Guest Reviews
- Livia (9/5): Gorgeous view, needs a small comfortable place to sit/hang out - The location was amazing Needs a couch or seating area other than the kitchen table for comfort
- Inigo Cano (6/5): Cuando cuidas al maximo a tu cliente. Eso es lujo, y entonces sí puedes cobrar lo que te de la gana. - Buena ubicacion, amplitud de la habitacion, equipamiento y terraza Tendrian que avisar que es un quinto sin ascensor! La funda del colchon es insufrible (de esas de plastico y ruidosas) La ubicacion que tienen en booking parece para engañar al cliente. No está encima del acantilado ni al lado del mirador. Calefaccion no disponible. Te cobran hasta por el agua y el cafè (ridículo, pero es un feo detalle)
- miriam (5/5): - The room was exactly as shown website . Spectacular reviewed from the balcony! It was my fault for not reading previous reviews, so did not expect the challenging six flights of stairs (82 steps)!!! Which is very challenging when you're carrying two heavy suitcases, especially the last flight where the steps are very steep. I feel this should be mentioned on their advertising site as there is no lift.
- Jason (9/5): The view from the room was worth the steps! - We stayed in the luxury apartment-Penthouse-Seaview Terrace and enjoyed it. The host provides you with all the information needed via what’s app. Do not complain about the steps since the town is on the side of cliffs. You will climb some steps and if you have done your research, you realize Riomaggiore is all steps. I recommend not bringing a suitcase. You will carry the suitcase. There are no elevators on this property. The Seaview from the room was worth the price. From check-in to check-out, the process was easy. Your room gets cleaned every day with fresh linen. This place received some bad reviews on google and Booking.com however, we did not experience anything negative except our coffee maker did not work. We just went to a local restaurant and got coffee. Not the end of the world. All the bad reviews were about steps, cold water, poor host response, and location. None of these issues happened to us. I would rebook this location. Coffee maker didn't work. That's it. The host was notified, host responded with trouble-shooting ideas. The electric plug did not work.
- Marion (10/5): Génial ! - L’emplacement, les équipements, la propreté des lieux, le confort Rien sauf les escaliers mais qui mérite d’être montés pour admirer la vue !
- Jones (10/5): Amazing location, amazing views and the best sunsets in Cinque Terre. - Amazing location!! The view from the balcony is the BEST in Riomaggiore. The room was a good size and the bathroom was clean and modern. Loved this accommodation so much. The access is steep- but we knew this, so were expecting it. The stairs are more like a ladder- so all luggage needs to be hauled up the steep entry.
- caroline (5/5): - L emplacement Les housses alèses des lits L odeur de la baignoire
- Sam (10/5): Magnificent couldn’t recommend more - The view may be the best in Cinque Terra!!! Was amazing Has a few steps but for cinque terra it isn’t bad at all.
- Giulia (8/5): -
- Carlos Boanerges (8/5): -
- Helmut (5/5): na ja, geht so, nur aufgrund der Aussicht und Lage - Traumhafte Lage, toller Ausblick, tägliche Reinigung sehr gut. Zimmer in die Jahre gekommen, grenzwertiger Treppenaufgang (mit Gepäck kaum zu schaffen) Handlauf im Treppenhaus beschädigt. TV funktioniert nicht. Kühlschrank auf Stellung 3 -Eisbildung - auf Stellung 2 taut ab (Wasser auf dem Boden). Schimmelbildung an Zimmerdecke. Nur 1 Stuhl und 1 Sessel (unnötig) im Raum. Sehr laute Klimaanlage (obwohl ausgeschaltet).
- MARINA (8/5): - La posizione della struttura è fantastica, credo la vista migliore sul borgo e sul mare. Molto bella anche la ristrutturazione e gli arredi di design. Pulizia molto accurata Il problema principale sono le scale di accesso per arrivare al 4° piano, tre rampe sono molto pericolose, soprattutto per chi viaggia con un cane di media taglia. Gli scalini sono altri praticamente 30 cm e l'appoggio per il piede è minimo.
