We were there in the spring. The apartment is large and offers plenty of space. It's ideally located for excursions. The Sentiero del Viandante trail starts right outside the apartment (about 5 km to Varenna, about 7 km to Dervio; you can return by train or boat). We also really liked Bellano as a town. There are several bars, ice cream parlors, and restaurants. You just have to walk down the path and then back up again (about 15 minutes down, about 20 minutes back with some elevation gain).
