Reviews and Ratings
This hotel has its ups and downs. While the rooms have quirky touches throughout, the decoration is very bad, but the small balcony is a nice addition. The service is decent with one German speaking staff member available. The location is convenient being within walking distance of the train station, but lacks clear signs to Cinque Terre. The dining offers delicious grilled steaks, however, the price could be better. Overall, a mix of positives and negatives.

Service is attentive, with the bonus of having a German-speaking staff member at the reception. While the dining options are limited, the hotel excels in its prime location for exploring the beautiful Cinque Terre region.
