Wish I'd looked more thoroughly.
First, I’d like to say that the owner of the B&B was very nice, welcoming and helpful in providing tourist tips about Turin. The apartment itself was more or less OK – could take a good round of thorough cleaning (the light switchers were so dirty that we couldn’t even touch them before cleaning them with hand sanitizer!) WiFi was bad, most of the time we barely had a connection. Breakfast was a muffin; there were also some cereal, milk, tea, coffee, jam. The apartment had a “river view”; well, it was indeed on the river side, not picturesque, though. Those were not the things that put that B&B at the very bottom of the list for us. As they say, “location, location, location.” While looking for a place to stay in Turin, we needed a property that had parking (for the rental car), so, we knew that would be properties not in the city center. We weren't prepared for we actually saw. This B&B is located in a dirty, rundown multi-ethnic neighborhood, a bit of distance from the city center and tourist attractions, with no public transportation we could find close by. The closest Hop On Hop Off stop is on the central square which is about 30 min walk through some rather unpleasant streets. We didn’t feel comfortable walking around the neighborhood after dark and had to take taxi back at night due to that, 15 euros expense. The building with the B&B was quite safe and secure with controlled access (gate and fence around it). We will not stay in this B&B again, nor recommend it.

The service was beyond our expectations. On checkin we were provided with maps and several suggestions on places to eat and see while in Turin. Parking was easy, room was clean and well equipped. The building is just outside of the core so it is very quiet, all we heard at night was the water flowing trough the canal. Within a short walk there are several good restaurants, the market, and the town centre.

Notre hôte a été très accueillant. Le studio est situé assez près des principales attractions. Nous avons tout fait à la marche. Mais les transports en communs sont tous près aussi. Nous n’étions pas certain du quartier à la première impression, mais nous y retournions sans problème. Excellent rapport qualité/prix!

Non il massimo.
Non il massimo, per quei soldi si può andare in un hotel con degli standard più alti. E' la prima volta che trovo un letto senza lenzuola, il proprietario mi dice che c'è il piumone alla tedesca. Sarò anche all'antica e limitato ma igienicamente non mi è piaciuto per niente. Per la colazione, mi dice che bisogna farsela da soli, e che cìè tutto il necessario, è vero ma tutte confezioni normali e aperte e non monoporzioni sigillate, igiene quindi zero. Per chiudere: meno male che si è trattato di 2 sola notte,

Situato in una zona tranquilla, il miniappartamento si trova in una bella palazzina. Ci sono dei parcheggi liberi di fronte. Il balcone offre una bella vista sulla città e sul fiume. Molto apprezzate la cordialità del proprietario e la prima colazione fai da te, con angolo cucina funzionale e ben fornito.

Turin 5 dagar, mor och dotter
Lägenheten var helt okej, köks utrustningen var väldigt enkel och livsmedlen som fanns var inte så inbjudande, gamla datum och ovisst hur länge en del saker stått där. Neskaffe där sista förbruknings datum var 2014 (fick nytt när vi påpekade det) Gratis frukost men inte som vi svenskar kanske önskar, 2 muffins, marmelad kex, skorpor, vatten, Värden var mycket trevlig, informerade om hur vi skulle hitta i Turin till olika platser och kommunikationer.

Ce n'est pas un hôtel, mais le sympathique propriétaire (qui vit dans le même immeuble) met à disposition de quoi préparer soi-même son petit-déjeuner (biscottes, beurre, confitures, muffins, thé et café).

Situé dans un cartier pas très rassurant au nord de la ville, le studio est pourtant récent et confortable. Bon rapport qualité prix, malgré l'absence totale de petit déjeuner le second jour. Absence de porte-pommeau de douche, serviettes de bain fort petites, absence de parking sécurisé (il y a de la place, mais en rue!).