- YAN (9/5): 下次去还会选择，不过只会背个双肩包 - 非常喜欢的一线海景，干净的房间，温馨舒适，民宿竟然也每天打扫房间 没有需要改进的了，只是提醒未来的住客，千万不要拖着行李箱，第一次去的会惊讶这个上下坡和民宿的楼梯
- Carla drewes (9/5): - Las vistas eran espectaculares. Eras parte de la postal No tiene heladera como tal solo un frigobar. No era problema porque fui una noche pero para una estadía mas larga y en verano podría serlo. Son muchas escaleras ir con una mochila o bolso
- Maithreyi (10/5): -

- Carolina (9/5): - The rooms are newly decorated so it was very nice to stay here. The view they have is amazing. The staff was very helpful and replied right away for everything Be prepared for stairs and no elevator. I would recommend not taking any lugagge and instead just have a backpack.
- Sara (9/5): -
- Karma (8/5): Great location! Would be a 10/10 when they fix those few minor things! - Location absolutely perfect! Nice balcony to look at sunset! Like the other reviews mentioned a few little updates are needed. The only negative (mainly just annoying) is housekeeping banging on the door the day of checkout an hour before it was time to go, then back 15 minutes before it was time to go. Obviously when ur trying to get ready and pack super annoying! Just come AFTER it is time to checkout! Just needs a few updates/ fixes like ceiling . Etc
- Severine (10/5): Magnifique vue - L’emplacement et la vue
- jessica (4/5): Bien situé mais très vieux - Situé avec une belle vue Beaucoup de poussière Beaucoup d’escaliers Pas super propre Plus petit que les photos Pas de transat comme indiqué sur les photos
- Joanna (10/5): - Wspaniały obiekt, rewelacyjne widoki, najlepsza lokalizacja na zachód słońca! Taras jest duży, pokój również , łazienka bardzo czysta. Wszystko nam się podobało! Riomaggiore to najpięknieszy miasteczko i koniecznie nocleg w tym apartamencie ( jest ekspres do kawy, lodówka ). Bardzo polecam:)
- pietro (8/5): una stupenda soluzione per godere delle 5 terre... ( con qualche rimediabile problema..) - voto massimo con lode : posizione strepitosa sul porticciolo , con terrazzo e vista mozzafiato sul mare, il paese e i tramonti, appartamento su due piani davvero molto bello e raffinato, pulito e funzionale note dolenti, la prima non rimediabile, le altre si…. chi conosce la Liguria sa che le case hanno scale ripide, ma queste in particolare sono da free climber, e per persone non allenate, e magari con bagagli pesanti, sono impossibili da salire: non si può certo rimediare, ma si può avvertire perché uno possa decidere se sono adatte alla propria situazione fisica .. e a proposito delle scale, comuni agli altri affittacamere del palazzo ( le 5 terre sono un vespaio di locazioni private) , erano sporchissime, davvero imbarazzanti… ( ogni tanto magari qualcuno che ricava soldi dagli affitti potrebbe controllare )… dopodiché, per la durata del soggiorno abbiamo avuto il sacco della biancheria sporca proprio davanti alla porta di ingresso ( tutto documentato) , sul terrazzino ( carinissimo) staziona un ombrellone inutilizzabile perché completamente rotto. Dulcis in fundo, si fa per dire , è inaccettabile che una camera con questo genere di tariffe offra le cialde per il caffè a pagamento ( !!!) e non comprese nel prezzo ( mai capitato in anni di viaggi in tutto il mondo ) Vorrei precisare che non è una questione di soldi, ma di sensibilità e mentalità: in una location che si definisce luxury acqua di cortesia, cialde e bustine per le tisane gratuite sono il minimo sindacale. Un ultimo consiglio, un appartamento così ben realizzato ( lo dico da professionista) avrebbe bisogno di una più attenta manutenzione ( vernici scrostate ed entrambe le abat - jour rotte… e il frigorifero toglietelo dal passaggio!)
- Osvaldo (6/5): - Prior my arrival I called the host several times, but he never answered my phone calls. I had a hard finding the property. This room is at a four floor without elevator. The closest parking garage is a few blocks away. The town is gorgeous.
