Everything was great, just as others have shared - apartment is on top and you need to climb narrow stairs so if you have big and heavy luggage it will be quite a challenge. If you have backpack or just small luggage which is not too heavy - you will be fine! 😉 In the apartment I would add maybe some plates as there were 2 cups though I was making salad and having plates will be really convenient as usual cutlery, but the plastic one worked too to cut the tomatoes 🍅 and made the salad in the salad bag ☺️👌✨ In this case, of course then detergent will be needed as an addition with a small sponge. Maybe liquid soap will be great to add, yet not necessary, just for the convenience. Trains going through are loud though that actually didn’t bother me at all somehow.

Amazing location, literally just stepped out from the train station and there is the appartment! ☺️ Very friendly and accommodating landlords, responsive and greet you in the train station. I came a bit with delay so took my keys in the train station info point which was convenient ☺️ Apartment has conditioning which is important in summer, also iron if you need to dress up going out and great shower, loved the pressure of the water. Once you step out of the apartment it is literally few minutes walk to the main city port and picturesque view. ☺️🌺✨ If you want you can also climb the trails around to see the beautiful city from above and in the evening it is for free to go for the sunset as in the day going Monterosso direction you need to pay 7,5€ to pass the trail.

The AC units in the rooms weren’t very effective. The one for our room specifically kept shutting off. It made sleeping comfortably difficult.

Centrally located, access to restaurants & shopping

Poor cooling unit which struggled to get below 22 degrees.

Excellent location on main street next to train station.

The location was great. In a place where steep climbs are the norm, it was great that the property was about 30 meters from the train station. From there, it was an easy walk to the water's edge. There is a cafe just next door, which means getting breakfast was easy too. The room was cosy and had the necessary storage for a couple of days' stay.

Easy check-in at the train station kiosk next door to the apartment. The accommodation was as described, no surprises. Clear, quick, helpful and reassuring responses from the host No stress!

The stairs! Also instead of a railing, there was a rope that took some getting used to. Shower was very tight, easy to bump the water temp control accidentally, and scald yourself, or the opposite. Very loud in the daytime due to trains and hoards of tourists, but earplugs at night and you’re good to go.

Good location, nice sized room although bed was tight in the space…tv, wifi, mini fridge, decent view of street activity below, and able to see train platform to know when it was busy… lady at the information desk that gave me my keys, helped me get into my room when I had difficulties, and helped bring my luggage up the three flights of stairs that I had not expected… Also, they sent a nice man to help me bring my luggage down the stairs when I checked out. Room cleaned very nicely but only every second day. Overall good, but warning of the stairs would have been helpful. For me they were a struggle.

We loved the location, 3 mins slow walk to the beach, 1 min to the station with easy access to the other villages on the Cinque Terre coast. The train station was a very busy place, with frequent services supplying and removing thousands of visitors every day. By 2300 all was quiet. It was telling that the host provides ear plugs for guests! The apartment is small, with no kitchenette facilities, just a kettle, a hairdryer and a small fridge, which was very cold. There is a very small COOP minimart three doors down, which is the only grocery store. It has the basics, bread, milk, wine, confectionery and some fruit. Prices are reasonable, given the location. Be aware there is no crockery, some plastic cutlery, no glasses and 2 coffee mugs. There is an iron but no ironing board, 2 bedside lamps with only 1 plug. There is no plug in the bathroom basin. Wifi and TV worked well. The bed was comfortable, some additional bedding would be useful, as the mornings were chilly. Despite the passing trains, which wasn’t a problem, the apartment is quiet and cosy. Also, visitors are to note there are 42 steep to very steep and very narrow steps leading to the apartment. Moving suit cases was not an easy task.

We had a great stay at Vernazza. The place is exactly how described, very clean and with all the amenities.

The AC was not good enough

The location, convenience and the balcony

Stayed in August 2024

A bit close to the train station, which can be good for travel, but is a little distracting in the evening. Can't beat the location proximity to the rest of the town though.

Excellent location within walking distance of everything in Vernazza.

It is too close to the train station and you hear the trains coming. It is a bit too loud but other than that it’s a good place to stay.

Very clean room with natural lighting. There is everything you need to use - iron, hairdryer, hot water heater.

For me nothing else

Loved the location. Loved the place. The stairs were very steep but the kind gentleman helped us . Remembered my daughter’s advice on the prudence of traveling light in cinqueterra.Perfect stay.

Literally….. the train goes right by the place! But if you are out all day and are just there to sleep no problem; when the windows are closed you can ignore it. If you were wanting to spend time in the apartment to relax, read or cook……find another place.

Very close to the train and it was easy to find.

It’s proximity to the train station made it a bit difficult to get a good nights rest - there were constant announcements throughout the night as well as the trains passing through.

The space was more then enough for a family of three. Loved the balcony.

It can be loud as you're right next to the train so you will hear alot throughout evening and early morning. The steps up to the room are quite narrow and the shower fan didn't work apart from that it is plain and simple and it's great for jumping between the different towns in the cinque terre.

Location was excellent, very close to train station and only short walk from marina and the rest of Vernazza, places to eat and shops.

Stayed in October 2023

We honestly can't think of anything.

The room is very close to the station but we found that to be a plus as it was right in the middle of the action. The trains also do not run throughout the night so we didn't find them a problem. The room was really well equipped with a kettle, chairs and a table, fridge, hanging space and a very comfortable bed. We were close to everything.

Stayed in October 2023

Didn’t like that there were no hand rails on most of the floors… had rope to hang on to.

Spacious, very clean, bed n pillows comfortable. Very easy to get to as it is literally beside the train station. The noise from trains did not bother us but some may find it too loud.

It's up 4 flights of really steep and narrow stairs (I've stayed in this place so I already knew that) so be aware! The place is starting to be a bit worn in places compared to the last time I stayed. The shower door was completely off of the track and I was afraid it was going to fall off. I told one of the staff and he just shook his head and shrugged (not typical of the response and careI have received in the past). The shelf in the bathroom is also loose. In the past there has been small bottles or little packets of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. There was nothing this time. Also no corkscrew in the kitchen. It still a nice place but some things need to be taken care of to bring the service and level of comfort back to what it was.

My fourth time staying in this lovely place. It's above the train station with a terrace that overlooks the main street. It's really nice and works well for 3 people. Staff is friendly and carried our bags up the steep stairs for us. It

We were initially taken aback by the fact that it is right next to the train station, however the double glazed windows completely shut out the noise. We slept like babies.

Very easy access to the station and all of the stores and restaurants. Enjoyed the balcony on the top level
