The hotel was so close to train access that it made getting to Cinque de Terre so easy. The hotel was darling and had a cool vibe that was so welcoming. Breakfast was outstanding and well appreciated!

The location was excellent for our trip to Cinque Terre, an easy walk to the train station. The staff were lovely and helpful. Parking was tight even for our small rental car but it was doable and super convenient to the hotel. You have to reserve in advance as there are only a few spaces. We also loved the prosecco we got as VIP Expedia members. It was a fun stay.

This hotel is close to train station (7 minutes walk) and shopping street (lot of restaurants to choose). Staff are mostly young, energetic and friendly females. Our bed is comfortable and shower cube is very spacious. Breakfast is great for everyone. We stayed there for two nights and enjoyed our stay very much.

Good location for Station, shops and restaurants. Weather was great but hotel hadn’t switched from heating to A/C so we were too hot indoors - end of April 25. No tea or coffee in room was disappointing. Rest was good.
