2/10 Poor

Worst in Italy
Moldy shower, no water or cup in room, no sound insulation, 124 stone broken pitch black steps to door. Absentee negligent owner. Dishonest description. Worst place I’ve stayed and I’ve travelled to italy for decades. And bring your own toilet paper if you dare stay here because they give you one small roll and then leave for the night. Parking is a bus ride away. Anything closer is over $50 day. Not even any sign in the town where the dangerous steps start. This owner is the worst.

Very good place to stay in Portovenere. At walking distance to the centre and to catch the boats to Cinque Terre.

6/10 Good

Die Aussicht ist der schön, man schaut vom Garten aus auf den Hafen/Altstadt. Das Frühstück ist eine Frechheit! Trockenes Brot, kalter Kaffee, abgepackte Marmelade, etc. Unser schlechtestes Frühstück seit langem! Bei einem Zimmerpreis von über €200 pro Nacht, bekommt man anderswo eine firstclass-Frühstück serviert. Handtücher werden nicht täglich gewechselt! Der Weg zur Unterkunft ist über viele Stufen oder über eine steile Straße erreichbar. Einen Parkplatz fürs Auto gibt es nicht. Wir hatten unser Auto bei der Anreise in La Spezia abgestellt und sind der Fähre nach Porto Venere gefahren. Kosten: Bewachtes Parkhaus per Nacht €15, Fähre per Fahrt/Person €8.
