A perfect day for our family.

We were here in the busiest, hottest part of August (temperatures at 90F/32C). The listing clearly says there is no air-conditioning, so we knew we wouldn’t have it, but know that the apartment doesn’t cool down much at night. There is a ceiling fan above the bed and a small table fan in the dining room, but they do little. The apartment is on the main street near the train station, which is wonderfully convenient, but at night with the windows open, the street noise and passing trains are incredibly loud. We wore earplugs and were still woken up every time a train passed. The heat and the noise aren’t a fault with the apartment, it’s just something to consider depending on your noise and heat tolerance. The apartment itself is spacious, but quirky with a strange jumble of furniture and grandmother decor. There’s good water pressure and hot water, and having a washing machine was wonderful! They even provided clips so you could hang your clothes out to dry outside (hang out the window!). The stairs up to the apartment are very steep and very narrow, so be prepared for that, too. It’s great for what it is: a quirky and somewhat odd place, in a beautiful old building with a good location.

Great location, steps away from the train station and the vernazza beach area. Only one flight of stairs to the property. Big spacious rooms and bathroom with laundry. No air conditioning but fans available. Kitchen is fully equipped too. Would stay again for the convenience of the location.
