83 stairs but beautiful room!

The room was beautiful with an awesome view however, there were 83 steps up to our room!!! We had lots of luggage (as we just finished a cruise and took 4 trains to get there). So it was pretty brutal to get to our room. Also the air conditioning was more like a fan. Kind of typical for Europe but definitely no real cooling. The hot tub was a nice bonus!

Absolutely loved staying here! One of my favorite places I stayed at in Italy. It really felt so comfortable, the bed and bathroom were so nice. Loved the view of the water and town from the balcony. It was magical to wake up to the sunrise and ocean view. Perfect location. Highly recommend staying here!

NOT A HOTEL!!!!

Not mentioned anywhere that this is not a hotel- but simply just a room lent out by a random landlord. No reception so simply none of the services listed was available. On our way to the address given by Hotels.com we were contacted by the landlord on WhatsApp and given instructions where to find the keys. During one evening others entered the room even if we had locked the door, because the emergency key box had keys for all rooms… Clean room and towels changed everyday, but all in all my recommendation is to Stay away!!!!

Perfect for 2

Beautiful place to stay for my girlfriend and I. Very convenient location from the train station. The bed was comfortable and the whole place was very clean. There was no mini fridge only the mini bar which could only fit one bottle of wine. Overall an excellent trip but make sure to pack lightly because the stairs are no joke.

The location of the room was amazing and not so great at the same time. Communication with the staff was hit and miss. I reached out a few weeks prior to arrival asking about early check in and or luggage storage. The stairs are extremely steep and not consistent size. We had one carry on and backpack each and it was a difficult climb. It would be great if this was indicated somewhere in the listing and not just in the reviews. Once you get to the room, it is great! The room was clean and the view is wonderful. The other draw back is that it is located above a bar in the center of town. The bar and noise until 1:00 in the morning is not conducive to a relaxing vacation.

The view was a 10/10, for sure. The place itself was okay, the upstairs bedroom was pretty warm, the bathroom only has 1 very dim light in there and it was veryyyyy dark. Also the property manager/host was really not a helpful person at all. It was our first time in cinque terre, we knew there was going to be stairs but did not know the full extent and let me tell you it was a lot of hills and stairs. They did not warn us or inform us of a luggage service. After we checked in, we asked them if there was a luggage service we could pay to bring our luggage to the car when we check out. They told us no, but afterwards we saw companies with their trucks for luggage service. The host was just not helpful at all and I probably wouldn’t stay there again.

Last minute room change

Merchant informed me of a change in my reserved room at the last minute. The room was not worth what I paid for, though it was pleasant. The shower is quite nice. The Jacuzzi seems to be mostly for show.

The bedroom was clean, fresh and bright. We found it comfortable and met our needs. The bathroom was also clean but it would have been useful to have been given instructions on how to use the shower. The water in the wash hand basin hot tap was cold. Lots of clean, fresh towels were made available to us and very nice shampoo, body wash and body cream and other bathroom necessities. Unfortunately, there was no conditioner. I found communicating through WhatsApp functional and impersonal. At no point was any effort made to ‘host’ us or to offer any type of hospitality. Or indeed to let us know we could contact them about any extra needs. This aspect of our stay was disappointing. I have no idea about the eco credentials of this accommodation.

The rental was amazing. It was clean, beautiful, and comfortable with everything one would need with a great view. It is quite a climb up to the top of the stairs that is not for the weak of heart. Directions to find and get into the rental were like a scavenger hunt but part of the fun. It is located right above a happening restaurant bar so the noise goes until 11 ish, but is also right above a happening restaurant bar so trip home is easy other than those stairs. they are serious if you are packing luggage.

Overpriced!

Place overpriced. The heating was not working and there were no blankets available. Cabinets door falling apart. The entrance to the place was a working site. Sign everywhere on how much it would cost to do anything extra. Only positive experience is the little balcony with a spectacular view!

Worth the steep climb up! Spectacular views!

Don't believe the bad Google reviews! This place is Amazing! We booked the honeymoon suite during our 10 day trip across multiple cities in Northern Italy and this was our favorite hotel of all of them. The views were absolutely spectacular! The room was clean and well appointed. A few tips: 1. Don't bring a big bag. We left our large suitcases in our rental car and just carried a small backpack up the stairs 2. Must be somewhat 'fit' or 'in shape' to stay here, the stairs are VERY steep and getting from the parking area to the property is at the bottom of the hill. Getting back up the hill would be difficult if you have any mobility issues. Your apple watch will definitely know that you are working out when you climb these 4 flights of stairs, but once you're up there it is worth the view. If you have any mobility issues and cannot hike up a large hill then I would not book here, and probably would not stay in this area at all. Good communication from the host leading up to our stay and during our stay.

I stayed here with a couple friends and although the apartment is tiny without many kitchen amenities, we found it perfect for what we needed. We did struggle with finding the place however, the directions were as clear as they could be. There are a lot of steep stairs getting up to the apartment and it’s not very well lit. The apartment was right next to a pizza shop, gelato, and Café with many many restaurant and shopping opportunities. The apartment was about a 10 minute walk from the train. Everything was neat and clean, and the view was spectacular. Definitely not recommended for anyone with mobility issues as the apartment is on the fourth floor, and one of the bedrooms was a loft which required climbing up steep ladder. Overall, we enjoyed our stay

Great location and clean property. However, getting bags up to the room was quite the experience - steps from the rail station down to the marina. Followed by 3-4 stories - the initial steps are double height which makes this especially challenging. Other challenges - no early check in. Asked for porter service for way back - got a number but the contact said he does not work with this air bnb anymore. So we had to lug our luggage back. But the property is impeccable and clean and the view from the terrace is really awesome and made up for these shortcomings. Breakfast was great as well.

The room it’s self it’s nice once you find the place. It’s was difficult to find needs better directions thankfully the staff at the bar/resturant were helpful. The amount of stairs and how step the stairs were was a task to climb. The listing said o and offsite parking there is NOT on site parking one parking garage for the entire town we sat and waited over an hr for a spot to open up for 35 euro a day. Also said free bottle of wine which we did not get and there is not continental breakfast zero staff onsite it’s more like and Airbnb without a kitchen. AC worked great and overall room was nice just caught off guard from what the listing states it isn’t exactly what you’re getting.

Positive: Magnificent view of the iconic buildings of Riomaggiore and the Mediterranean. Negatives: 1. Incredibly hard to find. The owner’s instructions were woefully inadequate, and Google Maps pointed to an erroneous location. The owner did respond to WhatsApp messages, and we eventually got in… but not before several long “wild goose chases”. 2. The room was clean, but the furnishings were spartan. The bed was uncomfortable, and the frame squeaked. Also, no indoor table and chairs suitable for enjoying coffee, wine, or beer when its raining. 3. WiFi was never available during the stay. The owner responded but service never came online. This is unacceptable for this price. 4. The “private hot tub” was not inviting. A 6-ft planter beside the tub contained no plants, only dirt. Yuck! The plants on the balcony were also in very poor condition, indicating a lack of upkeep. 5. There was a coffee pot, water and a mini bar in the room, but nothing was free. Prices were not outrageous but at this price we at least expect free drinking water and coffee. Finally, be aware that the property is on the top floor and one must navigate 6 flights of narrow, winding, poorly-lit stairs. The listing says “no elevator” but we weren’t prepared for a rigorous and challenging indoor hike, particularly with several large pieces of luggage. Be forewarned! We’re giving 2 stars … only because the view is really breathtaking. We would love to return to the area … but it won’t be here.
