A wonderful place
This is like a home stay and the host, Cherry is awesome, She picked us up from the station, have given us all the details about local sightseeing. The room is big, has a nice balcony and you get a cool panoramic view of the mountain and sea. The breakfast was awesome and the property is too clean and tidy. You will get a refrigerator inside room. I will love to stay here again, once I make a plan for Monterosso, Cinque Terre.This stay was actually beyond my expectation.

Cherry, the owner, is lovely and welcoming. She picked us up from the train and took us up to the property. Access to the town and beach is otherwise via 170 steps down to street level and then a short walk. Cherry stocked the minifridge with complimentary beverages, and in the morning, she had tables set and a selection of breads, cheese, croissants and yogurts to choose for breakfast. The room and washroom were clean, and stocked with towels and soap/shampoo. We enjoyed our short stay!

Great location only a 5 minute walk to the town but this is after a lot of steps going down to the bottom of the apartments. Be prepared for lots of steps walking back up to the room.

Cherry was a most gracious host. The room was very clean, modern, with nice decor. It had a nice balcony with a view. It was in the newer part of town and about a 10 minute walk from the train station. It was another 5-10 minute walk along the coast to the older town center. We loved the quiet location with the frogs chirping at night and birds singing in the morning. Room was cleaned and Bedding and towels were changed daily Fresh fruit and bottled water were provided in the room. A nice variety of good food was available for breakfast, even when we had to leave to catch a train before 7 am. We were traveling light, so the 176 even terra cotta steps from the street to the room was not a problem for us after hiking from Vernazza. Grazie for a great stay, Cherry!

The place is very clean. The towels are clean and doesn’t feel or look worn. Cherry is very friendly. she was able to accommodate our early checkin and late checkout. Her breakfast has varied selections. Her recommendation for restaurants were excellent. The view from our balcony was priceless. After traveling for many days, this was a great way to end our trip.

Beautiful apartment in a quiet neighborhood The ocean view was pretty as is the hillside across from the room! Cherry helped us on arrival and departure which made the hillside setting easy for us. February weather was surprisingly sunny and warm and we felt lucky to enjoy the beautiful scenery without the “normal summer crowds”. Highly recommend

Modern apartment - Great host!
A great modern B&B with very friendly host. Cherry is a very nice local lady and picked us up from the train station as we let her know in advance of our train arrival (you will received an email from her after booking). Apartment is clean and spacious with gorgeous sea views. Cherry's breakfast is generous and buffet style. As she clearly notes, when walking up from the station, there are a significant number of stairs (160+) so only book if you can handle this. Not a problem for us as we were ready for hiking. WiFi is a little weak in the room but we managed. Would highly recommend staying with Cherry.

The owner, Cherry, was very nice and accommodating, including rides to and from the train station and an early breakfast on the day we left. This room is centrally located in Monterosso and is very homey. It does have 175 steps to walk up to the room, however, I was able to do it (with frequent rest stops) and I'm not a person used to that much steps :). Overall a good place.

It Was OK
It was ok. Room layout a bit strange. No chairs inside for sitting and reading except at small table. No view from terrace as advertised. Outside patio nice but cluttered with work stuff. A lot of steps to get anywhere.

Best host ever
Cherry is the most gracious host we have ever encountered. We asked if we could come early and leave bags and she asked what time our train arrived and picked us up with our heavy bags and drove us up the hill to the room which was beautiful. An excellent place to stay. Many stairs up from the road but they are new tile with many landings so not a bad climb. We had to leave early and she had breakfast ready early and drove us to the train station. This is a great place to stay!

Nice B&B!
Nice bed and breakfast. My husband and I stayed here for 3 days. Owner picked us up at train station and brought us to her place which was awesome! Cherry ( owner) made great recommendations for restaurants and things to do. Breakfast was simple but good! Room had AC, everything was clean and she came in once a day to make your bed and clean your room. Stairs to get to her place so you must be mobile.

View-tastic!!
I like that they pick you up when you get off the train because there are a lot of steps to get to the room. The room was a welcome stay after the hustle and bustle of Venice. We slept with the patio doors wide open! Love the view is vineyards and hearing the rooster. I also loved breakfast. Lots of options. Excellent stay.

Lovely hillside hotel with great customer service
I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was at Affittacamere Alle 5 Terre! Our room had a balcony with a lovely view of the sea and the hillsides. The room and the public spaces were quite stylish with lots of original art. We enjoyed a tasty and varied breakfast during our stay. And then there was Cherry, our warm and fabulous hostess. She picked us up at the train station when we arrived and brought our luggage to us at the train station at the end of our last day in the Cinque Terra. Now that's outstanding customer service! The location may be an issue for some, but not for me and my wife. Getting back to the hotel after a night out was a short walk from Monterosso's old city, involving climbing several flights of stairs (the price you pay for the beautiful view). I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a lovely Cinque Terra stay (as long as you can climb stairs. Getting a cab in Monterosso seemed quite difficult). My wife and I would definitely stay here again if we return to Monterosso.

