Cleanliness is widely praised, and many mention reliable air conditioning and good showers; however, some reported a firm bed, occasional AC problems, noise from the main street, or a private bathroom located down the hall. There is no breakfast service, but coffee, tea, and packaged snacks are supplied. A straightforward base for exploring Cinque Terre.

Practical choice if you just need a bed and to be close to the water and not much else. Make sure you request bathroom in the unit when booking, otherwise you may get one you'd need to trek to down the hallway with a key. Make sure also the promise to clean the room on a certain day is followed through, as we were promised one-time cleaning but no one showed up so we had to cope and ration the shower gel etc. Loud in-room AC could wake you up each time it started. If these were no big deal to you, this place is for you.

We loved this property. We were on the blue room. The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was fantastic with a great shower. We loved the little balcony. The air conditioning was amazing and such a relief after a hot day. Coffee, snacks and a mini fridge were provided. The only thing of note is the stairs. It is two floors up but seriously worth every step.

The property is about a 10 minute walk through the tunnel then up the street to number 99. The little balcony overlooking the street was a nice touch. There is no elevator and you are going up 3 flights of stairs to the room, so plan ahead for your stay and pack accordingly. Maddy met us at the room to make sure we had a good feel for 5 Terre and the area. Very glad we stayed in 5 Terre.

The Cinque terre village of Riomaggiore is very unique The homes are situated on steep hills plus have plenty of stairs to climb to get to your accommodation. It requires one to be in great shape/physically fit. Not great if you have mobility issues. That being said, our place was great and had everything we needed. I did find it hard to sleep as the curtains were sheer like and not dark enough to block out light, so bring an eye mask. Maddy, the owner, gave us lots of information of things we needed to know and left a basket of packaged goodies, water, teas and coffee. We loved the views from different areas of the village and spent time visiting the other villages as well. 2 days wasn't enough.

We just finished a 5 night stay here and cannot say anything bad! Maddy the host was absolutely PHENOMENAL! Great communication beforehand with directions and general info. We utilized the parking spots and Maddy was so kind and met us to show us where to park, then walked us to the unit (priceless). The unit itself is very convenient to shops and restaurants, and easy to navigate to the train station. Maddy gave us tons of info when we checked in that helped a lot, especially after an extremely long travel day. As with most places in Italy, be ready to haul your bags up/down steep inclines and steps. Can't recommend this place more!

Väldigt bra läge på huvudgatan i Riomaggiore. Fantastisk värdinna som gjorde sitt yttersta för att ge bra och relevant information om omgivningarna. Rent och praktiskt med rymligt badrum, välfunktionerande AC, litet kylskåp o kaffemaskin. Dock mycket enkelt och ingen lyx/myskänsla. Även flera smala trappor utan hiss att bära upp väskorna för.

After travelling Italy for two weeks, this was the worst accommodation of all of them. The reason for choosing it was the promise of air conditioning but it was broken. The flat is on the high street which is very noisy past midnight, so sleeping with windows open was impossible. The room has coffee machine and some cups and plates but no cutlery or a way to wash the dishes.

My stay was pleasant. It was advised my room would have a separate but private bathroom. Positives are it’s very much within the village and all its beauty. Negatives are a very uncomfortable bed, an ant infestation , no TV and no breakfast. There are some sweet biscuits and small packed croissants and coffee. No milk. For €120 I suppose it’s what you might expect for Riomaggiore but there must be better choices available.

Il BoMa is perfectly located half-way down the hill from the entrance to the Riomaggiore pedestrian district and the marina. Our hostess gave us all the information we needed to make our stay lovely, from things to do to places to eat. Her recommendations were spot on! The room was very clean and big enough for two, though not spacious; bathroom was the best we’ve had in Italy, with space and a great shower. While we knew that there would be no breakfast, Coffee, tea, and lemoncello were provided, with some store-bought pastries if you didn’t want to purchase the wonderful offerings just outside the door. We recommend this little gem - of a town and a hotel - if you go to Cinque Terre!

Maddie was an excellent host and takes good care of the room and her guests. Always available when we had questions. We stayed in the standard room which had the private bathroom down the hallway, which we were nervous about but it was no problem. The bathroom is large and their is a shelf where you can keep your toiletries so you don’t have to carry them back and forth. The light in the hallway turns on automatically and the hallway is clean so it was absolutely fine. We never even ran into anyone in the hallway. Very convenient laundry a few doors down,

Great place to stay in Riomaggiore. We loved the fact that it was in the main street which allowed us to enjoy our balcony view. We felt welcomed since the start. She provided us with so many attractions we could do and recommendations that we appreciated. The hotel is located near by the train station which makes it easy to navigate from one to another town. We would say overall this hotel was a great pick since we didn’t have anything to complain about but just love everything about it. Would totally stay here again and will recommend to my loved ones.

