We were looking for a base to explore Cinque Terre and were recommended La Spezia for its central location and easy access to the five towns. When we found this property, we were initially hesitant due to its newness and lack of reviews, but I’m so glad we booked it. You won’t regret staying here!
Matilda, who manages the property (we stayed in unit 47) is absolutely wonderful. Her hospitality made our stay feel even more special—she was flexible with our check-in and check-out times, answered all our questions, and left snacks and water for us daily after cleaning the apartment, which felt like a personal touch.
The apartment is new, modern, and well-equipped for a comfortable stay. We loved the cozy layout, especially the separate dining area for meals and coffee. Plus, it has air conditioning, a huge plus for summer visitors. The location is very convenient—just a short walk to the central train station with grocery stores nearby.
While the apartment doesn’t have a full kitchen or a washing machine, this was expected and didn’t detract from our experience. It’s also worth noting that the unit is close to the train station and a roadside, so you’ll hear some noise, but it’s quiet at night.
Overall, we loved the clean, modern furnishings, but what made our stay truly memorable was Matilda’s warm and thoughtful hosting. It felt like we were visiting family. We highly recommend 3L Luxury Rooms for anyone staying in La Spezia!
