Reviews of Punto Zero

Place itself was very charming and had a nice view. Owner and staff were kind. It was clean.

Shower went from really cold to really hot. Shared bathroom, which I hadn’t noticed on booking.com when I booked. Had to park my car 600 meters away from the hotel and with a heavy suitcase it was a disaster. Also lots of stairs to get to the place. Owner was nice, but I noticed that the other locals were very grumpy to tourists. And I get it, there were a lot of tourists.

The balcony was lovely, whilst it was shared every time I wanted to use it I had it to myself. It’s in a great location for getting down to the sea. Nicole was very friendly and super helpful and provided recommendations and booked a boat trip for me.

Location was very good for us as close to places of interest. Great view from bedroom window balcony

Owner made it very difficult for us to get into apartment as we turned up later than expected and that was out of our control. Rude on phone but eventually she got into gear and arranged for a friend to let us into the unit.

Quiet town, great view, very clean - especially the bathroom 🤩

My only possible complaint was that the bed was quite hard but that was common among all our accommodations in Italy!

The staff were helpful in recommending restaurants and getting reservations.

This is not the place to stay if you are an older person. There are numerous stairs to navigate getting there. Then you have to go up a very narrow staircase to get to your room. It was supposed to have a partial sea view. What that actually meant is if you stuck your head out the window you then had a partial sea view.

I loved the shared balcony with clothes lines. I could have sat there forever. You can see the town, the hillside of grapevines and the sea and it was always a good sunset. Quiet neighborhood. Loved the town, especially in the am and pm.

I had thought I was getting my own balcony but the shared one was nice enough. The bathroom and balcony are up the steep marble stairs

Overall, the place was clean and nice. The view through the window was just great. We also appreciated the possibility to make hot drinks.

Drying the towels was a bit an issue, possibly because of the season - just before the heating started. For the place that does not offer breakfast, would be good to have some plates and cutlery.

It was really close to the beach. Very comfortable and clean.

People could look into the bathroom through the window but then we realized there were shutters that you could close to make it private.

Corniglia was such a little gem of a spot and our room was in the ideal location! With a window view of the mountain side and the ocean, we woke up to fresh air and stunning views every morning. It was also a short walk to a little alcove swimming spot that almost felt like a private beach, and close to all the local restaurants and bars. Nicole was a very helpful and responsive host. We'd definitely stay again!

Be prepared to eat out or bring no perishables, as there's no fridge or kitchen facilities at the accommodation which didn't bother us too much.

The location. This was good. Armando’s help was good and appreciated.

The size of the room - very squashed and the steep stairs to the shared bathroom. The bath mat was not changed once snd should be each day with do many sharing. The “kitchen facility“ was almost a joke.

very close together restaurants, nice view from terrace

a refrigerator would be convenient

Great location, very clean.

Has the bathroom on a second floor, but we managed fine.

Very clean, comfortable, well-supplied with shower gel etc. A good view of the hill village and the hill opposite and if you leaned right out of the window you could see the sea. Good air conditioning, very important in the heat. A comfortable stay in a quiet spot away from the busy main street which is also important otherwise you are kept awake by late night diners and drinkers. This was very quiet, around the side of the hill with only a few people walking past. Nicole was very efficient at communicating and sent a good video to show how to find the room though. Answered very promptly, which helps if you are a stranger to the place.

It did seem a lot of money for a single traveller, 143 euros. I hadn't spotted the 20 euros extra for cleaning the room when I booked it so it was a bit of a shock. In Florence I only paid 70 euros for a much larger room, and in Pistoia I paid 76 for an amazingly large room including a marvellous breakfast. But I think it must be that the Cinque Terre is expensive generally and often places charge you the full rate for a double room even though it is single occupancy. Also, I preferred the accommodation which you got to meet the owner. Waiting for 20 minutes in the hot midday sun with no shelter for the crowded bus up to the village was an ordeal. A bus every ten minutes would have sorted out the long queue - people were pushing and shoving to get on it because it was so hot waiting - no shade to wait in. That is not the fault of the accommodation but a point to make to the local Tourist Board! I would have walked but I had heavy luggage.

It was clean and neat. Perfect for us as a couple and the views were amazing.

Everything was perfect, nothing negative

Cozy room with a sea view in the most authentic of the cinque terre towns (Corniglia). Comfortable stay and a great starting point for hiking the more challenging trails.

No garbage bin or towel hooks in the shared bathroom. The shared balcony is directly outside the shared bathroom window 😕.