Even though my stay was only three nights, I was able to do a lot of activities because of Maddy’s info and tips. Her restaurant recommendations were also helpful. Thank you Maddy and Franco.

Maddy was great. Met us at the entrance to town, brought us to the private parking and then to the property. Provided a map, instructions for options of visiting the 5 terre and where the ferry and train stations were, as well as the walking path. Recommended certain places to eat and explained why (eg this one changes the frying oil often, this one serves fresh pizza, not frozen),m. Arranged a porter to bring our bags back to the car (Riomaggiore has serious stairs and hills, and an elevator that may or may not be open). She even told us where to go to get the best photos of Riomaggiore. Great shower. Great location. Comfy bed. Not one complaint.

She even told us where to go to get the best photos of Riomaggiore. Great shower. Great location. Comfy bed. Not one complaint.

We loved our stay here. It’s right in the middle of Riomaggiore so it’s not easy to get to but it’s totally worth it. The owners give very specific instructions on how to get in both by car and train. We came in by car but there is very limited parking so I would suggest trying to go in by train. It’s very easy to access the train to the other villages of Cinqueterre and the owners are very good about giving all the information you need to get around. There is a lot of walking both up and down hill so just be prepared. Would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay in Riomaggiore. We loved the fact that it was in the main street which allowed us to enjoy our balcony view. We felt welcomed since the start. She provided us with so many attractions we could do and recommendations that we appreciated. The hotel is located near by the train station which makes it easy to navigate from one to another town. We would say overall this hotel was a great pick since we didn’t have anything to complain about but just love everything about it. Would totally stay here again and will recommend to my loved ones.

Maddy was knowledgeable, accommodating and a delight! We loved our stay 100% No need for parking everything was walkable from our room. Beautiful views, easy access to the beach, dining, shops, train station, kayak rentals & ferry. On our way out we truly appreciated the access to the public elevator!

Il BoMa is perfectly located half-way down the hill from the entrance to the Riomaggiore pedestrian district and the marina. Our hostess gave us all the information we needed to make our stay lovely, from things to do to places to eat. Her recommendations were spot on! The room was very clean and big enough for two, though not spacious; bathroom was the best we’ve had in Italy, with space and a great shower. While we knew that there would be no breakfast, Coffee, tea, and lemoncello were provided, with some store-bought pastries if you didn’t want to purchase the wonderful offerings just outside the door. We recommend this little gem - of a town and a hotel - if you go to Cinque Terre!

Great location. Quiet with cute balcony. You can close the shutters to make it darker. Lots of stairs but that's part of being in Cinque Terre!

My stay was pleasant. It was advised my room would have a separate but private bathroom. Positives are it’s very much within the village and all its beauty. Negatives are a very uncomfortable bed, an ant infestation , no TV and no breakfast. There are some sweet biscuits and small packed croissants and coffee. No milk. For €120 I suppose it’s what you might expect for Riomaggiore but there must be better choices available.

It was perfect! For some reason I never received instructions from the app, but Maddy welcomed us and gave us instructions and very useful tips on how to move around Cinque Terre and where to eat. The place is perfectly located, it’s a beautiful room with a balcony to the main street in Riomaggiore. It was spacious and clean equipped with the basics. Maddy left some pastries for us, and a bottle of her homemade limoncello in the fridge. We fell in love with Riomaggiore, if we ever come back we’ll definitely stay here again.

The Cinque terre village of Riomaggiore is very unique The homes are situated on steep hills plus have plenty of stairs to climb to get to your accommodation. It requires one to be in great shape/physically fit. Not great if you have mobility issues. That being said, our place was great and had everything we needed. I did find it hard to sleep as the curtains were sheer like and not dark enough to block out light, so bring an eye mask. Maddy, the owner, gave us lots of information of things we needed to know and left a basket of packaged goodies, water, teas and coffee. We loved the views from different areas of the village and spent time visiting the other villages as well. 2 days wasn't enough.

Maddy was great. Met us at the entrance to town, brought us to the private parking and then to the property. Provided a map, instructions for options of visiting the 5 terre and where the ferry and train stations were, as well as the walking path. Recommended certain places to eat and explained why (eg this one changes the frying oil often, this one serves fresh pizza, not frozen),m. Arranged a porter to bring our bags back to the car (Riomaggiore has serious stairs and hills, and an elevator that may or may not be open). She even told us where to go to get the best photos of Riomaggiore. Great shower. Great location. Comfy bed. Not one complaint.