- Gregory (10/5): -
- Pamela (10/5): Atardecer increíble - La vista y lo moderno del alojamiento Mucha escalera
- Werner (3/5): Top Lage, ziemlich heruntergekommen. Viel zu teuer. - Die Bilder hatten mit der Realität nicht viel zu tun. Das Zimmer („Luxury Honeymoon Suite“) war ziemlich runtergerockt. Sehr klein, für 3 Personen nicht geeignet. Der Preis war deutlich zu hoch. Die Lage ist top, mitten im Hafen. Der Kontakt zum Vermieter war sehr unangenehm. Er lehnt Anrufe ab und möchte nur über WhatsApp kommunizieren. Frage nach Hilfe ( Aircon lief nicht an) wurden nicht wirklich ernst genommen.
- Jennifer (8/5): -
- Catalin (8/5): -
- Fernando (6/5): - Great Location.
- Victor (8/5): Cool mais un peu déçu par des problèmes techniques (Clim qui fuit et bain qui pue) - C’était bien placé et le lit, la salle de bain était bien La Clim a fuit sur ma valise (et toute la nuit), le système de jets dans la baignoire devrait être nettoyé car ca pue vraiment
- DİLEK (5/5): Manzarası muhteşem - Konumu ve manzarası☺️ En güzel manzara bu otel de ✔️ 1-) apartman çok çok eski, merdivenler çok dik. 2-) otel otoparka çok uzak ve valizi otele taşımak inanılmaz yorucuydu, otelin bir servisi olmalıydı. (Vernazza cinque terra da bu olanaklar vardı) bu otelin de bir servis olanağı olsaydı çok iyi olurdu. Bunlar dışında bir şey yok, bu bölgenin en iyi manzarası bu otelde :)
- Shpresa (10/5): -
- Coralie (7/5): Vue magnifique mais attention au parking et l’accessibilité - La vue incroyable sur le village et le coucher du soleil le soir Et la clim! Parking : Néanmoins il faut souligner que le loueur nous a dit qu’il y avait un parking au bout de la rue, c’est faux… le parking est en haut du village et aucune voiture ne peut y descendre. Le parking a 60 places et il faut attendre qu’une voiture sorte pour rentrer. En ce qui nous concerne nous avons attendu que une heure mais nous sommes ensuite resté garé les 3j de notre séjour… Accessibilité : après avoir descendu tout le village il faut monter au 4eme étage de l’immeuble sans ascenseur, OK… Mais escalier avec des marches étroites mais hautes Pas de lumière dans les escaliers sombres Une cordelette sur le côté en guise de rampe…
- Annie (4/5): - The bed cover is stained, which was disappointing for the amount of money we paid for this stay. The bathroom door doesn’t close properly.
- Nicolas (8/5): - Vista simplesmente incrivel. Unico ponto menos bom mas sem culpa (diretamente) as escadas para subir ao ultimo andar muito irregulares
- John (5/5): Accomodation was overal disappointing with th exception of the views - Fantastic views great location Extremely narrow and steep and dark staircase difficult to get luggage up even for fit male, dirty staircase leading up to room . Greeted by empty wine bottle and mess leading to front door which remained there for our three day stay
- Gregory (10/5): Heavenly. - Great location, beautiful views nothing
- Raquel (8/5): - The view was a 10/10, for sure. The place itself was okay, the upstairs bedroom was pretty warm, the bathroom only has 1 very dim light in there and it was veryyyyy dark. Also the property manager/host was really not a helpful person at all. It was our first time in cinque terre, we knew there was going to be stairs but did not know the full extent and let me tell you it was a lot of hills and stairs. They did not warn us or inform us of a luggage service. After we checked in, we asked them if there was a luggage service we could pay to bring our luggage to the car when we check out. They told us no, but afterwards we saw companies with their trucks for luggage service. The host was just not helpful at all and I probably wouldn’t stay there again.
- Meegan (8/5): - The location of the room was amazing and not so great at the same time. Communication with the staff was hit and miss. I reached out a few weeks prior to arrival asking about early check in and or luggage storage. The stairs are extremely steep and not consistent size. We had one carry on and backpack each and it was a difficult climb. It would be great if this was indicated somewhere in the listing and not just in the reviews. Once you get to the room, it is great! The room was clean and the view is wonderful. The other draw back is that it is located above a bar in the center of town. The bar and noise until 1:00 in the morning is not conducive to a relaxing vacation.
