La Terrazza - Verona

Accommodates 3 — 2 Bedrooms — 2 Baths

La Terrazza is an apartment on the top floor (elevator) of a building of historic importance dating back several centuries. It's located on the east bank of the River Adige, a 5-minute walk or less from the Arena. You'll be just blocks away from the famous balcony where Romeo did not avow his love to Juliet, as the whole story is a fiction (a fact that hasn't stopped hordes of tourists from photographing the alleged balcony). You enter into a charmingly furnished living-dining room at one end of which are a brand-new kitchen and full bath with shower. At the other end of the room, a staircase descends to the sleeping level, with a matrimonial bedroom (with small terrace adjacent), a good-sized single bedroom, and a second full bath with shower over tub. There is a cellular telephone.

Most important, off the living room you step out onto an enormous terrace which enjoys magnificent views over the entire city of Verona. The terrace is furnished with lounge chairs and a table, chairs, and big umbrella for alfresco dining.

This is a first-class apartment done in exquisite taste. There is no washing machine. A laundry is just downstairs, as is all shopping. Paid garages are in the neighborhood if you do have a car, as parking is not allowed within the building courtyard.

If you want a really special place where you can deepen your knowledge of one of Italy's most interesting cities, La Terrazza cannot be beat.
