Family House La Spezia, 5Lands by train

The host is fantastic, she is helpful and responds quickly if you have any questions. The apartment is top notch with a small balcony and the location is perfect if you are going to visit the Cinque Terre, La Spezia or Porto Venere :-)

Beautiful apartment, excellent location very close to train station, restaurants and grocery stores. Excellent and prompt communication with property manager. We really enjoyed our stay in La Spezia and were easily able to travel to Cinque terre villages each day from this apartment

This is an AMAZING location! Our host was so so helpful , she responded within minutes to every request! We were even allowed to stay later to check out as we waited for our train! Way above and beyond being an excellent host, the check in was PERFECT and EASY. The apartment itself , is exactly as advertised with high ceilings and a beautiful wrap around balcony. It's right in the heart of the city but with balcony doors closed extremely peaceful. The A/C units worked perfectly, very simple, a remote for each unit. The entire apartment is clean with comfortable beds. We stayed here to visit Cinque Terre it is SO close to the station it was perfect to go visit the villages , but we also quickly fell in love with La Spezia itself as well, grocery store right around the corner and amazing restaurants and waterfront all within quick walk. We would DEFINITELY stay again! Thank you for an excellent stay

We loved the apartment in La Spezia. Andrea accommodated our arrival a day earlier than originally planned, which helped us spend 4 full days in the area. The apartment is very convenient – a 1-minute walk from La Spezia Centrale station, and at the terminus of La Spezia’s main walking street that runs all the way to the harbor (where you can catch boats daily to Cinque Terre, Porto Venere, etc.). This street has lots of shops and restaurants, and there is also a Carrefour grocery store around the corner. The apartment itself is excellent, and is among the better VRBO units we rented during our three weeks in Italy. It was roomy enough for our family of four, though we mostly just slept, showered and ate breakfast there. The interior is newly and tastefully remodeled, with full sets of dishes, coffee maker, etc. It has some large doors that open onto balconies where you can sit in the evenings or hang clothes to dry. The windows are all new double-pane windows that capably shut out the sound of the road and trains. AC was being added to the apartment the day we left, which should allow the windows to stay closed when it’s hot out – pretty important in the summer months. Andrea was very communicative and welcoming, and really wanted to make sure we had a great visit. When we left, we accidentally left behind some items, and she had those priority mailed to our next destination! We really enjoyed the local restaurants – especially La Roma Ristorante (right across the street) and La Paloma (Corniglia). If you plan to visit Cinque Terre, I’d highly recommend this apartment for your stay.
