One night in Como - lake view
We arrived earlier than our check-in time and the reception staff were ever so kind, lovely and approachable- we were able to check in earlier than their standard check in time. View was amazing and room was spacious. They helped us get around and offered us advice on where to go and how to get there which was very helpful.
