Hey from Riccardo

Member since August 2005 | 138,603 hits

We are Sabrina and Riccardo, we have been managing the B&B La Maddalena since 2004. After a long break for renovation we have reactivated the B&B with renovated rooms and bathrooms for exclusive use.

In our structure you can breathe a family atmosphere but the layout of the house still allows us to guarantee the privacy of our guests.

We love our city and we like the idea of being able to make Genoa somehow known through our eyes.

Guests consistently praise the central location, making it easy to explore Genoa on foot and reach major attractions. The hosts are repeatedly described as friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, providing useful tips for sightseeing and local dining. Rooms and common areas are clean, comfortable, and set within a historic building, though it's worth noting there is no elevator and some rooms may have external bathrooms for exclusive use. The value for money is highlighted as excellent. While some mention occasional street noise or the challenge of stairs, the overall atmosphere is welcoming, making for a pleasant and highly recommended stay.

Central location, very convenient and full of character (in the heart of the alleys), and relatively quiet. Close to the metro, and therefore to the port and Principe station. Spacious room and clean bathroom outside the room. Breakfast average but provided. Host extremely helpful and kind. Positive note for the many books, brochures and guides available in the common areas.

The accommodation is very clean, the owners are kind and welcoming, we had a great time. I recommend it if you want to experience living in the heart of Genoa. Along the street, there are establishments run by foreigners, but we never had any problems.

The room is located in an apartment with a common area that can be accessed by other guests who have a room with an external bathroom and the owners themselves who live there. The room is very spacious with vintage furniture, while the bathroom is modern. The floor creaks a bit and the shower door has issues. On the plus side, the owner is very helpful. The location is really great even though the 4 flights of stairs are noticeable.

Ciao, Michael grazie per la tua recensione, non riesco a capire però perché specifichi che la stanza si trova in un appartamento dove vivono i proprietari. Forse quando hai prenotato non ti sei accorto di farlo in un B&B che è.

Accommodation in a central structure, refined and in a beautiful and elegant building. The two rooms are in one wing of the owners' apartment. The bathroom is external to the room in my case, but quite convenient. Heating, WiFi, television, ample space, kettle with tea/herbal teas, etc. Ideal for those who want to visit the ancient and authentic center of Genoa and for those who do not have problems with the street, Via della Maddalena, a bit "lively". A short walk from the central station (trains to Camogli, Cinque Terre, Bogliasco, Nervi, etc.) and from the cathedral, Columbus' house, Piazza de Ferrari, the Rolli palaces, the port.

I needed to stay at the property for four weeks and already at the time of my arrival, the couple Sabrina and Riccardo expressed their incredible hospitality with enthusiasm and sincere courtesy. Their availability and attention to my every need made the entire long stay truly pleasant and comfortable. The apartment is located in a historic building and the rooms available to guests are furnished and equipped with attention to small details. The context is very comfortable and cozy, enriched by a precious terrace with a view of the rooftops of Genoa available to guests at any time of the day. A dream! Living in the heart of the city allows one to walk and admire the stunning beauties of majestic Genoa. Public transport is punctual and efficient. The cleanliness of the rooms is excellent, meticulous even in the most hidden corners of the room and bathroom. The linen is spotless and of high quality. I will always be grateful to Sabrina and Riccardo for the fabulous stay. I will return both for the beauties of the city and for the hospitality and welcome of the homeowners.

Our room was not only incredibly comfortable but also impeccably clean, providing a relaxing and cozy atmosphere. Although the bathroom is located outside the room, it is exclusively for your use, offering privacy and convenience. The accommodation is perfectly situated in the heart of the city’s historical center, making it easy to explore the area. Sabrina also shared fantastic local recommendations that helped us plan our trip. Thanks to her suggestions, we discovered some hidden gems and had a truly memorable experience.

Sabrina and Riccardo welcomed us and made us feel at home, and patiently guided us in discovering this poignant and superb city with its multiple styles, colors, and flavors that will amaze you at every corner or glimpse. I highly recommend the establishment, it is the best way to truly experience the beating heart of Genoa up close. I will definitely return soon.

Sabrina is an attentive and energetic host. She gives excellent advice on visiting the city, finding a nice restaurant, or buying quality regional products. The four floors are exhausting, but the rooms are pleasant, as is the small terrace, which is very convenient for smokers! The only negative note: the neighborhood. Located in the old streets of the old port, which has undeniable charm, La Maddalena street is rather noisy (especially on weekends) because of the Latin bars and the women who work there... Otherwise, the B&B is very good!

