    Nothing.

    The location was superb for us, right in the middle of the other villages. This meant we were able to hike from Corniglia to all the villages and return at the end of the day by train. Perfect location. The Apartment itself was fantastic, with everything we needed. Plenty of toiletries and the towels were extremely soft. The bed was very comfy and the kitchen was well equipped, couldn’t ask for anything else. We walked up the road from the station when we arrived with our suitcases as we didn’t want to struggle up the steps. There were other steps up to the apartment but this didn’t put us off. The views from the balcony were outstanding.

    We were only sorry that we could not stay longer! There was a slight confusion on checking out since we did not realize that there was someone downstairs responsible for accepting the payment, but we figured it out.

    This is a lovely apartment in the middle of Corniglia with an amazing view of the sea. It had a well-equipped kitchen and a nice bathroom in addition to a spacious bedroom and even a balcony. There is also a common terrace to sit on if desired.

    Nothing at all other than we found it tricky to find after a long travel day but I think that was us being tired and nothing to do with the location.

    The views are out of this world! The kitchen is brilliant. And the terrace is wonderful.

    Great location, hikes, local food and wine.

    The cost of being high on the hill is the trip from the train station, then through the town to the apartment is up, up, up. Streets are steep with many stairways. Not worth it for a one-day visit. Try to pack light and be prepared for getting your stuff up a lot of steps. While this is true for almost all of the towns in Cirque Terre, Corneglia, and this apartment are up higher than most. The location and views are definitely worth the effort though.

    Location, location, location If you want to explore Cinque Terre this is the spot. I believe Corniglia is the best location for multi-day stays. In In the center of the three cities and high up on the hill which makes it an ideal location to hike both directions. While inconvenient for day-trippers or even one-day stays, this makes it nicer for those based there in the mornings and evenings when it is much less busy. And I feel this apartment is in the best spot of Corniglia, high near the tip of the hill with unobstructed views from the property over the entire sea north to south. The views from the bedroom and kitchen windows to the north are amazing and a semi private patio, shared by a few apartments in the building, gives panoramic views north to south.

    We struggled to find the apartment based on just the address and wandered around for a while until we found it. For future travellers, when you get off the bus, walk along the main street, Via Fieschi, until you get to the village square. Go up the hill to the right of the church walking past La Lanterna restaurant. At the top you will see steps to your right hand side. Walk up this set of steps and then another set and No 34 is on the right hand side with a sign saying Corniglia Dreams. The front door should be open just got to the first floor and the housekeepers are there. We also struggled to charge our phones. We did take a travel plug but it didn’t fit in some of the plugs and the only USB was in the back of the TV.

    We loved our stay here. Peaceful and relaxing with several fabulous restaurants and a great mini market (use Lisa Market on the main road where the bus comes in) for cheese, olives, wine (all good and from €8) tomatoes, fruit etc., all very reasonable. Opening the kitchen windows and bedroom doors to the sea was stunning. The private balcony was very narrow and we only used it to hang out our washing on the line provided and also to gain access to the communal patio which was spacious. Great to have air conditioning in the bedroom and the washing machine was a godsend. The housekeepers were around every day and we used Google Translate if we needed anything.

    There was nothing that we didnt like about our stay and just hope to be able to make it back here again one day!

    The apartment was situated high above the sea in Corniglia, and our view was spectacular. There are a few stairs to navigate when you get to Corniglia but it adds to the European experience and was not as issue for us at all - it just means that we earnt our limoncellos (also amazing was the lemon and basil gelato that we had to taste test several times in Corniglia) the town was the perfect location for us - quieter than the other 4 villages but had everything that we needed - delicious restaurants and cafes within a 2 minute walk of leaving our apartment. And easy access to hiking trails and the train station - if you dont want to take the stairs to the train station the main road is quite easy to walk up and down, even with luggage (although it is uphill from the station, and its about 2km walk. Shuttle buses were running too) We loved ever minute

    Can’t think of anything

    Super comfortable small apartment with access to a rooftop patio - wonderful sunset watching from there. Loved having access to a washing machine as we were only carrying small backpacks while we hiked the area. We didn’t really cook in kitchen (just fixed simple breakfasts) but it was well set up for cooking if you wanted. The staff was helpful and friendly. Great location close to shops and restaurants but does require some steep stair climbing to reach the building and the two flights up to apartment, but the views are worth the climb!

    It was a bit hard to find and the name of the place is actually a different one as mentioned here on booking.com.

    We booked the apartment which is on the top of the building and comes with its own little terrace which is connected to the main and bigger terrace. This is the highest point in Cinque Terre and we had an awesome view over the coast and parts of Corniglia. Silvia, who checked us in was super nice and helpful. The place is super clean, comes with a full set-up kitchen and is quiet even though it's in the center of Corniglia. A perfect place if you plan to stay longer in Cinque Terre. We absolutely loved it.

    The stairs! We are good with stairs but definitely not for someone who's not. Many steps on the path leading to the apartment and it's on the top floor (without lifts). BUT IT'S WORTH IT!!!

    Corniglia is the best town in Cinque Terre to stay as it's the least crowded. This apartment is at the highest point in Corniglia and OMG, the view from it is just stunning 😁 Clean, friendly staff, a homely stay. Didn't want to leave.

    It doesn't say just how much of a climb upto the apartment it is - especially when you've luggage. We are a very fit couple and we found it tough carrying our bags up from the main square. But I still would stay here again- just pack lighter!!

    The view was amazing. Lovely spacious apartment for two people with all the equipment necessary. Great to have coffee pods provided also.

    The check in process is simply horrendous. There was no communication before we reached the hotel door. We called the owner (who does not speak much English) and were told the code to the front door. We were told that the keys will hang on the door of the apartment which we couldn't find when we got there. After a while we were told that two French gentlemen have "mistakenly" checked into our apartment. And we will have to spend the night in a small room downstairs which is less than half the size of the apartment we booked without a kitchen and a really tiny bathroom. This was all communicated via automated translation over the phone because there is no staff in the hotel after evening. This was so unexpected and really spoiled our holiday mood but apparently it was the only option. We were then moved to our apartment the following day when the other guests checked out and we were given a discount in the room rate. Despite that, we really didn't appreciate the night that was wasted due to a very inefficient check in process which meant we couldn't unpack and then had to stay in to move our luggage the following day.

    Appartmento Giumin is an amazing apartment with incredible views over the Ligurian sea and Manarola. The facilities are top notch, the place is exceptionally clean. The kitchen is very spacious almost as big as the room itself. There's an attached balcony and a public terrace beside it to enjoy the sunset. We loved the apartment. Overall excellent.
