Air conditioning didn’t work and a lot of amenities were extra like soap, water etc. the WiFi also didn’t work. good location and great communication with owner. Great for couples It was also quite close to a main road and a lot of noise of a night time.

Beautiful location, great restaurants close to apartment. Very clean and close to the waterfront park. We truly enjoyed our time here. Bonus, the safe was stuck with our passports and they came out on a Sunday afternoon to rescue us. Best communication and went above and beyond what we expected. Highly recommend.

sometimes it's really difficult to understand how dishonest people are. We never advertised a King bed or a parking so how can you expect them? to be more comfortable we have royal suites but if you want to save money and then complaint it's your problem

Don't fool by other negative comment. This is one of the best place when I stay in Italy. It is about 15 mins walk or 5 mins taxi ride from La spezia train station. I did not drive but see plenty of parking around. there is also public bus station right at the building. Owner of the unit provided clear instruction on how to get in to building and how to get the room card. we communicate by whatsapp but im not sure if it is the only way to talk. lobby is little dark but nothing to worry about. there is elevator so you dont need to take your luggage up. once you enter the unit, it is a different world, very modern and comfortable. there are 4 rooms and i dont hear anything from other rooms. in conclusion i would recommend this place for anyone who visit Cinque Terre.

If you want to be DISAPPOINTED stay here!
- No WhatsApp don’t book as this is the only form of communication you have with the owner. - Hotels.com states concierge service there was NONE, the room was located inside a residential apartment block with no obvious signage, NOT a HOTEL or even a B&B this it is a room sectioned off in an apartment. -Contacted via whatsapp and sent photos of lock boxes where each time a different key or card was obtained to be able to access the room, you don’t meet any concierge you are rather sent on a treasure hunt. - Free offsite parking hotels.com states, this is not the case, the off-site parking is the street and good luck, parking is scarce and small. Be aware this apartment does not have it’s own parking. - At 11pm the apartments power went out and people we unable to get into their room with their swipe card, we were told by 2 random people who were attempting to open peoples room with a key that the owner would be their in 10 minutes to fix the power, the owner never showed and their was a code to a lock box that was sent via whatsapp to all guest that opened an emergency box at the front of the apartment that held keys that could open everyone’s room BE AWARE this box could be opened by anyone staying in the room and meant that your room could have been opened and accessed by any number of strangers, VERY SCARY. - Air conditioner didn’t work. Whole experience lack lustre save your money and just stay else where

Dear Gavin it’s very strane that you didn’t write there was an important problem with the electrical system that night that’s not common but you have time to publish pics of our self check in box, is this useful? A member of our staff was there assisting guests who had problem with electricity and this was not your case . In the emergency box there are emergency keys but if you are inside your room with the keycard inserted in the pocket no one can open the door so what is scary? Are you a drama Queen? Probably yes

Dear ChadYou complained for a parking that’s not advised as free or private or connected to the hotel. When we answered no to your parking request you immediately menaced us to write a negative review that’s not a good way to solve problems. We are proud of our job and not offended at all by your review concerning a service that we don’t offer to our clients. Enjoy your life

Great apartment - independent stay
Loved the apartment, modern, nice design and super clean, fancy toiletries. Good location near the harbour, although good to note for a short stay is far end of town from station. Self check in was easy, good instructions and host was responsive to any queries. Not sure where the main building where any facilites is though, could not find any details about this (although we dis not need anyway).

We checked in late as our train didn’t arrive until 10:30 p.m. beware-as these people won’t help you after 5:00 pm. The door knob handle was off the door and on the floor when we arrived. We couldn’t get into the room. Both Expedia and myself called the owners several times and no one answered. They refused to credit our fees-even when we couldn’t get into the room due to a facility issue. The owner called me hysteric and dramatic and could have cared less that my family of four almost had to sleep on the hallway floor. We called 22 places and finally found ONE that could accommodate as at midnight. I’ll be disputing this charge as there is no way I am paying for this horrible experience and rude owners.

Avoid this hotel from hell. Don’t be deceived by the photos. Although it’s centrally located, the building where it’s located is very old and dark and feels kind of creepy. Aircon doesn’t work, no blanket, kettle and zero service. The room feels cold and has lots of strange noises during the night. We even experienced 3 temporary blackouts. Staff totally rude and unhelpful and even threatened to cancel our reservation and indeed he did cancelled the last 2 days of our reservation.