- Matthew (6/5): First night great - could only access one room 2nd night - Brilliant location We had 2 rooms. Where locked out of both 2nd night - couldn’t contact anyone for help! One room other guests had locked the (communal) door from inside - took a good 10 minutes of hammering on the door to rouse them. The other room (in a separate building) the outside door was locked when we got back in the evening- we couldn’t get in at all
- Tim (9/5): Excellent location with fantastic views - Excellent location, overlooking the Riomaggiore Harbour, superb balcony with view of the sunset and the rest of this Cinque Terra town. Very challenging series of internal stairs need to be tackled each time one leaves or returns - not suited to anyone with mobility issues or large suitcases!
- Ewa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emma (10/5): - Great location, newly renovated modern apartment. Partial sea views. This apartment is self-check in, which if you follow the information sent is easy to follow. The apartment is up a very inclined set of stairs on the 5th floor. This can be a challenge with luggage and going in and out all day, however, the apartment was totally worth it.
- Tamara (8/5): 83 stairs but beautiful room! - The room was beautiful with an awesome view however, there were 83 steps up to our room!!! We had lots of luggage (as we just finished a cruise and took 4 trains to get there). So it was pretty brutal to get to our room. Also the air conditioning was more like a fan. Kind of typical for Europe but definitely no real cooling. The hot tub was a nice bonus!
- Aisling (8/5): - The bedroom was clean, fresh and bright. We found it comfortable and met our needs. The bathroom was also clean but it would have been useful to have been given instructions on how to use the shower. The water in the wash hand basin hot tap was cold. Lots of clean, fresh towels were made available to us and very nice shampoo, body wash and body cream and other bathroom necessities. Unfortunately, there was no conditioner. I found communicating through WhatsApp functional and impersonal. At no point was any effort made to ‘host’ us or to offer any type of hospitality. Or indeed to let us know we could contact them about any extra needs. This aspect of our stay was disappointing. I have no idea about the eco credentials of this accommodation.
- Elisha (9/5): Amazing. Best location and terrace . Host very responsive and helpful . Nice and clean. - Amazing location . I want to come back ! A bigger fridge would be helpful and senser light on stairs in middle section
- John (10/5): can't wait to come back! - We had a balcony that overlooked the marina and the village center. We loved having the extra room in the apartment as opposed to only a hotel room. The balcony, the view and the vibe was wonderful. Our apartment was 4 floors above a great gelato shop. All in all, absolutely wonderful. the lights in the stairs were a bit spotty and took a day or two to figure out. They are necessary if you are staying on the penthouse level, but this was NOT a bad mark in our opinion.
- Annette (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious, stylish apartment with stunning views. Nice balcony to sit and enjoy the sunset. Large bathroom and plenty of towels and bathrobes. Multiple flights of very steep stairs (as with every place in Bellagio). Would be good to have better lighting on the stairs.
- Laura (4/5): - Positive: Magnificent view of the iconic buildings of Riomaggiore and the Mediterranean. Negatives: 1. Incredibly hard to find. The owner’s instructions were woefully inadequate, and Google Maps pointed to an erroneous location. The owner did respond to WhatsApp messages, and we eventually got in… but not before several long “wild goose chases”. 2. The room was clean, but the furnishings were spartan. The bed was uncomfortable, and the frame squeaked. Also, no indoor table and chairs suitable for enjoying coffee, wine, or beer when its raining. 3. WiFi was never available during the stay. The owner responded but service never came online. This is unacceptable for this price. 4. The “private hot tub” was not inviting. A 6-ft planter beside the tub contained no plants, only dirt. Yuck! The plants on the balcony were also in very poor condition, indicating a lack of upkeep. 5. There was a coffee pot, water and a mini bar in the room, but nothing was free. Prices were not outrageous but at this price we at least expect free drinking water and coffee. Finally, be aware that the property is on the top floor and one must navigate 6 flights of narrow, winding, poorly-lit stairs. The listing says “no elevator” but we weren’t prepared for a rigorous and challenging indoor hike, particularly with several large pieces of luggage. Be forewarned! We’re giving 2 stars … only because the view is really breathtaking. We would love to return to the area … but it won’t be here.
