Wake'nBake flat

The place was super clean and tidy, the host was really friendly, and it was in a great spot—easy to find too

We drove to the property but found no parking—street spots were full . We parked between cars, but by morning ours was the only one left and had a parking ticket. Although the host was very friendly, we didn’t realise when we booked that the bathroom is shared with the host , as they live in the other room of the same apartment.

All I liked about this offer was the price. But it was with the seasonal discount and my account discount. If I had paid the regular price for this I would have been extremely disappointed.

It all started with the checkin system. My host provided a link to a site where I had to go through a simple procedure. After the standard questionnaires, the system asked me to pay city tax plus a commission. The fact that this commission was not mentioned anywhere in advance was the first thing, it was small and the host deducted it. The problem was that the city tax I had to pay was calculated incorrectly. For some reason I had to pay twice as much. Host said he couldn't do anything about it and would give me a cash refund. I paid double tax, I still don't understand why. The apartment is very inconveniently located. The neighborhood is full of cars. Pedestrian accessibility is practically nil. It was very uncomfortable to get to the apartment. Finally, the neighbors. I don't know if they had rented a room under the same conditions as me or something else, but the level of discomfort was high, also due to the layout of the apartment itself. I should rightly point out that the apartment is not badly furnished with new things. However, the apartment is not comfortable, cozy or functional. The closet in the room I lived in was full of someone else's clothes. The question is why? The kitchen was dirty when I moved in.

Although breakfast is not provided by house owner, I appreciate their kindness and willingness to help whenever I need anything. They have consistently shown a supportive attitude, and I'm grateful for their hospitality

My Personal Experience: As a first-time traveler to Genoa, I encountered an unsettling experience upon arrival. Reaching the city at 2:20 am, I found navigating the area challenging. The taxi driver refused to enter Via Silvio Bellotti, dropping me at the entrance instead of my destination. Unfortunately, my attempts to contact the house owner went unanswered. As a foreigner from India with no knowledge of Italian, I felt vulnerable and frightened. Lesson Learned: If you're new to Genoa and don't speak Italian, avoid arriving at night. Ensure you have necessary information and support before traveling. As an international traveler from India, I felt scared and disoriented. From Fright to Delight: My arrival at the guest house in Genoa was met with unexpected challenges, leaving me feeling scared and uncertain. However, the next morning brought a welcome change. The lady managing the guest house turned out to be incredibly helpful and supportive throughout my 7-day stay. Her kindness and assistance greatly alleviated my initial concerns, making my time in Genoa truly enjoyable. Her exceptional hospitality demonstrated the warmth and generosity of the Italian spirit, leaving a lasting impression on my trip.

In this house, you live in a room that the family also uses sometimes. So, it's designed for living, not for taking money from guests: large space, large bed, working space, evrything new and works well. The kitchen and the bathroom are amazing, again, all the stuff you need, new and cleen. I lived with a nice lady, owner's mother, and had a chance to practice my Italian. Definitely worth it - the price is not much more then of a hostel, but the comfort is far beyond.

The house itself is built on a steep slope and in the way that you hear everything that your neighbours do - non only from the flats up and down, but from the whole yard. Living with an owner is probably a thing that not everyone would be happy with.
