restaurants, cafes and shops are right at your front door and it is an easy walk to the weekday markets and train station. We stayed for three weeks and can't wait to get back for a longer stay! Great internet connection, full kitchen and washing machine.

      The most suggestive place where we slept until now

      Left on 01/01/2012 for a stay in December 2011

      A wonderful attic room furnished and restored with great style. The double bedroom is inside the tower and extremely suggestive. Even the location is unique: a medieval palace in the townn square with the main church just in front of us. From the tower we could see all the old town roofs. New furniture and extremely clean place.
      Surely one of the more suggestive accomodation we found until now.
