Perfect location to explore the mazy old town and around. Lively and colourful neighbourhood. Very neat and tidy guest house (and quiet when we were there). Our bedroom was spacious, spotless, comfortable . Bed & bed sheets were top-notch. Last but not least, our host Francesco was very pleasant, responsive, discreet and provided valuable information about the neighbourhood. Everything there was great! Highly recommended!

The location is very close to Port Antico and deep in the old town quarter. Frederico is a nice and helpful person, the room is simple but large enough and very clean. The bed is very good! I slept very well. There are three rooms to rent in the apartment which share a very clean bathroom. I would definitely come back, the location is just perfect.

Lots of stairs to get up but it only made you more fit!

Had everything you needed including a fan and windows that opened.

There are some stairs to climb but the owner advised us beforehand and offered support. It is also written in the description. But it’s not suitable for elderly people. There is no air conditioning, just a fan and it was hot and you can’t really keep your windows open because it is a lot of noise from outside.

The location is central, close to the Porto Antico, Piazza Ferrari and overall clean. The owner weary helpful with good recommendations. Lots of restaurants and shops around.

A fantastic location, well-kept and clean rooms and common areas, plus a very nice host! The shared bathroom was the cleanest I've ever seen.

A bit warm with windows closed, but needed screens on the windows as a mosquito came in. Didn't seem to be a good way to get the place cooler while sleeping. It is way up stairs, which was fine for us, but almost too far up stairs.

Excellent location in the old town.

It was exceptionally hot while we were there which made the stairs a bit of a challenge, but Francesco had messaged in advance to offer help with our bags.

Francesco is a lovely host and made us feel very welcome. The room was bright, large and comfortable. The location is great, right in the old town and near public transport links.

The walk up and down the several flights of stairs when entering and leaving the property may pose an issue for older or less physically abled people. For everyone else it should not be much of an issue.

Old Town Guest House offered a clean and comfortable room in an ideal location in the Genoa city centre. The street it is situated on is lively and quite safe even at night. You can easily walk to almost all of the major attractions in Genoa from here, as well as the Piazza Principe and Brignole train stations, within 15 minutes. Piazza de Ferrari is a five minute walk away, and from there you can easily catch the Volabus shuttle to and from the airport in thirty minutes or less. Our host Francesco was extremely organised, approachable and kind. Although the apartment is located on the upper floors of the building and there is no elevator, he ensured that he was always present to carry our suitcases up and down the stairs when checking in and out. He was easy to contact throughout our stay, and was diligent with ensuring the shared bathroom was cleaned regularly. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a conveniently located and well-maintained place to stay in Genoa.

Old Town Guest House was perfect for our one week vacation in Genoa and the Ligurian coast. The place has the best location in one of the prettiest streets in the Old Town. It is near a lot of cafes, restaurants, focaccerias, bars and shops. The appartment is very clean, spacious enough and has a lot of storage space. It's in walking distance to both train stations. And Francesco was a wonderful host. He allowed us an early check in, he was very helpful with advice and suggestions for places to eat and visit, and he replied very fast to all of our requests. I recommend the place and would definitely stay there again on my next trip to Genoa.

Nothing I didn't like but there are some downsides for some. No elevator, but was offered a hand with my bags on arrival. The steps are quite steep at bits but manageable. The street below is noisy in the evening. It didn't bother me it, it was comforting in a way being a solo traveler getting back to the room late and it wasn't too loud. Always got a good sleep! Google maps took me a dodgy route getting there with one side street. Thankfully it was day time but be careful travelling alone or at night like you would any city.

Excellent location with lots of good shops and eating options close by. Host was very professional and gave information about restaurants, beaches and breakfast places. Room was really clean and so was my en suite bathroom, really good shower too. Bed clean and comfortable. The bathroom had soap and shower gel provided. Also a hairdryer in the closet which I didn't use. Socket by the bed, good lighting and windows. The guest house itself was quiet and did not see anyone during my stay, after the host greeted me for check in. Great value for money. Really enjoyed my stay and very easy check out.
