Do not come if afraid of bug infestation

Response from the manager
Dear Maria, Thank you for this feedback. We are very sorry about what happened, it was an unexpected event that we could not have foreseen in any way. We apologize for not being able to intervene in time, but it was impossible to manage an invasion of ladybugs during Easter weekend. We will certainly do our best to ensure that situations of this type do not happen again and we hope that the refund offered can at least partially compensate for the inconvenience. Still sorry we wish you the best, kind regards, Lake Como Holiday

Response from the manager
Dear Maria, Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are sorry that the ladybug invasion ruined your stay, despite the beautiful view. It was not possible to intervene promptly due to the Easter weekend and we truly apologize for this. We will also check the electricity issue, certainly due to the terrible weather which caused the electricity to go out in several areas on Lake Como. Kind regards, Lake Como Holiday

Response from the manager
Dear Guido, Thanks for your review. We are enormously sorry about the insects problem and that we were unable to solve it. We will ask the local team for more information about this. It is absolutely necessary to proceed with disinfestation. We apologize again for this terrible situation. We will also check the problem with the electricity, probably it was due to the bad weather. Hope to have a chance to host you again in the future and offer you the great experience you deserve. Kind regards, Lake Como Holiday

Response from the manager
Dear Maria, Thank you for your feedback and once again we are sorry for your bad experience. The invasion of ladybugs was not something we could have foreseen and finding a pest control specialist during the Easter weekend was not possible. We tried to make up for it by offering a refund. We hope that issues of this type do not recur in the future and apologize again. Kind regards, Lake Como Holiday

Response from the manager
Good afternoon, Thanks for your review. We are again sorry for the problem your group encountered. We apologize again for not being able to solve the problem with the ladybugs in time. This invasion required the intervention of a specialist who unfortunately was not available at the time. We have offered a refund for the inconvenience caused. We really hope that a similar situation never happens again and apologized again. Kind regards, Lake Como Holiday
