The location in the station area is very convenient for taking the train and visiting the Cinque Terre (3 minutes on foot). It is also convenient for reaching the center of La Spezia. As for the area at night, it can obviously be debatable (we knew it in advance). One evening we had to shut the condominium door in the face of a suspicious person who tried to get in without authorization. The host was very kind and helpful. The room is small but equipped with everything needed and very clean. The bathroom is quite spacious and clean. The apartment is well lit both in the sleeping area and in the bathroom, and well soundproofed from street noise (room 301 faces the inner street).

The stay at the accommodation was very good. Everything was excellent. The included breakfast was very good. The host let us stay until the time our train departed. Everything was very good. I would come back.

The boiler, which was probably the only one for the three rooms, emitted an unpleasant smell during the night.

This accommodation boasts a strategic location, ideal for those traveling between the central station and the vibrant heart of La Spezia. The rooms, recently renovated, are located on the third floor of a charming period building without an elevator. One small drawback is the noisy air conditioner, but the kindness and incredible helpfulness of the host Manuel, always ready to help and advise, make the stay truly pleasant and worry-free.

The location is excellent, 100 meters from the train station and very close to restaurants and shopping. This location is truly a find, well worth it. The room is very spacious and super comfortable, as well as being very clean. The only drawback is that the air conditioning was quite noisy and had broken vents, blowing air onto the floor, making it difficult to cool the room. I highly recommend it.

We stayed at this accommodation for 4 nights and recommend it for those who, like us, need to explore the 5 Lands or the surrounding area. It is literally located a stone's throw from La Spezia's central station and is a perfect base for getting into the city center. The room is clean, comfortable, and well-kept, and Manuel is a very attentive, kind, and helpful host. The building where the room is located is a bit dated and does not have an elevator; for us, it was not a problem, but it should be noted in case you have particular mobility difficulties. Excellent value for money.

The only inconvenience is the stairs to reach the third floor. Otherwise, the rooms are comfortable and clean.

The location and contact person were great. However, the bedding should be renewed. The room smelled musty, it lacks aeration.

Raggio di Sole turned out to be the best choice for staying in La Spezia, especially for those, like me, who intend to visit the Cinque Terre. The proximity (a few minutes on foot) to the station adds a lot of value to the structure. Moreover, the manager was very attentive, available, and precise in the explanations. The room was spacious, bright, well-equipped, and quiet! I have nothing negative to report! Everything was perfect! Highly recommended! (I did not use the breakfast service, so I could not express myself regarding that).

The old palace looks old at first glance, and I did not expect such a modern and well-kept room. The owner welcomed us in a truly hospitable way and during our stay, he was always available on WhatsApp to give us advice, being a local.

You can't beat this location if you want to explore Cinque Terre and La Spezia. And a good solution for the breakfast (across the street). The only thing we didn't like was the very loud air conditioning which had to be turned off because of the noise. Which means the room gets hot.

Very pleasant and very clean accommodation. In addition, the bedding is of quality. The accommodation is ideally located to go to the train station, which is also its drawback with a very busy and therefore noisy street. We are very happy, Manuel has been responsive and attentive.
