    Great stay in Riomaggiore!

    The light of the airconditioning is bright and the room doesn't get completely dark at night.

    The host and her father were very nice people, we were picked up at the train station and received a warm welcome. The room is spacious, has a good shower, a nice bed, fridge, safe and a balcony. Everything you need. The location is a bit up the hill but the positive side is that there are no bars and restaurants in front of the door that make noise at night so it is relatively quiet. Riomaggiore is a cozy town and you'll reveive a QR code that lets you walk the Via dell'Amore both ways.

    There was nothing to not like, yes there are many steps to get up to the property but that is like anywhere in Cinque Terre and worth it for the view you get from the terrace

    The accommodation was in the perfect location, modern and clean with a beautiful terrace with a view. Even better than the property though was the hosts, Erika and her dad Aldo. Erika was always very quick to respond to any questions we had and gave lots of very useful information, Aldo was so friendly and welcoming, helping us with out luggage, giving us drinks when we got there and there were croissants and snacks and drinks in the fridge too. Because I was writing an article, Aldo also invited us to see his vineyards and the cantina where the wine is produced and this was a highlight of our trip. When we got ill Erika and Aldo helped us so much with finding new accommodation where we could rest and recover before our flight and medical assistance. I have to say this was the best accommodation I have ever stayed in, in terms of the property, location and hosts. Exceptional!

    Nothing... it was perfect.

    Erika and Aldo were amazing hosts and this place is absolutely charming! You feel as if you are living like a local in a village apartment and sipping prosecco on the patio during sunset was so memorable. The apartment is so well appointed with thoughtful elements throughout. Additionally, they provide a "local pass" giving you access to local elevator and trail.

    The stay was amazing. The studio was very lovely, cozy, clean, and in a perfect location. Erika and her father were very attentive and picked us up from the train station and helped us with our luggage. Her father also helped us with our luggage again to the train station when we were leaving Riomaggiore. I highly recommend this place ❤️.

    Nothing.

    Erika’s place was located a short walk from the train station, close to many restaurants. Aldo waited for us at the train station even when it was raining and helped us with our bags. He puts us to shame with his fitness haha :) The property was in the 4th floor so be prepared to climb up the stairs. We needed an ironing board on a Saturday night and contacted Erika just to see if she had it. Within less than 10 mins Aldo appeared with the iron board and we were amaze by the hospitality.

    No complaints. We truly loved everything about our stay here.

    We had a wonderful stay. Erika was incredibly responsive up to and during our stay. The location is perfect with stunning views from the quaint, private terrace. The snacks and fridge filled with beverages were such a nice touch. Erika’s father insisted on transporting our luggage which was an unexpected and greatly appreciated bonus. The entire set up was extremely clean and inviting. During our two-week stay, our time here was the biggest highlight!

    Of course we understood the uphills and steps prior to our visit as we had done our research but just to keep in mind the main street is very steep and there are stairs up to the apartment. Thanks again to the owners father as he helped us with our luggage x

    From start to finish our experience of staying in Riomaggiore was excellent. We were met at the station by the owners father who escorted us to the apartment. Always on hand to help us. The apartment is beautiful and to an extremely high standard with the finest of finishing touches and added extras to make our stay that much better.from the fizz in the fridge to the toiletries in the shower room, we felt special. In short the perfect place to explore Cinque Terre.

    Erika, Erika’s father, thank you so much! You are truly wonderful hosts. They shared the latest local news with me via messages and provided helpful recommendations on delicious restaurants and parking spots for the next destinations during my trip. The room and location were absolutely perfect. I loved the stylish interior and especially the balcony. I even got to experience hanging my laundry on the rope like a local! When I tied my own rope from Japan to the balcony, Erika’s father happened to notice and kindly told me that I could use the built-in clothesline instead. It was such a lovely and happy experience. The room also had a train schedule for visiting Cinque Terre, and Erika took the time to explain it to me in detail. In order to reach the room, I had to climb many stairs, but Erika’s father helped me with my luggage both at check-in and check-out. Even though my suitcase was heavy, he carried it effortlessly, and I am truly grateful for his help. It was truly a heartwarming stay. I will definitely come back next time! Thank you so much!

    Nothing! Just to say something. An unforeseen trainstrike, of which Erika had warned us. We were able to go but it took 4 hours waiting to go back. But this doesn't happen often

    A small comfortable apartment containing everything you need! Coffeemaker, fridge, watercooker and a nice terrace to sit in the sun! As a welcome there was sparkling wine and beer and sweets. The information given and answered goes very quickly and efficient by Whatsapp. We were warned about a trainstrike. The whole family helps for a quick check-in and out and they help you with the suitcases going up and down the stairs. Very friendly Italian hosts. Good starting point for hikes. You hike one stretch and go back by train.

    Erika and her father Aldo were very attentive and hospitable. Very good communication on everything and anything we needed to know or help with. Aldo (the father) met us at the train station and helped with our luggage and walked us all the way to the room. Right before he took us up he surprised us with a glass of his very own delicious wine he made from his vineyard. We got to chitchat and he told us about his family and his life living in Riomaggiore. The room was very clean, looked just like the pictures and was well thought out. Snacks and drinks were provided which were much appreciated. Cute little terrace/patio was a great bonus where my husband and I would relax after a day of exploring.
