Affittacamere Patrizia Reviews

Different apartments spread across the little town of Riomaggiore, but a great place to explore Cinque Terre from.

very basic but comfy beds, ok shower and bathroom, fantastic view.

Perfect location near the harbour- absolutely lovely lady who looked after us. Would stay again any day

This is my second time staying with Lucciano's hostel. He owns 2 apartments next-door that he converted into dorm-room style hostels. the fact that they have a full kitchen is great, because people just buy food in the small markets and cook dinner together. our first night there, all 6 people in the hostel were cooking dinner, and it was a super fun night of travelers and guitar playing. and Cinque Terre is the most amazing location. and the hostel was in the perfect spot in the city too.

I won't go there again. ever. it's not hostel.

The location of this hostel was really good it was right next to the water, but that may vary because i think they have multiple hostel location. It was a typical hostel with many beds in a room, a kitchen, bathroom, etc. The only problem that i had was with the staff, not directly though. The office was suppose to open at 10:30, but there was no body there for at least an hour, at that point i gave up for a while.

Fantastic location, wonderfully helpful staff...would stay here again.

Room was practically in a dungeon with very little natural light. Very overpriced compared to other accomodation on Ligurian coast. Can do much better!

This hostel is a great place to stay for a night, right near the marina. It's not the fanciest hostel, but our 11-bed dorm included two bathrooms and a kitchen. The facilities were clean and simple, and the owner was very accommodating. We were supposed to check in before 7 p.m. (the latest check-in time), but train delays led to our arrival around 7:30. However, after calling ahead to the owner, he made sure to wait for us. The main con was the lack of a place to store luggage after checkout.

With good roomaters i have a great night! the location is very good but is a simple place to sleep in riomaggiore. But with a so beauty place, i only want to be in the hostel for sleep.

Really enjoyed my stay here. The owner was very friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean. Walk down the stairs and your right at the water!

no wifi or lockers but nice hot showers and the apartment we stayed in was close to the train station

It is not exactly a hostel. It is a small apartment with a kitchen and two rooms for 10 people. If you do not have any intention to stay in the room for so long I would recommend it. The security depends of the people sharing the room as there is no reception or something like that. Also because of that it can be really noise if the people do not respect it. I had this kind of problem in the first night.

too small, too many beds in the room, clean bathroom and very close to marina , train and center

The appartments are in a different location to the reception so I wouldnt recommend this place to young travelers. Though the reception staff were nice there is no one managing the premises and there are no hostel facilities as such. The place was clean but there were WAY too many beds in the appartment -the kitchen had 6-8 beds in it! It was large and had all the utensils you would need but we could not cook or hang out in it as people were sleeping! Fine for one or two nights but no more.

There were no regulations and the other people in the dorm kept us up all night and had absolutely no respect. They essentially were trying to be loud when we politely asked them to be quiet. They decided to hang out in the room all night. There needs to be some sort of accountability and courtesy guideline if nothing else

This place was the cutest thing ever! An absolutely gorgeous view overlooking the chiesa in Riomaggiore, and the beautiful Ligurian sea. The room was a great size for four people, and very clean with fresh linens and nice tiled bathrooms. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who wants a quaint, quiet stay in Riomaggiore--just like the locals all around the apartment/hostel. Be prepared to hike up to the rooms, though! It was at the tip top of town, but definitely worth it!

Overall the hostel was clean and fairly nice. However had a very big issue with the hostel on the last night - as there were no other guests staying in our dorm they decided to turn off all electricity to the apartment. This meant packing in pitch black, no fan during the night, no hot showers and no way to charge our laptops/ipods for the 12 hr journey that awaited us. In addition we left them a note asking if they could please call to explain why this was, heard nothing. Very poor form.

This place is totally kooky. The check-in is nowhere near the rooms but fortunately the dorms are situated about 4 seconds from the water. Awesome. Riomaggiore is the southernmost Cinque Terre town so from here you can hike all five towns in one fell swoop. Kitchen included, two bathrooms per dorm, close quarters - so you're forced to socialise! Only downer is the lack of internet. Several local cafes offer wi-fi but none in hostel. Ouch.

While the room was clean, the towels had gross orange spots on them. Additionally, the room was right next to the train, so the whole place rumbled and shook every time a train went time, and there was a noisy hostel right next door. Most annoying though was that the reception was only open 10:30-19:00 (!) so we had to go all the way to La Spezia to drop our bags the next morning. Appalling. It cost us a lot of time and train fair.
