    Nothing. Everything was perfect.

    We had apartment 8 which was immaculate and had the most beautiful view. The staff were extremely friendly, attentive, helped with bags and the room and towels changed daily. We will definitely return.

    N/a (all as announced: small room - which fitted for us. Little window. Very centrally located but many stairs and no lift - but they help you with your luggage if needed)

    Perfect location, above the main square. Room 2 with partial seaview was nice and cute, with a little window on the harbour. Very helpful contact, they even organised a water kettle for us. Clean and everything as promised.

    A beautiful place to soak up La Dolce Vita in the Cinque Terre!

    Lots of stairs, it's on the top floor. We overpacked so that was mostly on us. The stairs are more than worth it for the incredible view that awaits outside your window.

    The location and view are incredible, hearing the ocean outside our open window was the best! Room was quite comfortable, you have to navigate the stairs but the staff was happy to help with out bags. Easy to get to the train station and you must check out La Pirata restaurant for breakfast. Wonderful town, wonderful hotel!!

    This property is the perfect supporting character in your Cinque Terre story.

    Yes, there are a large number of stairs culminating in the final flight being a spiral section that can be extra exciting if you’ve been drinking or are carrying luggage. Yes, the bathroom configuration can be awkward for some visitors, especially if you’re from the United States and accustomed to cookie-cutter hotel rooms. Yes, while perfectly comfortable, the rooms are on the smaller side. But if no stairs, giant bathrooms, and huge bedrooms are a requirement; Cinque Terre is probably not for you anyway. The beauty of this place is the quaint seaside villages, cut into the rugged Italian Riviera coastline. If you’re not collapsing into your bed every evening because of the satisfyingly exhausting adventures of the day, you’re doing it wrong.

    Our family rented 4 of the 6 rooms available on the top floor. Two of the rooms had on-suite bathrooms. Two rooms had detached bathrooms, but they were exclusively dedicated to our room and were only accessible with a key provided to the occupant. The air conditioning worked great during our visit in late July. The rooms and bathrooms were incredibly clean, with service completed everyday. The best feature was that it is located in Vernazza, which we feel is the best Village in Cinque Terre.

    We loved that this was essentially located hotel in the heart of all the restaurants and the beach.

    Limited space.

    Fantastic location right in the harbor, ideal for exploring Cinque Terre. The room was on the top floor under the roof – quite small, with only a skylight for a view, but view is on the harbor and sea. It got hot during the day, but the air conditioning worked well. Thanks to the shared bathroom and toilet, the price was very good compared to other places in the area. We used this accommodation during a two-day Cinque Terre trek and really appreciated the central location. A good budget option if you don’t mind limited space.

    Nil. Careful if you can’t climb stairs to get to a third floor with a narrow spiral staircase for the last flight.

    Well this was delightful. Yes we shared a bathroom but never had to wait or hurry up. Clean room with air conditioning. There is even a spiral staircase I am sure used by fishermen back in the day but this adds to the authentic. Alberto was a gentleman and shared knowledge of the area and his life which we appreciated. And when you open il Portone you are in the piazza overlooking the beach. Just a delight. A real feeling of Vernazza.

    The stairs are quite difficult to get to the check in and to the room. If you have any difficulties with strenuous physical activity or more baggage this may not be the place for you.

    The staff was excellent and communicative. They provided free beach towels when asked to go enjoy the beaches. The room was clean, air conditioned, with a safe and a beautiful view on top of that. Room was the perfect size for one person.

    The views from the hotel are spectacular—just open the window and you’re greeted by the sea and the coastline, with restaurants right downstairs. The owner was incredibly kind; knowing we were on our honeymoon, he upgraded us to a room with even better vistas. After we checked out the next morning, the hotel let us store our luggage free of charge while we set off on our hike.

    Everyone was so welcoming, the place is in front of the beach, it was clean and neat and comfortable. Great experience! Loved it. Vernazza is (along with Monterosso) the best of those towns to stay and then from there you can go to the others. Great if you are traveling with big bags!
