Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“A great location on a quiet street/canal (in reality a moat) in the central "Venice quarter" of Livorno. Our room had a lovely view over the canal and pretty décor with antique bed and stencil-pattern walls. Very clean and comfortable, friendly owner.”
“We really enjoyed our stay here. Massimo was quick to respond and very accommodating (considering our last minute reservation). The apartment we stayed in was spacious and clean, the bed was very comfortable and we had a great view on Forza Nuova. Walking distance from Venezia Nuova. Great value for money and pet-friendly (upon request).”