- Leroi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexandra (8/5): Beautiful views and great location but access to the property is very difficult! - The view is absolutely incredible!! Lovely balcony to relax on as well! The access to the property is incredibly difficult!
- Gail (8/5): Fabulous location. Quirky apartment. Cleaned every day. - The kettle was broken. I asked for it to be replaced but it never was.
- Boyle (9/5): We only stayed one night but it was a great time. Amazing view and we enjoyed every second. - The view was amazing The stairs up to the property were challenging.
- Shelar (1/5): Beautiful views, but disappointing accommodations & lack of any personal service responsibility!!!!! - The view was spectacular and really the best part of the property. Can’t beat the location…..unfortunately you had to hike up the equivalent of 5 steep narrow, dark and winding stairs to reach the front door. Not safe, cardio buster with suitcases and no porter help available! No ac control reported batteries needed to be replaced on day one and owner did not care. Lied and said maid replaced and not the case! Volume on TV did not work😩. Shredded outdoor chaise lounge cushion on terrace unusable. Peeling paint chips in ceiling wall corner needed repaired. Attempted multiple times to contact THEOne property phone # only to get a recording then disconnect! WiFi did not work! Repeatedly exchanged messages thru Booking.com owner connect and owner was not responsive to these issues. None of them were properly addressed. Was so disappointed, that we left the property one day early & notified owner in advance for full or partial refund for the one day & he rejected and could care less. If this is the type of owner properties that are on your site you will be in a world of long term business hurt. We will never use your site again and will share with all of our friends our displeasure and lack of resolution! This owners sucks the big donkey!
- Chomchanai (10/5): Exceptional - The location and the room is perfect None
- Thomas (9/5): A magical view - The apartment was all we could dream for. We booked it especially for the view and were not disappointed. It’s such a luxury to wake up in the morning and see the quiet sea and enjoy Riomaggiore before the tourists arrive. The terrace is in the sun during the afternoon and is the perfect point of view to see the sunset. Parts of the apartment are slightly run down and could benefit from an upgrade (paint peeling off on the ceiling, lounge chair without a proper cover, etc.). Given some of the reviews, I did some extra diligence before booking but ultimately did not regret my choice.
- Derek (10/5): - Was a really nice room with a big bed, nice big bathroom, I really enjoyed the room and the location. I would stay here again and recommend it to others.
- Mark (8/5): Riomaggiore amazing. Apartment very expensive for what is offered. - Lovely view from nice balcony. Clean and modern Very small apartment. Huge climb with suitcases.
- Elsa (10/5): If you plan to spend much time inside, you’ll enjoy this location - Great view, comfortable beds. A tough haul from the train to the room, lots of stairs even before you get to the building. If you’re fit you can do it and the views are worth it. Can’t believe they want to charge for coffee pods after what we paid for the place!
- Alexandra (8/5): Very good - location is incredible. balcony views out of this world.
- Meggie (10/5): Worth the steep climb up! Spectacular views! - Don't believe the bad Google reviews! This place is Amazing! We booked the honeymoon suite during our 10 day trip across multiple cities in Northern Italy and this was our favorite hotel of all of them. The views were absolutely spectacular! The room was clean and well appointed. A few tips: 1. Don't bring a big bag. We left our large suitcases in our rental car and just carried a small backpack up the stairs 2. Must be somewhat 'fit' or 'in shape' to stay here, the stairs are VERY steep and getting from the parking area to the property is at the bottom of the hill. Getting back up the hill would be difficult if you have any mobility issues. Your apple watch will definitely know that you are working out when you climb these 4 flights of stairs, but once you're up there it is worth the view. If you have any mobility issues and cannot hike up a large hill then I would not book here, and probably would not stay in this area at all. Good communication from the host leading up to our stay and during our stay.
- Mary (2/5): - We received, upon arrival, a very different (inferior and less expensive) room than we reserved and paid for. We communicated this with the property manager promptly. Though they acknowledged the error, were unwilling to offer any accommodation, whatsoever. We learned that “our” unit was occupied by another guest, despite the fact that we’d paid for it. We were “allowed to” relocate our 2nd night (without assistance)- to another building, hauling our luggage down and up multiple, precarious flights of stairs to the correct unit. This unit was what we’d reserved and simply lacked a functional refrigerator. What a disappointing experience.
