WELCOME
🏡 House Guide
Welcome to our home! We hope you feel right at home here. Below you’ll find some useful information to help you make the most of your stay in the flat.
There is a parking space reserved for you; it is the first one facing the street, in front of the building. The spaces are allocated to specific guests, so please do not park in any of the others.
You will be given the code for the building’s entrance door on the day of your arrival, along with the rest of the instructions.
👟 Throughout the Apartment
The apartment has wooden flooring in most rooms (except for the entrance hall, corridor, and bathroom).
We usually remove our shoes when entering the apartment and kindly ask you to do the same to help preserve the floors.
⚠️ Stretch Ceilings
All rooms in the apartment (except the bathroom) are fitted with stretch ceilings.
Please take special care:
No ball games inside the apartment.
No champagne corks launched toward the ceiling.
Please do not touch or push on the ceilings.
They are perfectly safe for normal use but can be damaged by impacts or sharp objects.
☀️ Shutters
The flat is fitted with traditional-style metal shutters.
In very hot weather, we recommend:
keeping the windows and shutters closed during the day
In any case, please do not leave the windows open when you are not at home. At night, in the main room, when you are asleep, leave the shutters closed and the windows open if you want a bit of air in, or close everything (shutters and windows).

🔊 Hi-Fi Amplifier
The amplifier is a:
Marantz NR1200
It works very well, although the Bluetooth connection can sometimes be a little temperamental (like hell)
Bluetooth Connection
Press and hold the Bluetooth button on the remote control for a few seconds (or a year !) to start pairing mode.
Important
⚠️ Please avoid controlling the volume from your phone.
The volume can increase very suddenly.
We recommend adjusting the volume:
directly on the amplifier;
or using the amplifier remote control.
This is much safer for both the speakers and your ears!
