Liked: The hostel is very near the lake in the centre of the town and you have a lot of shops and cafes nearby. Also our room and the bathroom were very, very clean and the staff was friendly. We even had a balcony.

Disliked: There was no breakfast included but that was no problem, because there are many bars and cafes only some footsteps from the hostel. The best one is "Insalateria la vita é bella", where one gets very good panini and cappuccino and the owner is friendly. (Leaving the hostel just turn right.)

Liked: The whole area surrounding Lago di Como is amazing. In Riva al Lago Hotel's location is just perfect. The staff was very kind and helpfull. The breakfast was surprisingly rich.. actually it was better than in most of the 3 star hotels I've been to.

Disliked: The free parking places are very limited and have to be ordered in advance. However, even the 5 EUR per day payed parking is not that much, compared to other Italian cities.

Liked: We love that it is right next to the lake and walking distance from the Duomo and all the lovely bars and restaurants... and the bus station. We could also park our hire car there easily which in Como is a bonus. The guy behind the desk is always helpful. The room we were in was very clean. We haven't tried to eat at the bar downstairs yet though. This was the second time we have stayed here and we will definitely be going back.
