Fantastic location - if you like loud music

Fantastic location, right in the heart of Levanto. So many restaurants and cafes very close by. A 10 minute walk to the train station for easy access to Cinque Terre. Right across from the beach.

We booked an apartment for 4 people. There was only 1 bedroom with a double bed and then 2 people had to sleep on the sofa bed which was located in the kitchen. It was so uncomfortable, the metal bar on the sofa mattress hurt our backs. Also the apartment is located directly above a bar that plays very loud music until 1am every night, making the floor vibrate and so loud it's hard to sleep at all. This should be disclosed prior to booking.

Great location, clean room with air con and comfortable stay. Check-in is not clear, and meant we wasted 3 hours waiting

The room was clean, and in a great location close to the beach and restaurants.

Check-in was not clear. You pick up the keys from a different location (down the road in a tourist centre) but this closes from 12-3:30pm. I was not sent this information, I found out from another guest also having the same issue. There were also two key pick-up addresses so ended up walking the streets of Levanto/asking in shops restaurants as the instructions were not clear. We then had 3 hours to wait with luggage before we could check-in.

Bird-toilet car

I left the car in the PAID garage for 4 days. Birds enjoyed using it as a public loo so much that they turned it into a fascintaing black-and-white-spotted canvas. Next time, install a hose with a nozzle near the entrance — at least then I'll be able to see the road.

Excellent accomodation

Excellent location near the sea and city center. The room is big, has air conditioning or heating , a large bathroom and big windows. It’s an apartment transformed in a 4 room rental unit, each room with its own bathroom the hallway is the common space with a Coffe machine.

Lovely terrace! The beach, restaurants, bars, gelaterias, supermarket is on the doorstep.

The location and the terrace was amazing!

Check all the comments carefully

Room was clean

1 - key pick up location is not convenient if you have a car or motorbike, 2 - key pick up time is inflexible 3 - touch pad. Key entry - works randomly - expect to waste 10 minutes to get it working 4 - I booked it as it stated it had a sun terrace - don’t get fooled 2 rooms out of 4 do - so 50/50 if your a gambler 5 - ont expect any local information from the local agency

6.0 / 10.0

Good location but very noisy

Good location, close to the beach, all the cafes and also the train station. So its perfect if you want to visit cinque terre. Clean and minimal room. The place is easy to find as the instructions provided by the staff are very clear.

The apartment is above the bar and the noisy street so its almost impossible to have a good night sleep. Even with the windows closed the noise was very frustrating both at night and in the morning. The walls of the building are also very thin so you hear erverything in your room.

6.0 / 10.0

Pleasant

The staff is very nice, the appartment is very well located and very well cleaned everyday.

However, the booking said that parking was included but it was not, it costed around 100eur to park the car. Also, the appartment is just about a coktail bar which is very nice but it is noisy at night. Also we thought that breakfast was included but it was not, but it might actually be my fault when booking.

No support, took 1 hour to find, needed passersby help me, and a 24 character WiFi password? RUS?

I liked a restaurant down the street that I found after walking around the block. I like the help that I got from local passersby who helped me find the agency (it was closed, and I had no idea where it was) to get the key, and then located the property for me (there was no signs, no indication that it was a rental room). Without the help of these people, I would have slept in my car.

The lack of help from the property. Yes, they sent an email with an address for an agency, but the agency was closed by the time I showed up. It took me an hour to find this place, and if it weren't for some kind passersby that helped find the agency, then helped me find the property, I would probably still be looking for it. And the WiFi? With a 24 random character password? Are you serious?

Superb

The location was perfect, just across the road from the beach and beside lots of bars, cafes and restaurants.. It was about 10min walk to the train station which has excellent links up and down the coast. Large balcony and all very clean.

The wifi was very poor and didnt work most of the time

5.0 / 10.0

Beautifully appointment modern room above an all night noisy bar. Dissapointed.

Comfortable sized room and great spacious bathroom. Modern finishes throughout. Best shower! The apartment is very close to the beach and many restuarants and gelato shops. The noisy bar below unfortunately over rules all the upsides of this stay.

The room is directly above a bar. When I pointed this out, I was told the bar would stop playing music at around 11pm, which is the local law however the music was still going at 4am. I never read about the bar or noise in any of the reviews. In order to go to sleep each night we put the aircon on full blast to drown out the outside noise. I was not impressed. A beautiful apartment, close to the beach but far too noisy. I can not recommend this stay. There is no kettle in the room, you have to go to the end of the passage to a coffee machine. No milk. Bad luck for tea drinkers.

5.0 / 10.0

Passable

Great location

I specifically asked if I could check in early, was told that was fine so I planned my train around an early check in, when I arrived the office (where you pick the keys up) was closed and had another 2.5 hours before it opened. I was then stuck sitting with my bags waiting for the office to open. If the office was going to be closed for 3 hours they should have told me this when I requested the early check in and I could have taken an even earlier train. I emailed and called them and got a rude email back telling me it was my fault I showed up when the office was closed. I was not the only person this happened to, there were a few other people waiting in the same situation as me. very poor organisation and given the price, the service should have been much better.

