    The mattress in the Salvia-room was a bit thin and I could feel every movement from my partner in the bed. As far as I could see, the bed in at least one of the other rooms was much better.

    Very nice host. Good coffe. Flexible self served breakfast. Near the railway station. Facing a pedestrian street.

    There was nothing that i dilisked.

    The facilities, the breakfast, the little details that make a difference. The location was near the train station so was perfect for using the train daily to get to all those beautiful cities on the coast.

    My husband didn't realise the bathroom was outside the bedroom when we booked ( it was written in the title his fault) so we would opt for one of the other rooms with private bathroom in the room. The bed was a little hard.

    The room was nice. The shower was good. Very large choice for breakfast. Excellent location, 3 minutes from train station. Lots of nearby restaurants and shops.

    Everything is really nice, but the curtains are a kind of see through and the room can be very bright, specially in the morning, and if you end up in a room facing the street it can also be a bit loud at times, so if you are a light sleeper or want to sleep in I recommend bringing an eye mask and maybe some noise cancelling buds.

    Excellent location ! 5-10 mins walk from La Spezia Centrale train station and 15-20 mins walk from the boats that tour the Cinque Terre. The room was comfortable, clean and of a very good size. The bathroom was a bit small but also clean and had some essentials ( hairdryer, shampoo and soap). Part of the breakfast is offered in your room and you can eat whenever you want, and there’s also bread, cheese, eggs, coffee etc available in the communal kitchen every morning. Our host, Ale, is very attentive and kind, and gives great tips on where to eat and what to see. Wifi was mostly stable when I was there as well.

    Place is pretty noise during night, I recommend ear plugs.

    B&B L'Arca Di Noè is a 4 bedroom apartment with common kitchen and entry hall, at the 4th level of an old building. We had one of the rooms with private bathroom. The breakfast was very good compared to similar places in Italy, we had a basket full of sweets like croissants, cookies, other pastries etc in the room (that was refiled second day) and also a tray with ham, cheese, fruits, yogurts, butter etc in the fridge. Also eggs that you could prepare yourself in the kitchen. Also coffee and orange juice. I read many bad reviews about the breakfast but nothing to worry about, it was more than ok. Very close to the train station. Also we arrived very late to check in after 11 p.m. and had no problem with the check in, but you have to let the host know if you are in this situation. Also we could leave the luggage there for a couple hours after check out and that was very helpful.

    The online check in, if you arrive after 6pm, is not so great. I don’t feel confortable sharing my personal id on Whatsapp. The street and the building is very dark in the evening

    the location is close to the railroad station. It also has a kitchen with everything you need and a nice balcony.

    The air conditioning was tricky to work and was a little too cold when on but the room was too hot with it off. The water system makes a loud noise whenever you flush the toilet or use the tap in the bathroom. The mattress protector was a little squeaky. Overall this didnt dampen our experience though.

    The room was a great size and very clean. The breakfast was generous and the host was very helpful and accommodating.

    Parking in the neighbourhood is busy. There is public parking near the station. In our case the host helped to find a suitable parking space. We advise to plan parking space before arrival.

    Very close (10 min walk) to the railway station. A plus if you want to visit Cinque Terre. Also in the centre of town with restaurants and approx 20 minutes walk to the harbour. The host Allessandra was very friendly and helpfull. And she was always available when needed. Room was spacious and clean, with a private bathroom and private balcony. Breakfast is included. Daily a new luxury basket was available in the room so you could have your breakfast in the room or on the balcony. The B&B also has a shared kitchen with space for every room in the refridgerator.

    The mattress is very hard. Make sure to get the room with a private bath.

    The place is very close to the train stain. 5-7 minute walk. We loved the balcony from the bedroom. The place was very clean and it's been updated. They offer you many choices for breakfast. There's a lift to the floor. Thank you for those of us with big luggage!!

    The host Ale was amazing. She explained all issues regarding the accommodation, the keys and all we wanted to know about the city(restaurants, festivals, weekly market, free parking opportunities etc.). The breakfast was lovely with cheese mortadella, enough Marmelade, croissants and the best pastries, I've ever eaten in Italy.

    Check in did not go smoothly- our key was not at the proper location and we had to wait for a staff member to arrive to let us in. We waited in the rain for 15 min, it was not comfortable. The toilet was broken- the first button did not work, and the second popped off and fell into the tank when pushed. We had to fish it out of the tank several times. The button would also trigger a continuous running water which was very loud. Thin curtains meant no sunlight blocked- I awoke very early every day as the room was not darkened at all. The water tank is VERY loud. I awoke whenever the tank ran, which happened many times due to the faulty flushing of our toilet. I also awoke when our neighbours toilet ran. The washing machine (which I was very appreciate to use) wrecked one of my tops with dark stains. Unsure if I selected a bad setting, I was using Google translate. We also had to hang up the owners laundry before using.

    Appreciated the daily cleaning service, fresh linens and towels. Close to the train station.

    I was staying in the room with a private bathroom but outside of the room . The mattress of our room was quite poor, very thin and old making in it a bit uncomfortable. The room wasn’t the best one..

    The place is located 5-10 minutes walking from the station . You also have the bus station nearby the place. We arrived late at night and we pick up the keys in the kebab next to the place, so it was very easy for both parts. The breakfast is amazing, you have everything you need. Yogurt, bread, biscuits, ham, cheese, juice, coffee.