The property is around 20 min from the train station. Taxi cost around 15-18 euros. If you like to walk and if you have good luggage with wheels, we recommend to walk and get familiar with the area. We spent 2 days as a base to go to cinqueceterre. The building facade is going through renovation and we were surprised we were not told about it but it was not disturbing at all. The room was spacious and very clean. My mother in law loved the coffee machine, foam maker for the capuchino and the breakfast taken to our room was delicious!

Great room, convenient and super clean
Staying at La Spezia was comfortable and easy. The room is in a building located within an easy walk to the commercial streets, with great shops and food. It’s on the third floor, and there is an elevator. It is not a traditional hotel, and there is no lobby but we got great, easy instructions in how to enter and, our contact with the hotel was always available. The room was impeccable and modern, super comfortable. There was a little bit of noise but it is on a city street, to be expected. The internet went out late at night, maybe due to an outage. Parking was offsite, at plaza Europa, a few blocks away. We suggest that place to park, it is safe and easy. Otherwise you’ll be fighting for a place on the streets and they are scarce. Overall, we definitely will be back at this place. We highly recommend it!!

Nice room but indeed just a ROOM
The room was nice & clean, the location was great but there was nobody around for check-in. That was not what I expected if "Check-in time 2PM - 7PM" is mentioned in the booking; personally I would expect someone to be around during the mentioned time frame. Instead there's a key box to which you get the code by whatsapp, all communication is by whatsapp, which at times was a bit rude (or maybe simply lacking englisch skills made it sound like it...). The rooms are inside a public building, guess there are some other flats / B&Bs as well as commercial / office space in it, the hallway way a bit spuky though. The booking mentioned "free offsite parking", which I find quite missleading... it simply means that in the town there is a free parking space, but in fact has nothing to do with the hotel.

Good base for Cinque Terre
Suits are located across two buildings and initially we went to the one the map on the app indicates, we had to wait a little while before we were collected and walked to the building we were staying in. The suit itself was fabulous, very clean and comfortable! We didn’t spend any time in La Spezia, but it was a great base to explore Cinque Terre from.

The LAST Hotel in La Spezia to book.
This is NOT a hotel. Getting into it is like trying to break into Fort Knox. Outside door has Security Key entry, Than two floors up again a security Key entry and than you are in a hallway with rooms with no key nor a number of a room. Nobody on site so after three calls and breaking into the second floor waited for a nice young gentlemen to let us in. Than we found out no Wifi was working and got a lame excuse that a Lighting storm disabled the Wifi that week and repairs not made yet. People in July, 3 months earlier had the same complaint. Room was OK but the aircon was not working fully even though it seems less than a year old. Next day needed a receipt of the stay and was told on the phone by the admin staff I would get it by mail in a few days. Never came and even after chasing Hotel.com it is still missing. My recommendation if you are travelling for Business AVOID this place. Should rename the Hotel(room) from The First to The LAST in La Spezia.

Apartment was fully renovated to impeccable standards. Access to apartment should be streamlined. At present, one key needed fro t door, one key needed for elevator, key pad w magnetic card to get into apartment, then another swipe of same card to get into our room. When leaving w luggage you can’t use elevator bc you will have returned the keys (as owner requested) and now you can carry luggage down 3 flights of stairs. Bummer!

NOT A HOTEL
Please be aware that this is not a hotel. It is an apartment area re-designed into separate, modern, independent rooms. There is no reception and no one that is actually there to greet you when you arrive. After one hour at 9:30pm we kind of found keys under rug at front door!!! Another guest helped us understand how AC, wifi and other things worked. Nevertheless, rooms are very confortables and nice. Bed has good quality sheets, bathroom is a good size and has hair drier, soap etc.

New property worth give it a try
We were a bit in doubt when we booked this as there was absolutely no review at all back then. However, we like what the room is like from the pictures so we deicided to give it a go and it proves we are right. It is modern and chic (of course it is new too), with attention to the little details like the bedside USB socket and tablet with wifi connection. Andrea is also very friendly and helpful thru out. Not only he had replied our email enquiry in detail, he has also called us several times to make sure we didnt get lost as we have taken more time than normal to reach the property. If I have to make any suggestion, I would suggest Andrea draw a simple map showing the route to drive to the property without entering the ZTL zone, as I have doubt on the routes suggested by both google map and Garmin.

6/10 Okay
