The property was nice, the room was big and the bed was comfortable. We booked the Honeymoon suite so we’re had our bath in the room which was really cool. The location was perfect, close to everything including the train station and the pier but not a loud or busy area.
I messaged saying that it is our honeymoon and asked if they could possibly set something special up for us. The response I got was “noted thankyou” so we kind of got our hopes up that it might have a little something to make it more special but it was just the standard room. The next morning we were sent a price list of options that you could buy for the room (champagne, fruit, sweets etc) but they were very expensive! I thought with the price of the room something might have been included since it was the “honeymoon suite” but it’s really just for the bath.

the location was the only thing that was good.
It was a simple room, not luxurious in any way. The bed kept making noises whenever we moved. There was only one pillow per person and the pillow was not good at all. If I had booked a simpler place I would expect that, but seeing as they advertise luxurious rooms with fancy ambience it was a huge let down. Also the rooms are located inside this apartment like floor and the door to the apartment is unlocked to anyone who desires to enter. We did not feel safe only having the door to our room locked.

Close to Town center, bed comfortable
doors stayed open all the time, didn’t feel safe. Water from shower wouldn’t drain, flooding the whole bathroom floor. Our room door would open by itself, no option to lock the door. Mosquitoes everywhere in the room overnight even with the windows closed. Room floor sticky and dirty. Noisy neighbors at night, putting music very loud, could feel the room vibrating.

It was clean and in a close proximity to the harbour for boat trips and nice restaurants.
We had to pay for coffee pods and it didn’t include any milk to even have a coffee of tea. Pretty basic things these days.
It was a large as in the photos.

The rooms were very modern
Room keys weren’t initially in the lock box, the cleaners had them. Though this wasn’t a big issue as once we got in to the main lobby area the cleaners gave us our keys.

The place was very well located to access Cinque Terre. The room isn’t overly spacious but you get exactly what you see online. There is no staff or reception there, so all comms is via WhatsApp but my experience was they were very responsive when we we had questions. The room was also clean and comfy!
The wifi signal didn’t really reach our room which was tricky on days we needed to do a bit of work. There’s also no reception / restaurant / gym / breakfast etc. so if you want those services, this isn’t a good option.

Had some payment issues and didn’t get much support from the property. Instead they were really rude on the chat when asked for help to resolve.

Good location, friendly staff. They ordered a taxi when we needed one and offered advice when requested.
The aircon likely needs to be serviced or filters cleaned. We had the AC on the lowest setting and after sitting in the room for a while it did not cool down enough. After we approached management to ask for a new room they advised they were fully booked but offered a small fan to help which it did and were grateful for it.
Breakfast would be better if offered a bit earlier than 8:30am. Many tourists tend to head out for the day quite early especially in summer so there were a couple mornings we missed out.

The room was clean
Wi-Fi didn’t work. We had 2 nights booked but the booking wasn’t combined for some reason and were made to check out at 11 until 3pm, with a pregnant wife not ideal! Coffee in the room wasn’t complimentary - €1.5, for context a cappuccino at a cafe was €1.30.

This is how i can describe my 8 hours stay and here is the situation.
As soon as i arrived to the property i got wi-fi issues and i have contacted via whats app the manager of the rooms, they fixed it in 2 hours but still i had to cancel my online meetings due to this issue. After they fixed it, it stopped working again and I communicated then via messages because i didn’t have a wifi, because i got no answer and i am alone in a different county without any internet i started panicing and called them from the phone which is in the room. I told the host that the wifi is not working again and he told that the technician is coming tomorrow and this is not their problem because they are not the phone company. He ended up telling me that i am “rude and unpolite”NO ONE INFORMED ME ABOUT THIS. No one said sorry or apologized for the inconvenience they caused me because of not having a wifi. It’s 21st century and it is a must. Especially if they say on their website/booking page that the wifi is included.
But the main problem happend when i forgit my card inside the room and as soon as i realized i texted the manager but he replied only to my friend (i asked her to contact them via whatsapp) IN 2 HOURS!!! HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! Instead of apologizing telling me many times that i am rude.
As soon as they sent the information about the emergency box with a key inside i grabbed my things and left the place, i didn’t even slept there, i just booked a normal hotel and went there to calm myself down because i didn’t feel safe.
Now i checked their reviews and i see that i am not the only one who complains about how rude the host is. I hope booking will check on this probrety and will give me condensation for the moral damage.

The space was clean, comfortable, and central. We were able to move freely without worrying about anything, it was great.
We were super impressed by the breakfast that came in the morning. It felt like real luxury and was delicious!
We would definitely stay again.
The ait conditioning didn't work and so, it was really stuffy and hot.
Also, the windows were not completely soundproof, so as you can imagine, on a Saturday night it was quite loud.
7.0 / 10.0
Clean, newly refurbished to a very high standard. Top quality.
Air conditioning was not working so a little warm and not possible to open the windows as it was extremely noisy - outside noise was very loud in the room despite the windows being tight shut. This meant lots of noise during the day as building work going on and then at night with people outside and early morning when traffic started flowing.

You cannot turn on the A/C during the autumn season, so had to dealt with a hot night

Very good location for where we needed to be. This is an unmanned set of rooms in a large old apartment building. We were a bit confused at first by reception all operating through WhatsApp messages, but whoever was on the other end was excellent and extremely helpful with our rather inane questions and responded to everything immediately. We spent two nights here. Shower presure was excelent.
The air-conditioning in our room did not work at all and needs re-gassing.
The form that we were emailed two days before we arrived was painful to fill in and asked for more details than it needed to. Also not easy to complete when you only have a phone to work off. And then this information was never received by the person who was remotely operating the reception via WhatsApp so had to send him pictures of passports, which was actually all that was needed.

the person attended the whatsapp message only when convinient to him
i requested and paid for a city view and the view was upstructed due to maintenance on the building

The location was probably the best about this place
The rooms are already worn down quite a lot. The view from the windups was showing towards a dark wall - so no light was coming into the room. The bed was uncomfortable and made a lot of noise. The correspondence with Enrico was very unfriendly and not how you should speak to your customers. They wanted to force us to download WhatsApp before sending us the self check in information. One of the safes was broken so we couldn’t access our documents. The little fridge makes a lot of noise in the night. All in all it was really not a nice stay. For this price rather book yourself a hotel.

Location was pretty good, short walk to bus station which then takes you on to the metro lines into all the other islands.
Room was great size, super clean, but the 2nd shower head did not work & when advised the host nothing was really done about it.
We also had to ask for clean towels on our 2nd day as the cleaner had taken our dirty ones and not replaced them with any clean ones. The safe in the room was also useless, not working (again had to ask the host to fix it) was tiny and not bolted down, therefore could have just been picked up and taken - hardly a safe.
Apart from that the stay was great.
Safe didn’t work
Cleaner was not very friendly - didn’t t speak any english and when spoken to in Italian was rude
2nd shower head in the shower didn't work