- Bibiana (2/5): - The staff was not nice. They even called us and asked to take out our luggage when we have not even arrived to the property. We tried to explain that they must have the wrong number, but they continue being rude. They never warm people that there are very dangerous, dark and steep stairs to climb in order to arrive to the room. The stair lights do not work after the second floor. It took us around 20 mins to arrive to the room carrying our luggage. They should have warmed people of how dangerous is their property.
- Heidi (10/5): Loved this village and the apartment, be prepared for stairs - The view from the balcony on the honeymoon suite and the penthouse is amazing and worth the climb! The beds were comfortable and it is nicely decorated. It is clean. Did I say the balcony is amazing! This place is full of charm and character and uniqueness, and I absolutely loved it and our stay. We rented the two and they basically connect, there is an outer door you can close and lock and keep your room doors open, very nice for families, we are traveling with our two adult children and their significant others and this set up worked well for us. Nothing bad just some things you should know. This property is not for elderly, out of shape, people with lots of luggage or obese. From the train, you travel down several flights of stairs and stone paths. When you get to the the property you travel up five flights of narrow, slippery marble stairs, with no light, and a rope to hang on to (which I desperately needed. I was prepared for this from other reviews, but still it was more than expected.) the apartments are small, but charming. The honeymoon suite is interesting with the glass wall (it does have a shade) but you could sit on the toliet and look in the mirror and see the ocean🤣
- Simone (6/5): Pleasant - Beautiful view All the coffee and tea has to be bought extra at a huge price. We bought our own things. The apartment is advertised as luxury, but the bathroom door was broken so nobody could go to the bathroom in privacy. Paint is peeling in the bathrooms and there are no normal coffee cups provided. Two lights were broken. It is not two separate bedrooms, it is one bedroom and a loft above the kitchen, thus not a lot of privacy for the people sleeping there. As the other reviews said, the stairs are horrible. I cannot emphasize this more. If you cannot handle 4-5 flights of extremely steep and dark stairs, do not book this apartment. A luggage service would be highly recommended.
- Trent (10/5): - Incredible room and beautiful location. The view from the balcony was insane! I’d highly recommend this room.
- Inna (7/5): PS photos were made after our use - Amazing view, easy to find, the apartment really located in the heart of Riomaggiore. It was pretty clean and nice. I would come back for the view but not for the facilities. Staff was always on the line for any questions. The stairs ware tough, even the stairs inside the apartment to reach the bed + we bumped out heads few times. The door to the bathroom was broken, it was very difficult to close it. The fridge didn’t work :(
- Karen (10/5): - Beautiful location. Super clean and new
- Sharmaine (8/5): Very good -
- Vicki (9/5): We absolutely loved it and would certainly recommend. - Location was perfect. The view from our balcony was beyond expectations. There is no lift in the building and while we understand that this is impossible in Cinque Terre - be warned it was a hard climb up 4 storeys of steep narrow stairs - especially on arrival at the end of a long day in the dark with our luggage.
- Michele (10/5): Amazing - The luxury honeymoon suite by the first is truly a gem in the heart of riomaggiore. The stairs to the the flat are typical of any italian hystorical building. The light to the stairs is located on the right as soon as you enter the building. The flat is located in a cute historycal building overlooking the Marina. The view is totally unobstructed from the little balcony which is perfect for an alfresco aperitivo or just to relax while enjoying the view. The flat is beautifully decorated and the bed is extremely comfortable. The flat comes equipped with a little cooking corner. The toilet and shower are very modern and equipped with very nice body/hair product. The staff was extremely nice and polite and always ready to help. Enrico most of all was extremely helpful and kind and made our experience even more unforgettable. Nothing. Everything was perfect.
- Christopher (8/5): - My only complaint is that there was no water in the room. Very relaxing stay!
- Ivan (8/5): Spectacular view, friendly staff, great breakfast and worth the climb. - Great location. Superb views. Great breakfast. Clean. Great communication with checking in. The stairs to get to the room might be a struggle for some, especially with luggage. For a family of 4, we all just had backpacks and it was no issue.