6.0 / 10.0

Small, loud space in a great location

It is centrally located, feels safe and was mostly very clean.

We were surprised to find that this property was more like a basic hotel room than an apartment. It is one room divided into two spaces. Contrary to what we saw in the listing, there is no kitchen or terrace. There is little floor space. The beds and pillows are very hard. The AC takes a while to cool off the side of the room with the bunk beds. The room was clean except for a hair or two on the bunkbed pillows. There was housekeeping service which we did not expect but appreciated. The location is excellent except that it is right over a bar that plays loud music until at least 12:30 am. When the music ends, the loud talking continues until 3 am. We were unable to sleep through this.

8.0 / 10.0

A very pleasant stay in a very well located apartment, would stay again :)

The room and bathroom were very modern and overall really nice.

I think maybe the drain needed to be cleaned because there was often quite a bad smell coming from the sink and shower. The hole in the sink had no cover and you could see the mouldy build up down it.

7.0 / 10.0

overall ok

location is great, few steps and you’re at the beach room was very clean and good maintained

Room bed. We got some bad i juries from bed metal corners which remain covered (pictures added; in room picture it is not covered but in reality it is so you don’t see the edge). Check-in is on other address which comes annoying when you travel on big temperatures and there is not any note at the accommodation location about it. later we saw in Booking message a reference, but we mapped accommodation location as final destination.

8.0 / 10.0

Great choice for first time visitors!

The location is perfect: everything is just a few steps away (including the beach, restaurants, bars, pharmacies, supermarket, gift shops, even the train station is pretty close). The room is nice and clean, the view is amazing and we had everything we needed (toiletries, towels, coffee, tea, mini fridge, the AC, etc)

The reception is on a whole different location from the building you’re staying in which is a bit confusing to first time visitors. The bed is a bit squeaky and it might be a bit hard to fall asleep in a bed like that. All in all, the price is a bit high for the room you’re getting (bed, private bathroom and a shared kitchenette).

location

parking too difficult too find and space too small for big cars. loud music from the bar below the apartment.

7.0 / 10.0

For the party and beach!

Clean, fresh, good standard. Very supportive personnel . Close to the beach. For parking we recommend to use EasyPark and look for area 663 Galli, cost €7.20/day while all other areas in Levanto cost €24/day (see picture).

Maybe too central location, straight above a great bar. (We knew it in advance, they played music until 01:00, then people continue party. We got easily used to it, and their play list was great - believe me, it could have been far worse 😄)

Great base for levanto or cinque terre visit

Great location, at the heart of levanto seafront. Beach was 2 min walk. Parking available on booking. Small fridge in the room and air con.

No window in the bathroom made it feel quite damp, but extractor fan helped.

There is nothing to complain at all. Everything was awesome! Really enjoyed to the apartment.

Perfect location (Close to beach and bar/restaurants) Clean apartment and bathroom Nice terrace Helpful staff You have everything you need in apartment

Could be a bit noisy for the ones who are sensitive to noise during night. That wasn't issue for us but you can hear some music from the pub below apartment and noise from the road.

Fantastic apartment located in the heart of Levanto, first row to the the beach. Clean and spacious. The biggest plus was the huge terrace.

8.0 / 10.0

Very good

They were in a central location. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff did a good job of accommodating us. While our van did not fit in their parking they were able to direct us to multiple alternate locations.

Photos showed a full kitchen but there was none in the rooms we were provided. Also, being near the beach, we would have liked a broom available so that we could sweep when needed. We would have liked to have extra blankets because of the cooler weather.

7.0 / 10.0

Centrally located, close to the beach, though facilities and communication can be improved

Location is very central, less than 5 min walk to the beach, 10 mins to the pier and 15 mins to the train station. Apartment is on a bustling street with many eating options (make sure to book in advance though!) The room was clean, shower pressure was excellent and beds were comfortable.

No set up to eat in the rooms, no shared kitchen facilities either. The mini refrigerator in the room didn't seem to work very well. We had decided against paying for breakfast based on existing reviews, but the yoghurt and milk we packed went bad because the fridge was too warm. It was also pretty inconvenient to be asked to return to the office multiple times: picking up keys, to be told where the parking is, and then pay the tax charge. This really could have been done in one trip. Yes, the office is a 5-minute walk from the apartment but driving to either is not straightforward (navigating where to stop to load/unload our things etc), and for a weekend holiday we didn't want to take so much time going back and forth. It would have been very helpful if we had been informed from the start, when we requested access to the private parking advertised for EUR16, that this is located next to the office, not the apartment.

Absolutely loved it! Best place to stay in Levanto

Everything was just perfect. Perfect location, brand-new furnishing, superb cleanliness and comfort. Kitchen was fully equipped, the terrace is huge and staff was super friendly! Would love to come back at any given time. Thank you so much! Btw, the music from the bar below is not disturbing (especially when you sleep with open windows to listen to the sounds of the sea).

The pillows are really very fat and uncomfortable to sleep on. That's the only thing that we can comment on in a slightly negative way.