Great room, very spacious. Very kind owners. In the city center close to everything and in a historic building, without an elevator though. Just a pity about the POS, nowadays receiving digital payments is possible at reasonable costs, so not having it is a drawback.

stayed from 11/01/2023 to 11/05/2023

The answer from the host:
Siamo un piccolo b&b con solo due stanze e un pos in realtà ci sembrava veramente eccessivo, faremmo massimo 2 transazioni a settimana. I costi sono fissi per attivarlo e c è una percentuale per ogni transazione, è sempre molto soggettivo parlare di costi "adeguati", abbiamo scelto di fare dei prezzi più accessibili per i nostri clienti piuttosto che dare una percentuale alle banche. Ci spiace comunque se per voi è stato un problema, ci rifletteremo. Buon proseguimento per tutto. Saluti Sabrina

francesca

An excellent choice for staying in Genoa. The B&B is located in a historic building and has been beautifully restored. The room is large and beautiful, with a wardrobe and drawers, perfect lighting, and a desk, an important detail for someone like me who needs to write or use the pc in the evening. The B&B is really centrally located. I never took public transportation in 3 days, except to go to Boccadasse (which is quite a few kilometers away). Everything is very beautiful, clean, and well organized. I had the room with the bathroom separated from the bedroom, but for my exclusive use. It was not inconvenient at all. In the room, there is a kettle with cups and some herbal teas. Everything is new, very clean, and fragrant (which is very important to me). Sabrina welcomed me, with advice on where to dine and about the city in general. Maps and brochures are not lacking. Delightful Sabrina and delightful her breakfasts. Just agree with her on a time to have it, because she prepares it at the moment. If instead you do not want schedules, the B&B is so centrally located that you will find all the bars, clubs, and shops you desire. The property is on the fourth floor without an elevator, so the only contraindication is if you have mobility problems. Otherwise, if I return to Genoa, I will stay here again, a phrase I rarely write. Sabrina was also so kind as to keep my luggage the morning after check out, so I could continue to stroll in the city until the last moment. An excellent place, do not miss it, really.

The building itself is interesting, there is some noise from the streets, but everything as can be expected in the city center of Genova. It couldn't be better located if you plan to stay in the Old City. A small kitchen with fridge and coffee machine is also available, our room was very spacious and everything was clean.

Great location to visit the Aquarium, the Maritime Museum, and the various points of interest at the old port. Breakfast was not provided (due to Covid) but the manager, very kind, provided us with a good coffee and a snack for the child every morning. The drawer full of toys was precious during the breaks of our stay in Genoa, a wonderful city where we can't wait to return!

Big room right in the center (easy to walk from the station) at a terrific price, and the truly delightful host leaves you tons of tourist information and took lots of time to explain things and give recommendations. She made it feel like staying with a friend.

The B&B La Maddalena is located in a historic building from the 17th century, the location is ideal to reach the most interesting places in Genoa on foot in a very short time. It's pleasant to get lost in the narrow streets among the local establishments and historical shops. Very clean, the managers are available, very kind and generous with advice and suggestions. I believe the quality-price ratio is unrivaled.

Riccardo welcomed us with courtesy. The B&B La Maddalena was very clean and welcoming. The lack of air conditioning is noticeable, but all in all we slept well. New and clean bathroom. Very kind and hospitable. Reserved. The location is strategic, close to everything, even the Minerva parking works well. The downside is the many steps. The floor of the room is semi-loose and the street is not very recommendable, especially at night. Otherwise satisfied.

The building where it is located is wonderful, the only flaw is that there is no parking but in Genoa it is practically impossible to park near the center. But a few steps are really worth it! I would say great even those who manage it are very helpful and kind.

Ideal for uncomplicated travelers who appreciate sharing the house with a lovely family happy to provide insider information and who love the charm of old buildings in a very old and narrow lane. Some nights the streets are quiet, some not: in that case close the windows. All historical sights and the sea/aquarium are within walking distance.

Sabrina and Riccardo are exceptional hosts who know how to welcome and receive well. They are attentive and present while being discreet and show themselves available to talk to us about their city, Genoa, which they love. They gladly answer all questions and do not hesitate to give good addresses. It was a real pleasure to meet them. The B&B La Maddalena is very pleasant and tastefully furnished. Just to note that there is no elevator.

My sister-in-law and I stayed here on a Saturday. We received useful information for our stay right away, even before leaving (e.g. parking area hours). Despite our delay, Riccardo was helpful and courteous. Excellent recommendation for where to dine, what to see, and a magnificent wake-up with a great and abundant breakfast. Nice idea of the tart in a portion suitable for two people. Thanks for everything.

The stay was really pleasant, the managers are fantastic and helpful, they make you feel at home and the breakfast is punctual and excellent for all tastes. The delicacies are handmade, there is nothing packaged and everything is truly delicious. The room was spacious and very clean! The location is very central and strategic, too bad not seeing the sea from the room.. Overall everything was very positive, I would gladly return!
