    Nothing really.

    The building is absolutely stunning, with views on a gorgeous piazza and church. The suite for 4 people was spacious, clean, well equipped and with comfortable beds. The hosts were very caring, welcoming and accommodating. We could leave our bags early on arrival and, on the day of departure, I took unwell and the host went above and beyond to help me. He couldn’t have been more caring. The hosts also accommodated the dietary requirements of the group and gave us great suggestions for dinner options. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

    It was a little frustrating when people hadn’t closed the elevator doors so you had to walk up five floors but this only happened once, and not the hosts fault.

    Georgio was a fantastic host! He went above and beyond sharing great places to eat, having our room ready early and ordering us a taxi on departure. The location was amazing and breakfast was delicious… especially the homemade cakes!

    Centrally located, short walking distance to Piazza de Ferrari and Porto Antico with all its attractions. Spacious, clean and quiet rooms. Our room was overlooking San Mateo church. Giorgio was very accommodating and flexible. He also booked our taxi for the airport. Delicious breakfast with great choice of fruit, yogurt, cake and unbeatable focaccia genovese.

    Unfortunately we missed the breakfast but that was due to our own travel plans.

    The property host was very responsive and friendly. He was available for check in and gave us a lot of information. Unfortunately they were not able to accommodate the breakfast to two days we were there, so we didn't get to try that. They did provide a little apple cake/bread for us to have still.

    Nothing loved everything about it

    In a perfect spot in the old town of Genova. The room was specious very clean and light. The bedside lamp also had usb port which was super helpful has we only had 1 adapter with us. Breakfast was lovely and the product very fresh and seasonal. Giorgio was very helpful with instructions of how to find the property and gave us a lot of information about the city and local restaurants

    Didn't cause us a problem but there is no lift until you reach the first floor. Some people may struggle. We were at the rear of the building and Sunday evening was extremely noisy (at 11pm for an hour). One of the restaurants was moving beer barrels, tables and chairs down the alley. Not the owners fault at all.

    Great location. Close to all local attractions. Staff were lovely from arrival to the day we departed. Excellent breakfast. We were spoilt. On our last morning we had to leave early and the lady wrapped our cake to take with us. Lovely room. Spotless and clean everywhere.

    The bathroom was separate from the room and you had a short walk to it via a public corridor.

    Wonderful location - near the train station and the metro, close to great places to eat and all the marvellous historical buildings within walking distance. Giorgio was very helpful and gave very useful information. The room was beautiful and very clean.

    People with mobility issues will find it hard to negotiate the steps before reaching the lift in the entrance.

    Fantastic location in Genoa. Lorenzo met us at the property and gave us a very good run down on how everything works over a welcoming cup of tea.

    That time flies when visiting Genova.

    On arrival the first thought was what was it I had booked, but when stepping in to the B&B it all felt so welcoming. Breakfast was great, we had a wonderful plate of fruit every morning. Everything was clean and the owner and the woman who helps him are both very kind. This B&B is perfectly located close to both buses and metro at De Ferrari. I will definitely book this B&B if coming back some day.

    The breakfast was great. The location was amazing. The room had an unbearable musty smell if the windows did not remain open. I think the smell was just a product of being such an old building, but still I’m glad I wasn’t there for more than two nights. The private bathroom was outside the room which wasn’t clear in the description (I should have read the other reviews closer), but there is a key to lock it from the outside so you’re sure others don’t use it.