- Samantha (9/5): Overall, we enjoyed our stay and especially sunsets from the terrace. - The view was amazing. The steps to the room were very steep.
- Bekah (9/5): Superb - The apartment was clean and there was a bidet, which is a bonus un Italy. Everything was clean and lovely. Once you get to the appartment. Pay attention to the other reviews about the stairs. The stairs were awful. First you must encounter the stairs through Riomaggiore to even get down to the dock, where the appartment is located. THEN you must treck FIVE flights of stairs. Tiny, narrow, high steep steps, slippery marble steps. There is only a single fishing rope to hold onto and the odds of falling are EXTREMELY high. Also, half the treck up, the stairs from hell, is in the dark as the lights do not work so its pitch black. Be ready carry a bag up the steep narrow (a bag won't even fit on a step) steps with one hand while holding your phone with the flashlight in the other trying not to fall -- good luck! The view is amazing once you get yo there. Prop-tip. If you pack your bag well so all breakable items are in the middle the you can drop and roll the bag down when you leave. A sort of "controlled fall". Also, you'll have to lug all your bags UP to get back to the train station. Beautiful appartment and fabulous view. Just come mentally and physically prepared for the treck to and from the appartment. No washer or dryer. Sink drain does not lock to hold water. You'll need a sink stopper or stuff a towel down the drain to wash clothes.
- Donna (5/5): Difficult 4-story stairs with luggage. Great top floor view. - The top floor -4th- ad fantastic view with great balcony. The First company Charged 30 days prior to stay - way before all other lodgings. The First company CheckIn is not with person on site / no reception. No person. WhatsApp used only and copy of passports asked to be sent and would not send entry code or info until Passport info sent. Held Hostage with this u known process. Description also does not include Any heads-up about 4 flights of unfriendly and questionable “rope” railing stairs. Very difficult with luggage and no warning and no local help offered. WiFi instructions- initial incorrect and pictures sent after confusing. Image sent via WhatsApp Should be in room for cell to capture
- Thushi (8/5): - Nice property
- Mariana (8/5): Very good - The room is really comfortable and beautiful. The bed is very nice. The location is good. To expensive for one night
- Lydia (7/5): Great location but improvements needed to be good value for money - The location and view is perfect The bathroom door didn’t close properly, there were 4 of us staying but regardless it wouldn’t be ideal for most. There weren’t wine glasses for the 4 people staying and so many things were extra charges including little things like coffee pods, I think when people are paying £400 a night that type of thing should just be including when describing a place as ‘luxury’.
- Anita (10/5): We’ll be back! - Location is everything! The apartment is typical European small, but nicely laid out and has everything you could want. It’s ALL about the balcony and the view. It’s like stepping into old world Italy Not a thing really. But let me tell you what I wish we had known- getting to the marina and the apartment is hard, but worth it. If you’ve been traveling Italy or Europe and have more than one bag, store them at the train station and take in only essentials - a backpack or 1 small suitcase. Stairs, stairs, stairs! No other way to the marinara but again WORTH IT! The apartment is on the 4th floor, but this is how you get that view!
- William (10/5): Iconic Riomaggiora view and private terrace. - Location is incredible! Easy communication. Clean and comfortable.
- Jeffrey (7/5): A very nice apartment, with a fantastic view, that needs a little more attention to maintaining it. - Place was nicely decorated and the view from the patio was fabulous! Bathroom door did not latch, making using the bathroom uncomfortable myself and the other guests. Also, there were several lights in the apartment either fully or partially burnt out.
- janeen (8/5): - I stayed here with a couple friends and although the apartment is tiny without many kitchen amenities, we found it perfect for what we needed. We did struggle with finding the place however, the directions were as clear as they could be. There are a lot of steep stairs getting up to the apartment and it’s not very well lit. The apartment was right next to a pizza shop, gelato, and Café with many many restaurant and shopping opportunities. The apartment was about a 10 minute walk from the train. Everything was neat and clean, and the view was spectacular. Definitely not recommended for anyone with mobility issues as the apartment is on the fourth floor, and one of the bedrooms was a loft which required climbing up steep ladder. Overall, we enjoyed our stay
- Lucie (6/5): Pleasant -
