Our B&B is located in a beautiful small square called Piazza San Matteo, is at 50 meters from the main square of the city, Piazza De Ferrari.

Our structure, which has been just renewed, is made up of 5 private rooms with private external bathroom. We also have two apartments with kitchens that can accommodate three or four people.

We are inside an historical building of the family Doria, built in the XVI century.

It's easy to get here, by bus, by metro and there is a public parking area very close.

We stayed one night in a really nice, cozy, and clean apartment. The hostess Elena was super kind. She allowed us to leave our luggage before check-in and after check-out. I recommend this property also for its strategic location, it is right in the center, a stone's throw away, between two of the most beautiful squares in Genoa.

We stayed one night in the mini apartment. The location is very convenient, right behind Palazzo Ducale. Cozy, well-equipped, and clean room. The staff is friendly and very helpful in meeting guests' needs. I would only suggest giving more precise directions on where to find the reception inside the building.

Superb location, right in the middle of all the main attractions, close to the metro. Lovely room. I highly recommend. The only thing is that it's advertised as a Bed and Breakfast, there are signs on the building and room doors saying that it is a Bed and Breakfast... but there is no breakfast.

The answer from the host:
Dear Bernice, thank you so much for your wonderful review! I would like to explain how my system works. you booked an apartment, with a fully equipped kitchen, I even put coffee pods, and on the reservation it was clearly written, BREAKFAST NOT INCLUDED. However, in B&Bs, guests who book rooms (not apartments) have breakfast included. But you can also book breakfast in the apartment for a fee. Best regards. elena

Location is great - right in the center next to the old town. Breakfast was delicious with cake and croissant, great juices, loads of other tasty stuff to choose from. Only grumble there would be the coffee but I'm being picky to say that. Otherwise it was perfectly quiet and clean, had great air con. I think it was good value for money. Overall I'd definitely recommend it.

The location is very good. Close to most areas you want to go, everything walkable. The apartment is also a good size, with a separate living room/kitchen. The fact that we could cook our own dinner and had a washing machine were big pluses. However, there are downsides too: \n- The closet was falling apart, the door was jammed, and it felt like it was holding the thing together. Don't use too much force...\n- There was an open electrical outlet, with the power cables hanging out loosely. \n- Initially, there were no blankets, even though it wasn't very warm anymore. \n- The host speaks decent English, but we were greeted by the cleaning lady and she literally did not speak any English words. However, she did her best with Google Translate, and if you go to Italy, you should realize that English is an issue for the whole country. \n- While they accept American Express during registration, they cannot charge the card normally. \n\nNo red flags or absolute no-goes, just things that made it less than perfect. All in all, a decent apartment, great location, lots of space inside, and a kitchen plus washing machine. Completely fine option, just not the best.

La struttura 'La Piazzetta Rooms' was, for me, in the best possible location in all of Genoa - right next to Piazza San Matteo, with its beautiful church. There were several great restaurants (one on either side of the property) and it was incredibly scenic and CENTRAL. Elena could not have been more accommodating, always with a smile on her face. My rooms were terrific - spacious and well-equipped. In fact, I could have lived there - nothing was lacking from the kitchen to the large bedroom to the modern bathroom to the rocking fast Wi-Fi. (Well, a bathtub rather than a shower would have been nice but uncommon in Italy).

Very nice structure, recently renovated, private clean bathrooms but all external to the rooms (I didn't understand this from the description) reachable just by stepping outside the room. Good central solution, let's say that if the owner were a little less "precious" it would be better...we rushed to arrive by 21:00 for check-in because "check-in closes at 9:00" and then when we arrived she said she would wait for other guests until 21:00/22:00...frankly I felt slightly deceived, I understand trying to get guests to arrive as soon as possible but if I warn over the phone that coming by car from Milan we can't manage the traffic uncertainty (we know the conditions of the Ligurian motorways at this time) and you respond with "check-in closes at 9:00", in the series "if you arrive well, otherwise your problem", let's say I don't feel very welcome... Breakfast from 8:30 to 10:00, we needed to leave at 8:30 so we had breakfast at 8:15 with what was available. Solution that I will consider for future trips to Genoa because overall the structure deserves it.

The air conditioning was not working properly when we returned in the evening to the apartment assigned by the owner. Being a craftsman, I first called her to report the malfunction, but on voicemail and without a response, I had to take out the filters and clean them myself because, full of dust, they were preventing the proper functioning of the appliance and causing an abnormal and annoying noise, not allowing for a peaceful night. At lunch, I mentioned this to the owner, who denied everything, telling me that she had checked the installation before our arrival. Her authoritarian and dishonest attitude left a bitter taste with both me and my partner. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone due to the behavior of the owner, Elena, who greeted us in such a way.

Ci siamo trovati benissimo in questo B&B, per l'accoglienza prima di tutto (le premure della titolare ci hanno fatto sentire coccolati: grazie!) e poi perché la stanza era nuova e silenziosissima, pur essendo la struttura in pieno centro e quindi comoda sia per visitare la zona del porto che per i servizi (la stazione è a 10 minuti). Colazione a buffet in cui davvero non manca nulla. Ritorneremo sicuramente!

Globalement, ce B. & B. est excellent. Il est très bien situé, au cœur de la vieille ville de Gènes. Le propriétaire est charmant et très attentionné pour ses hôtes. Les chambres sont très spacieuses, confortables et décorées avec beaucoup de goût. Les salles de bains sont bien équipées et étaient d'une propreté irréprochable. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et varié. Nous n'avons eu qu'un seul vrai problème: l'accès en voiture étant totalement impossible, il faut essayer de s'arrêter le plus près possible, transporter les bagages à pied sur deux cents mètres et aller garer la voiture dans un parking public. Tout ça n'est pas simple quand on n'est plus très jeune. Par ailleurs, la vie matinale commence tôt à Gênes et il devient difficile de dormir au-delà de sept heures du matin, si l'on a laissé la fenêtre ouverte.
