    accessibility challenge
    heavy luggage issue

    I enjoyed my stay in a spacious room with beautiful high frescoed ceilings and a cozy atmosphere. The staff was welcoming and offered helpful guidance, making me feel right at home. accessing the hotel involved climbing numerous stairs, which can be challenging with heavy luggage.

    hotel charm
    privacy issues
    outdated facilities

    charming decor, spacious room, original frescos

    The absence of an elevator is a real hassle for those with heavy luggage!!! The hair dryer needs replacing as it's multiple duct-taped and not functioning well!!! Worn-out towels could use a refresh!!! Privacy issues from old door locks may not suit everyone's taste.

    Warm hospitality and charming decor

    I had a lovely stay at this hotel, with spacious rooms and a unique charm, featuring beautiful frescoed ceilings. The owners were incredibly welcoming, making me feel right at home and guiding me with helpful maps and local tips. I wish the shower had provided better water temperature control.

    Recommend for an overnight stopping

    Charming building, friendly staff, the historic ceiling in our room was simply stunning and we appreciated having an electric kettle and a small fridge for added convenience.

    Utterly happy with everything.

    well-equipped room
    relaxing lounge
    charming garden
    steep stairs

    I really enjoyed my short stay, especially how the room had everything I needed, including a small fridge and electric kettle! The lounge and garden area offered a nice chill zone to unwind after a long day. Just a heads-up, the stairs can be quite the workout, but it didn't take away from my overall experience. 😊

    cozy atmosphere
    delicious breakfast
    stair access

    Had a great time with friends at this hotel. It's close to everything we wanted to see, like the stunning Palazzo Ducale and De Ferrari square. We also enjoyed shopping at Mercato Orientale Genova. The breakfast was delicious, and the atmosphere was cozy. Perfect for a group getaway!

    The room's access involved a lot of stairs, which was not the easiest for carrying our luggage. But it didn't overshadow our overall experience.

    clean room
    great location
    no elevator
    lots of stairs

    the hosts were super friendly and really helpful. room was clean, comfy and well equipped. The ceiling is like a frickin museum! vending machines were cheap, and the location is perfect, just 5 mins walk to the train station and old town.

    only problem was there were a lot of stairs and no elevator, so it can be tough with heavy bags!

    charming decor
    great location
    no elevator

    Lovely spot for strolls to the train station and the old port. Super convenient with nearby eateries, yet head into the old city for more options. Charming decor added a delightful touch to my stay, felt like home!

    Beware of the stairs! My bags made me feel like an Olympic weightlifter on the way up!