24 hours in Monterosso
Cherry was an amazing host! She had accommodations for us to park our SUV rental car, drove us there to leave the car, drove us back up with our luggage, then drove us to town for dinner! She then picked us up from dinner and allowed us to take our time in town. She encouraged us to sleep in and text her when we were ready for her to make breakfast, which ended up being 10:30am. That day she allowed us to leave our luggage in one of the rooms all day since we were doing the Cinque Terre walk. We did not return until 8pm and she didn't mind at all! She allowed us to clean up there too before getting our car and leaving Monterosso that night. Amazing hospitality and would highly recommend! Need to be able to climb steps well (176 to get to town) but that is the case for most of the city.

5 star service
The owner, Cherry, provided us with 5 star service. We called her the day of arrival and she picked us up from the train station. Our last day we had to take the train at 6:45am and although breakfast wasn't served until 8am, she served the entire breakfast at 6am and drove us to the train station at 6:30. Accommodations were comfortable and what you would expect for 3 stars. We had air conditioning, private bath, and a balcony with view of the ocean. Breakfast was great with meat, cheese, cereals, eggs, fruit, torts, coffee. The exper was above expectations.

Nice hotel close to attractions
The B&B provided a small but adequate and clean room.The breakfast was good as well. A key feature regarding this B&B is that Cherry, the lady in charge of the rooms, sent me a text the day before we arrived, asking when we would arrive in Monterosso and in response to my reply suggested a place and time for her to pick us up. This, I think, is quite important for three reasons: one, if a time isn't agreed upon to meet Cherry, she may not be present at the B&B when you arrive and there would be no way to enter the building; two, it is somewhat difficult to find the B&B on your own; and three, it is quite a hike uphill from the town to the establishment, particularly lugging luggage. But all these difficulties are removed given the consideration of Cherry to pick you up and deliver you to your room and set you up with keys and information regarding breakfast. She was most helpful. You get a nice view too from the lofty height that the B&B is situated at. Of course, there is the price that one has to climb about 10 stories of stairs each time you return home. We enjoyed our stay and would choose Affittacamare Alle 5 Terre again for another trip to Cinque Terre.

Great Place, the Steps are Worth It
This was a great find in a beautiful location. Our host, Cherry, was very friendly and helpful, even meeting us near the train station to drive our bags up to the top of the hill for check in. It is a long walkup to the B&B, but after all of the walking that everyone seems to do in the Cinque Terre area, the steps are a minor climb. Clean, nice room, great shower, great breakfast. Just an excellent place to stay.

This was an excellent experience. Our host was gracious enough to pick us up and deliver us to the train station so that we would not need to climb any stairs with our luggage....very kind. Did I mention stairs....there are a lot of stairs but they are well constructed....evenly spaced and sturdy....not a problem. Our room was comfortable, had a wonderful view and was full of charm..will highly recommend to our friends and family.

Convenient bed & breakfast
This location is more like a Bed & Breakfast than a hotel. You're in a cozy space with your own locked room and private bath. You are in a neighborhood/residential area. Be forewarned that you are climbing A LOT of stairs at this location, but the owner will very graciously pick you up at the train station and drive you to the top of the hill so you are only taking a few stairs down to the room, instead climbing a bunch of stairs up. Only about a 8-minute walk from the train station. Very convenient and quiet. Great breakfast with yogurt, granola, pastries, juice.

The cross breeze off the sea was incredible. A bowl of fresh fruit, a liter of fruit juice, and bottled water was available all the time. The breakfast of cheese, meat, eggs, yogurt, pastry, fruit and coffee was great. Upon checkout, the owner drove us to the station for an early train. You must be reasonably fit to walk the hill to the bottom of the building and then 177 steps up. The

Large comfortable room
We greatly appreciated the roominess - a small kitchen area, sitting room, etc. This is so much better that a traditional hotel room. The staff was equally generous, providing a breakfast for our early departure and, most importantly, transporting us to the train station because taxis did not operate that early.

Excellent B & B.
Cherry picked us up & drove us to the top with our luggage. Amazing view. Clean, Nnicely appointed & spacious room. The breakfast was excellent. We did have hiking questions re: the UPPER trails of the Cinque Terre which were not answered adequately to get us going where we were headed. Spent 1.5 hours locating the trailhead on foot- prior to a vigorous all day hike where we saw no one, so we did not do the "usual" hiking! That said, definitely nail down the trailhead before you stay here, but otherwise, DELIGHTFUL.

Great location, good views
Alle5terre is a steep climb above Monterosso and you need to be quite fit to stay here or pay to get up and down the steep road. The room had a balcony with views around the hills and to the sea. The owner Cherry was very nice and helpful. Monterosso is a really nice village and has a beach that was very well populated during our stay. There are plenty of places to eat and drink nearby and the train station is a short walk but steep climb away. Overall we enjoyed staying at Alle5 terre.
