Apr 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family from US visit We had a wonderful stay at the Star of Lugano. It is a great location - very accessible to shopping, lake, sights..etc The apartment interior was very well appointed and had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were lovely. The Happy Rentals staff went above and beyond to help us out and answer questions. They were always available Just two little things to note.... The entry door "knob" was unique and therefore very challenging to both open and to lock the apartment. Better directions would help the visitors. There is a washer and dryer, but the dryer was broken. Not a big issue but should be addressed Also - the apartment is behind the Lugano casino - so it's possible that it could be noisy during warmer months when windows are open. We loved it though and would definitely come back to Lugano and stay there again! ##### terese t.

Great bed, excellent location, great appliances. Broken chesterfield, no hand soap washroom or kitchen, disgusting cutting board, dangerous floor tiles with no shower mat, difficult wifi connection, main washroom had no responsive thermostat and no towel heating bars, no paper towels. Only one dishwashing capsule and one for washing. No window curtains to respect privacy from neighbours, only shutters for this which close the window to light. ##### Maurice B. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elena M. Aug 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean and Updated & Lugano is gorgeous Cleanliness and spaces were wonderful. Lugano is amazing and we were within walking distance of tons of great spots to eat and hang out. Make sure you completely understand how and where to pick up the keys and park ahead of time because that was the most difficult step. Getting from the parking lot to the room first time was a mystery too - in spite of their photographic instructions ahead of time. Also we had no Wifi service bcs the router had no connection to the internet and there were no written instructions handy. Despite the small challenges we LOVED our stay. I would suggest to the property manager that they guide guests into the apartment on the initial visit. They were readily available by phone but for newcomers it was still a bit challenging. ##### Elena M. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Francois R.

Close to the park, old city and the promenade. A caution if you are staying on the weekend. The clubs are open until very late and the noise prevents sleep. Apartment had everything we needed and we enjoyed our stay! ##### Christine A.
