We stayed in Santa Marta Rooms for two nights and had a fantastic experience! 1. Ideal location, right in the heart of Vernazza. The station is 1 min away and the water less than a 5 min walk along the main street. 2. Really nice room -- very clean and modern, and indeed even nicer than it looks in the pictures! 3. The bed was very comfortable, the WiFi, TV, AC in the room all worked great. 4. The bathroom was well-designed and well-equipped. 5. Our room also included a cute terrace with a table and chairs overlooking Vernazza's main street as well as some of the hills just beyond the town. 6. Communication was Alessandro, the host, was amazing -- he was available to answer all our questions, provided very useful info on local facilities, and was extremely kind and courteous throughout our stay.

Santa Marta Rooms are in a wonderful location just behind the main street in Vernazza, so very close to shops and restaurants. Our family stayed in two rooms, a double room with terrace overlooking the main street and the loft room. Both were very well furnished with modern bathrooms and immaculately clean. The beds were comfortable, great air conditioning, USB ports, good WIFI and tea/coffee making facilities for us to use. We had friendly communication from the owner before we arrived and when we left, he was a very nice guy. If you're planning to stay in Vernazza this is a very good choice.

The rooms were highly renovated and really well presented. Some food items are ready for you when you check in. The place was clean, amazing location, and the balcony was roomy and useful. Overall a fantastic stay.

This first item is not a criticism but just a caution. The stairs to this particular suite are very steep, see photos. It would really be great to have access to some beach towels. Also, to have some complimentary cold beverage upon arrival. Also, access to replacement bin liners and more toilet paper. Only minor things.

A great central location in the town of Vernazza. The balcony was a delight for relaxing in the evening.

The room is a good size & looks like it was renovated recently, nice atmosphere. Great balcony that overlooks the town. Just a few minutes walk from the train station. Easy self check-in & good communication. Breakfast items included (tea, coffee, biscuits, package crossaints, jam, toast crackers).

Leave the big suitcase in La Spezia as the stairs to the room are very steep (although they did offer to meet me & help with a suitcase if required). Sound proofing helps a lot but you can still hear the trains & noise from town/neighbours so pack some ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

The apartment was very clean and spacious. We were accommodated wonderfully. We had a fantastic view of the village, and we could sit in our balcony and enjoy the sunsets.

The only inconvenience was that the staircase was very steep, it made it difficult for one of my family members. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Location was amazing in village- 3 separate keys for entry so very safe for luggage and yourself. Nicely renovated inside. Loved the air con in both bedrooms and lounge. Terrace was great to dry wet items. Hosts were very contactable and helpful - beds were super comfortable also and we had great sleep ins

Only one sink in the bathroom. No other sink anywhere. Small lounge area with mini fridge however 2 bedrooms and 2 lounge chairs made up for everyone having own space

The 2 levels were very small. Only place to sit was 1 tiny stool downstairs. There was no beach towel in room. Staircase up to loft bed was steep. Best aspect was easy location from train station and room was clean. There were several snacks in room for breakfast. Have to pick up the bed to retrieve a blanket. Need 2 people to do this.
