Nothing.

The accommodation had been beautiful renovated. The bed and pillows were so comfortable with lovely bedding. We were on the ground floor with a balcony with views of the mountain. We were very happy with this as we felt very private there. I would definitely recommend this accommodation and would love to come back and stay there again one day!

Giovanni is super kind and responsive. He gave us all sorts of information. The bed is very comfortable. The location is convenient, only a short walk from the train station and the marina. About 1-2 minutes walk to the Duomo. Very quiet at night.

The owner was exceptional, he explained the surroundings and the facilities with pride. He even left us some goodies for our stay. The room is small, yet newly renovated and comfortable. Quiet surroundings, enjoyed the balcony.

It was a hike up the hill but as we hiked each day in Cinque Terre our legs became more used to the hills which were really everywhere in most of the 5 villages.

Liked our little balcony and the character left from the old building.

A little bit noisy at times due to the hotel which is next to the apartment - specifically the patio attached to one of the hotel rooms

Very comfortable, lovely location away from the crowds, very helpful host, generous snacks in the room to include beer, water, sweets , breakfast snacks and lots of tea and coffee.

Giovanni was a really nice host. The small room had everything needed, a few snacks, some drinks in the fridge, and a few other amenities for a fair price. The location was the perfect starting point to explore Cinque Terre. I would book it again.

Lovely host who took his time to meet me and show me to the apartment despite the late time of night I arrived with ferry arriving late. Room small but exceptionally clean and well organised. Very well positioned in beautiful Manarola.

Would like to have had towel bars in the bathroom.

Everything was very nice. Room was spotless. Our host met us close to the property and was very informative about Manarola and the other villages in Cinque Terre. He was also very helpful while we were planning our trip. Quick to respond and all his recommendations were good.

Amazing location in Manarola! The double room was a great size for two people, clean and modern as well as having features of exposed old brick from previously being a wine cellar! Comfortable bed and has all the amenities you need! Clean +++ and a safe town. Giovanni was an amazing host met us at check in and pointed out areas of the town we should see! Welcoming and always responsive immediately when contacted! Gave great recommendations for local restaurants and how to access the walking tracks and train passes!

Carting luggage up the hill... But as mentioned above it is worth it!

Absolutely everything. The room was perfect - plenty of space and very cool staying in an old wine cellar. Manarola is so small location isn't important, however, this was up the hill slightly meaning the majority of day tourists didn't come up here. The area was much quieter than the lower sections and perfect to stay in.

Giovanni is such an attentive and friendly host, he gave us the warmest welcome. The communication with him was simply amazing, always very responsive. We stayed in the extremely clean, cosy double room with our private bathroom and the terrace where we enjoyed very much a cold glass of wine after a long day walking around. He also provided us with coffee, teas, some croissants, some water and beers :) Everything is taken care of in detail. The train station in 10 min from the room :) There are a few cafes and bars near by. The neighbourhood is fairly quiet and charming. Although you won't be able to leave your luggage at Giovanni's place before check-in or after check-out, there is a great place that he recommended to us where we could leave our belongings only 2 min walking for 5 euros (I believe you pay that for the whole day). Manarola is such a great town. After visiting the 5 towns of Cinqueterre we were very happy that we chose this one to spend our weekend. You can find great places to eat, to have a drink, to swim.... We found that the prices here are a little bit cheaper than in other towns too. If I'm ever back to 5terre I would try to stay again at Giovanni's as it has been one of the best stays I have ever had, no doubt about it!!!!

The only note I would make is that the picture of the balcony is taken from a long angle so it's a little misleading. In fact there is a terrace right in front so not great for privacy. Having said that during our stay no one was there, and Giovanni had provided covers if we needed to have some privacy, which we ended up not using.

We really liked Manarola, it was the best of the 5 villages. The place itself was really nice too, very clean, very comfortable and obviously recently renovated. Everything was as advertised and Giovanni was very helpful and quick to respond.

I stayed in the Solo room with a single bed as I am a solo traveler. The room was very nice and had everything I needed. I especially liked the window that opened and looked onto the street and some restaurants. Giovanni was a great host and helped me with my bags to carry them up the stairs.

N/A - our expectations were exceeded.

The host was extremely responsive, prompt in addressing any requests of ours, thoughtful and helpful in giving recommendations about Manarola. The apartment was clean, spacious, well-lit and central and had lots of great little touches.

Everything was good.

This is a good solution for a solo female traveler. Manarola is pretty, small, and safe. The room itself had everything I needed. It’s on the 4th floor but the stairs were easy to climb. It had a perfectly working AC, a mini-fridge, plenty of plugs, a small table with a chair, and a twin-size bed. The bathroom worked perfectly, the water was warm and there was excellent water pressure. The host explained places of interest in the area when I arrived and left some snacks which was nice. I only wish I could’ve stayed longer.
